Notes: Mead Making Overview (with Curt Stock)
http://brewingtv.com/episodes/2010/10/8/brewing-tv-episode-21-making-mead-with-curt-stock.html

Pitching Rate ~ 230B cells (make a 1L, 1.036 starter with honey and nutrients, decant as much as possible).

Aerate with one good Purge & Shake.

Make 3 gallons of mead, then add cherries (in a bag).

http://www.homebrewersassociation.org/pages/community/blog/show?title=recipe-of-the-week-cherry-mead

Use an SNA (stir/whip after each addition)
(Mix the nutrient blend into ½ cup of must and add it back to the fermenter to avoid an explosive release of CO2.)

Add ¾ tsp after pitching yeast.
Add ¾ tsp 24 hours after ferm begins.
Add ¾ tsp 48 hours after ferm begins.
Add ¾ tsp after 30% of the sugar has been depleted.

Ferment at or below 70F.

Punch down the cap 3 times every day during active fermentation.

Notes: This is an easy recipe to make a solid wort for a Gueuze/Lambic wort. The fun is to brew this every year. The Belgian sour mix from White Labs will do a good job getting the flavors For the style picked. Each home brewers home will create its own "house character". Once you add this to your brewing schedule you will look forward to brewing this beer every year.
A fifteenth minute boil is all you need to sanitize the wort and get some IBU's into the wort. It is the aging the beer that will challenge you!
Maltodextrin will be food for the bugs after the fermentable sugars are gone.

OG 1038 | FG 1009 | c.3.8% ABV | 30–32 IBU | 27 EBC

Pale malt 89%
Enzymic (acid?) malt 1%
Crystal malt (variable, for colour) 4.5%
Malt extract (in mash) 3%
Invert 3 (sugar, in boil) 2.5%

Hops – Fuggles (70%) Goldings (30%) to achieve 30–32 IBU. (Manual prescribes a blend of different growths to help maintain a consistent palate across batches.)

Water (all water used in the process) – 40 grains per gallon sulphates; 35 grains per gallon chlorides.

MASH at 158F (70c) for 1.5hrs; 1st sparge 175F (79.5c); 2nd sparge 160F (71c).
BOIL for 1h45m, with Invert 3 sugar, Irish Moss (1lb per 100 barrels – so, a teaspoon…) and Fuggles at 1h45m; Goldings at 15m.
Pitch yeast at 60F (15.5c) – Mortlake 114, or a blend of 114 and 118, in case you happen to have any handy; alternatively, a fairly neutral English ale yeast is probably best.
During fermentation, keep temperature below 69F (20.5c).
Warm condition for 8–12 days with dry hops (Goldings) at rate of 1oz per barrel (0.8g per gallon, we think); or use hop extract to achieve the equivalent. Add caramel at this stage if colour is off.
Prime with ‘liquid candy’ (sugar syrup?) to achieve 1.45 vols CO2 in final container.

Notes: Note to all - this is an attempt at a CASKED type ale. It might work as bottled beer, it might not. It is EXPERIMENTAL.

This is an English Strong Bitter (old style cask ale taste profile) a Golden Strong Bitter with a Cask Malt flavor. Originally made by Sam Smith Brewery, one of my favorite UK Breweries.

Mash in with all grains at 140 initially, raising the temperature while stirring to 151 to hold for 90 minutes. Batch sparge with an additional 12 quarts of water to collect 6 gallons of sweet wort.

Bring the wort to a boil and add the hops. (Yes, this is in the recipe, but I initially tried the calculator at 30 minutes and I had a more sedate 43 IBUs. Thought about splitting it at 45 minutes...but it does have raw brown sugar introduced 7 days before bottling or kegging - this should provide a kind of "casked" taste as the yeast should re-ferment. Yeah - this can be a disaster...wondering if I might make a tiny little batch and see what happens if I secondary it in a minikeg - no gas, pinch of yeast - like you would for a REAL cask. I think I would need a spunding valve to offgas the excess CO2.)

The recipe calls to add the molasses and sugar, dissolved in a little wort, added "during the boil". I wouldn't add it until 15 minutes prior to the end, so it has less of a chance to scorch and burn. At the same time, add the whirlfloc tablet and yeast nutrient.

The modifications so far.
Recipe was for 20 quarts - I needed 5.5 in the fermentor so I can guarantee 5 gallons in the keg. So I raised the fermentables to:

7 lbs of 2 row from 5 lbs
12 ozs of Torrified Barley from 8 oz
10 ozs of light crystal from 6 oz

Used Windsor instead of "Brewer's Yeast" - suited the final gravity

Messed around with the hop schedule - if you put them all in for 90 minutes, you get 60+ IBUs which is way out of character for a strong bitter - 50 IBUs is about tops. So I changed the Fuggles to 2 oz from 2.5 after I made the fuggles go in at 60 minutes and the Goldings at 30. That gets you to 48 IBUs.
