Notes: Mill gap for barley = 0.035"
Mill gap for naked oats = 0.030"
Flaked oats were not milled.
Mash pH at 15 min (samples cooled with marbles/rocks from freezer):
Top: 5.34 @ 115 deg, 5.43 @ 99 deg, 5.51 at 89 deg
Bottom: 5.36 @ 115 deg, 5.43 @ 99 deg, 5.51 @ 89 deg
Gravities (from bottom):
Pre-sparge: 1.066, 9.6 gal
Post-sparge: 1.066, 11.2 gal
Post-boil: 9.7 gal, added 1 gal
Whirlpool: 1.063, 10.5 gal (1.047 from top)
1056 yeast
Fermenter 1 - 60 deg (D) - Fridge failing; temp running 10 deg high
Fermenter 2 - 63 deg (B) - 1.020 (day 9)
Fermenter 3 - 66 deg (A)
A26 yeast
Fermenter 4 - 65 deg (C)
Fermenter 5 - 69 deg (E) - 1.016 (day 9)
Fermenter 6 - 72 deg (F)
Lessons Learned:
1. Gravity varies wildly from top to bottom. Next time find a way to pull samples from middle.
2. pH meter temperature correction doesn't work well. Readings are lower at highter temps. Need to quickly cool samples to 80 deg. Small metal container in ice bath would be ideal.
3. Used 0.5 lb rice hulls but sparge was still slow. Next time use full pound for 10 gallon batch.
4. For 10 gallon batches, hang malt pipe from top of kettle to avoid spilling grain into kettle.
5. Plate chiller clogged while transferring to fermenters. Can try reversing flow through chiller to clear clog, this worked when rinsing equipment.
6. Always function test kettle prior to milling grain.
Tasting Notes
Batch C - Prominent pineapple aroma and flavor. Bitterness is not medicinal, but still detracts from perception and enjoyment of fruit flavors. Poor to fair head retention.
Batch A - Much more subdued aroma and flavor profile. No distinct fruit aromas or flavors, except perhaps slight stone fruit flavor. Bitterness lingers on the palate; overall bitterness actually balances well in this version. Poor head retention.
Batch E - Pleasant, sweet, fruity aroma. White wine flavor dominates, with guava, papaya, and piney/resiny flavors also present. Malt character is on the sweeter side. Poor head retention. Bitterness is not overpowering but could be reduced.
Batch F - Intense fruit flavor and aroma.
Batch B - Slight stone fruit aroma, slight orange peel flavor, otherwise unremarkable. One bottle possibly infected.
Batch D - Indistinguishable from batch A. Perhaps slight medicinal bitterness on the tail end. |

Notes: Mash at 149°F (65°C) for 60 minutes.
Add half of the water salt additions to the mash and the rest at sparge.
Add the FWH hops during runoff, immediately after vorlauf, and allow them to steep in the hot wort as the mash is sparged.
Boil for 60 minutes.
Whirlpool for 40 minutes (from start to rest) following the hops schedule.
Pitch the yeast and ferment at 67°F (19°C) for 2–3 days, then allow the temperature to rise slowly to 73°F (23°C) by the end of fermentation to ensure full attenuation.
YEAST: London Ale III (Wyeast 1318), Dry English Ale (White Labs WLP007), or Vermont/Conan
When fermentation reaches 1.5–2° Plato from terminal gravity (1.020–1.022), add the first dry-hop addition.
About 4 days later, add the second dry-hop addition for another 4 days. Package at 2.6 volumes of CO2 and consume fresh. |

Notes: Friday 22nd March 2019 - Brewday
Mashed in with 38L at 67C. Mashed temp set to 64C but was more like 65C throughout on the PID (even when setting the element to 1500W). Thermopen said 64C so a slight difference there
Mash pH = 5.3. Sparged with about 15L of 50C water. Took a long time to run off so transferred from the kettle to a bucket once the kettle was at a boil. Eventually got another 5L at 1.027 from the bucket. 3.5L of this went into the kettle and boiled for 15 minutes. The rest was decanted into PET bottles and frozen for starter wort. I made two vitality starters with some additional wort also. 1500 mL starter for WY1318 and 500 mL for S04 slurry
Boiled for one hour, added the bittering hops after 30 mins. It was difficult to get the right power level on the kettle. With the lid on it always seemed to boil over. Even at 1500W...
OG = 1.062. split between two fermentation kegs and pitched the vitality starters. 23L keg got WY1318. 19L keg got SO4
Sluggish start to fermentation in our cellar (16C). But steady once it started rocking after I had moved it to the pan room at 21-22C. Capped both kegs after about a week and released the pressure 2-3 times a day (broken spund valve). Both kegs did end up building 2.5 bar of head pressure at one point (I hope the yeast didnt autolyse)
Tuesday 2nd April - SO4 keg transferred into DH keg. 100 NS + 55 Mosaic + 31 Citra = approx 10 g/L DH. FG = 1.020. 5.6% ABV
Thursday 4th April - SO4 beer transferred to serving keg. DH keg cleaned, starsan purged and "reloaded" with the WY1318 beer. FG = 1.012. 6.6% ABV

Notes: grab some wheat from choppe: and find that yeast somewhere. Then good to go: fun ex-beeriment! consider splitting into two fermenters... 2 yeasts: one temp controlled, one not so much, or even both small totes with different temps...
If so, consider upping volume to get at least 12 L in each one (to make use of that precious carboy real estate).
Naw: just do this. Looks like this yeast is a winner for hoppy wild ipas.
So: need wheat and yeast. Call Choppe. |
