Notes: Not a very close match. Next time I will try the following:

Add some Cara-pils dextrine.
Reduce the Munich a bit.
90 minute boil
First hop addition at 75
Summit/Amarillo @75
Crystal/Amarillo the rest of the way (45, 25, and 0)
No Cascade, and make sure to get Cyrstal.

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.

Notes: A rye amber ale for Steve at Barismo.

Several new techniques are being attempted with this one, even though it's not really for us. First off, we milled the rye separately and are allowing it to kind of "pre-convert" for 15 minutes, then adding the rest of the grain. and striking in as normal with a traditional protein rest schedule. The second thing we're trying is a whirlpool hop stage at flame-out.

3/1/15: Brewed this today. Went off pretty well, no real major hangups despite introducing a couple new techniques. No idea if either is going to have an appreciable influence on the finished beer, but we'll have to see. Hit our OG spot-on and it seems like it's going to ferment perfectly well. More updates soon.

3/8/15: Thiefed sample for gravity reading and tasting. Nailed the FG - 1.012, attenuation only 1pt better than anticipated. Final abv should be 4.99%. Pre-conditioning tasting notes:
Subtle, quaffable. Solid stylepiece highlighting balance almost to a flaw; mild malt breadiness, just enough hops, could use a bit more. I think our cascade being lower AA than anticipated cost us a few ibus. Drinks like a commercial amber without the nasty adjunct taste of stale corn. Would crush this on a summer's day. Going to carb heavy to add mouthfeel and hopefully make the beer more interesting.

3-22-15: Bottled into 12oz bottles. Added .75 cups corn sugar to prime. Pipetted 2mL of yeast into each bottle. Yielded exactly 48 bottles, and one bomber which will be ours.

Notes: Grain Bill oats- just use old fashioned Quaker oats

Mash Temp- Its better to mash on the higher side and try to get a "sweeter" or less ferment-able beer usually 154-158.
Mash pH of 5.0-5.4. Correct acidity with lactic acid 88%. Measure after mash in.

Water profile- Maintain a 1:1 chloride to sulfate ratio at a level of 150 ppm. These are the only two water variables that should be monitored.

Conical Fermentation, conditioning and packaging process
1. Ferment for 5-10 days before adding any dry hop. The first 24 hours of active fermentation are the most critical in terms of proper temperature control (66-68°F). Once fermentation starts to slow, let the fermenters free-rise to 70-72°F. This ensures fermentation fully completes and scrubs out any unwanted off-flavors.

2. At day 7-8 after yeast pitch, Soft crash fermenter down to 55-60°F to allow the yeast to settle into the cone of the conical. Using dump valve, slowly remove yeast over 2 day period.

3. Cap/seal fermenter at soft crash temp, add dry hop. Purge and pressurize to 7-10 PSI and let sit for 2-3 days.

4. Cold crash to 35°F, under pressure for 2 days. Remove dry hop from dump valve over 2 day period.

5. Packaging- Do not let beer interact with oxygen. This will result in oxidation and a ruined product. Perform a closed transfer to a keg that is scrubbed of oxygen/air. You can do this by filling a keg with starsan and push it out with CO2. This will leave you with a keg full of CO2.

Notes: Pre-boil gravity 10.25 brix.
Post boil gravity

Hot break at beginning of boil largely skimmed off.

Brew day Wednesday October 2. Target OG of 1.047, actual was 1.052 (68% vs 63% efficiency).

Pitch 1/2 packet Nottingham rehydrated for 20 minutes in 4 oz cooled boiled water (partial tap) on Wed. October 9. Fridge set at 60F, ferment at 67-68 according to Carboy strip. Raise by 2 degrees Friday October 11 2013.

Transfer from primary to keg with 1.25 oz. Corn sugar on Saturday October 19 2013.

This beer turned out very nice and I'm still enjoying in mid December. One to make again for sure, perhaps with the WLP007 Dry English Ale yeast to compare.

Notes: Sour cherries were frozen, then thawed and pitted, and then frozen and thawed again before adding to the secondary. Added 1/8 tsp liquid pectic enzyme (several years old, so maybe no good) at the time to help clear haze. Lots of secondary fermentation from the cherries and juice. Also added 1 tsp gelatin (softened in 1/4 c cold water) finings. Still some haze before bottling, so added 1/4 tsp powdered pectic enzyme. Bottled with 2.6 oz. corn sugar.

Final gravity 1.003! ABV 8.3%
