Notes: Changed from pilsner malt to 2 row. Hit 153 with the strike (172/173) to I had to temp adjust with a quart of cold water and then a quart of hot water. I got to 150. I conditioned the malt this time and put the rollers at the default setting. I conditioned with 1.5% of the weight and it seemed to turn out really well. Looked very pretty so we will see how the sparge and efficiency goes. I hit 5.17 pH taking a reading from the spout at about 10min. Maybe I don't need the acidulated malt? Predicted pH was 5.4. Sparge only slowed down a little bit but I also had rice hulls so that might have helped vs conditioning the malt. HBC342 was about 9 months old so I decided to DH with 2 öz of Citra

Notes: Brewed 7/20/14. Strike water was 174F and it was about 152F. Recirculated about a gallon and a half down to 150F. I added 1lb rice hulls because when recirculating it got a bit stuck. I adjusted my mill gap recently so that might be a factor. Ph reading was 5.2 which was what was supposed to be predicted. Mash was very thick and could have maybe used more water. Vorlaugh was a bit slow maybe due to a lot of grains. Sparge was under by about a half gallon so I heated a half gallon more and sparged with that. Boil OG was 1.068 which puts the kettle efficiency at 73% which is a bit low. I believe I actually had about 8.75 or 9 gal pre-boil which probably wasn't that good. Efficiency was way down again. I didn't boil off enough so maybe that is why. Had about a half gallon extra in the boil. The huge drop in efficiency might be because of that. Pitch was about 72F and I cooled it to drop it a bit more. Ended up being about 64F and fermentation. 7/21 morning, fermentation has started and is sitting at about 65F. By evening it had drifted up to 69F so I cooled it back to 66F. I also added 6oz of turbinado to kick the OG and alcohol up a bit more. 7/22 the brew heated up to about 70F by morning so I cooled it down to about 66F. Might have cooled down lower than 66F, but by night time it was at 67F. 7/23 morning the brew had heated up to 70F cooled it to 68F. Was still sitting at 68F by evening. 7/24 out of swamp today, temp about 71F. It finished fermenting at about 75F as it has been quite hot. Took a gravity reading on 8/20/14. Fermented a bit more than expected but it tastes awesome. FG is a bit lower than I wanted but we shall see how the body holds up with a bit of age and carbonation. Prolly from the extra sugar. Kegged 8/22/14. Force carbed it and bottled all of it on 2/3/15, bottle code RS3. Beer had a very nice coffee and dark chocolate notes. Very smooth and balanced with a nice body despite it fermenting down more than desired.

Notes: Similar notes to chocolate orange candy, but much more subtle. Desired outcome is a Dry Stout with smoothness and improved mouthfeel from oats matched by chocolate flavors, then impart a floral, bitter aftertaste followed by lingering sweet orange citrus flavor and aroma.

Notes: My favorite hefeweizen recipe. Basically a slightly hopped up Hacker Schorr. See description in my blog at link below

1.4 gal (5.6qts) absorbed for 10 lbs grain. --> 6 gal boil (24 qts) = 24+5.6 = 29.6 - 15 (mash, 1.5 qts/lb) = 14.6 qts (3.6 gal sparge)

15 qts infusion mash at 163 = 152 mash temp.
