Notes: In the recipe, "grits" means corn meal.

Because I used corn meal, I had to make a separate cereal mash from my main mash. I used the following website for instructions on how to performa a cereal mash:
http://byo.com/component/k2/item/442-cereal-mashing-techniques

First, I took 85% of the 2-row and began my main mash as normal (150F). At the same time in a separate pot to make the cereal mash, I took the remaining 15% of the 2-row and all of the corn meal and mixed it with enough water to suspend the grains ("a thin gruel-like consistency"). I heated the cereal mash to 160F, held it for 5 minutes, then proceeded to boil it for 30 minutes. The main mash continues at 150F.

When the cereal mash is done, transfer it into the main mash and hold it at 150F for another 45 minutes.

Sparge as normal, add the LME and brew as normal.

The initial yeast activity was crazy, I had to put the fermenter in an ice bath to bring the temperature back to the desired 70F.

-------
Let the beer cold condition in the fridge for a few days..., at 40F?

Notes: I had this sitting in my keg for 15 days just to meld the flavors together, I also used gelatin right when I kegged it and now after 15 days the beer is very good, you can defiantly taste the wheat flavor and the over all body is perfect with a citrus finish, the final gravity is low but the carapils makes the beer a little thicker and just the right texture, I can defiantly say this is a winner

Notes: Add 2 tsp of Gypsum to water, based off starting with DC water.

The recipe released from the White House has an error, they mention 1.5 oz of Fuggle in the list of ingredients, but then only 0.5 oz in the instructions. I went with 1.5 oz here.

The instructions are also a little weird in terms of the boil times. They say 'add the honey and boil for 5 more minutes'. So, actually it is a 50 minute boil, not a 45 minute boil.

Other than that, it is a straight forward extract batch.

To get it to qualify as an Amber Ale, had to set the IBU equation to Rager, and the SRM equation to Daniels. I'm open to suggestions on the style (haven't tasted it).

Notes: Prior to pitching- wort was sweet (duh!), and the mouthfeel suitable. The smell was very tropical due to the low bittering hop schedule; Azaaca and Pekko hops reminded me of everything from mango, cucumber and mint. Used a 1 liter starter w/o stir plate (2 days prior to pitching). extremely bright yellow color, reminiscent of a banana peel. OG= 1.050. Fermentation is occurring at ambient room temperature, which during this time of year is between 74-76. A little on the high side for this yeast, but we'll see what happens.

Day 3 - high-krausen has subsided, but the yeast has produced enough CO2 that the sample I pulled was slightly carbonated. Gravity reading = 1.012 (4.99% ABV). At this point, I believe primary fermentation is suitably completed. Tasting notes- excellent mouthfeel; mild, creamy body. Taste like a tropical hefeweizen- subdue notes of banana and clove, but the taste from the boil addition of orange peel and grapefruit peel are present on the back end. I am resisting the temptation of pulling the beer out of primary and putting into secondary. I will leave the beer on the wort until day 7. Will pull a new gravity reading at day 5. Deciding on whether or not to use fining agents to make the beer clearer, like a kristalweizen, or to keep the traditional wheat haze present. Very pleased with the choice of yeast.

Day 5 - gravity has fallen to 1.006 (5.78% ABV). Evidently, I was clearly wrong about fermentation being done on day 3. Will monitor for atleast another 2 days to see if the gravity stabilizes. If it is stable on day 7, I will make to secondary on day 10 or 11. I don't want to rush this beer, but I am eager to pour a glass of it. The honey addition at flameout is now present. Still has the notes of orange peel and grapefruit peel, put I have to pull deep to tate any of the banana or clove characteristic. It is a bit sweeter on the pallet than I am used to tasting, but I have never brewed a beer with such a low IBU. The mouthfeel is still creamy and pleasant.

Notes: This beer is designed to have a lot of dark fruit flavors like plum, fig, and raisin. Brown paper bags sometimes remind me of plums since we used to ripen plums in brown paper bags.

This was part of a group brew at Rob's house, this was my contribution. Came out a little stronger than anticipated, not sure how that happened. I made a 1.5 quart starter because trappistale yeast usually needs a little boost. I actually tasted the starter and it tasted pretty good itself. I should probably make a belgian pale ale with the same yeast at a future date.

Water adjustments: 1/16 tsp sodium bicarbonate to adjust the mash pH

Notes: add 2 oz bourbon soaked oak chips after primary fermentation let age until bourbon flavor is desired..add more if needed

then add tart cherries...age until desired flavor is reached.

I primed with brown sugar for bottling

3rd time filed in a freshly dumped Bourbon Barrel from Dark Horse. Sat in barrel for 3 months light pellicle formed. Funky and boozy. Transfer to a bucket with 2lbs of Tart Cherry puree for a week then kegged.
