Notes: This is a clone of Sexual Chocolate by Foothills Brewing Co., as found on TastyBrew.com blog (http://www.tastybrew.com/forum/thread/154676); as the finalized with a few tweeks to the recipe.
1: The blog said to NOT add cocoa powder after trial due to graininess in the final beer and the need to chill and re-rack, but he used 6 oz at secondary, dry. I shall use 3 oz, mixed with 6 oz boiled water that will hopefully moisten the cocoa and reduce graininess in the final product and encourage settling during secondary.
2. I'm going to use homemade chocolate syrup in place of Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Syrup at kegging.
3. My Homebrew Supply Store did not sell Wyeast anymore; so while the original recipe uses Denny's Favorite 50, the closest strain by White Labs is California V. So, we'll see how this goes! |

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 Originally made by Sam Smith Brewery, one of my favorite UK Breweries.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. |

Notes: 1a) Get the sour mash pH down to 4.5, by adding phosphoric acid.
1b) Boil for 5 mins, chill to 100F, & add 11 capsules (20B cells each) of probiotics.
1c) Leave it aside for a day or so, till it reaches 3.1 pH.
2a) Boil for 25 mins.
2b) Pitch yeast & ferment as normal.
3a) Add the mango + pectinase, & secondary it for a few days, after fermentation is done.
3b) The mango should naturally carbonate the beer. If not, burst carb as usual.
4) Cold crash for a few days, before serving. |

♦ SESSION NOTES:
I screwed this one up. Had a strong diacidal
Had to take out the 1.8 pds of Flaked Rice and substituted 1 pd of Rice Syrup Solids which is used in many American Light Lagers.
Rice syrup solids are a granulated powder adjunct, similar to corn sugar or maltodextrin. Utilized to lighten beer color, add body, rice flavor and fermentable sugars, Rice solids are often employed in light adjunct lagers produced by breweries world wide, including Budweiser, Coors, and Miller.
Added to the kettle along with malt extract, Rice Syrup solids reproduce versions of Japanese and American style pilsners.
Application Tip:
Successfully used in extract, partial mash or all grain recipes, Brew and Grow recommends using 1 – 2 lbs. in the final 15 – 30 minutes of the boil for best results.
Added both WLP840 but had to added additional yeast because one White Labs bottle was out dated.
♦ STANDARD BREWING NOTES:
♫Create 8 gallons sparge water. Bring to 154° strike temperature. Prime pump. Pump water through hose. Add tablespoon 5.2 pH balancer
♫Add 2 drops Fermcap before adding grain.
♫Add grain – Sparge at 154° for 90 minutes (Minimum 60) (One gallon loss during sparge process) Water burn rate: 1-1/2 gallon per hour.
♫Boil clean water for end of boil session adjustment. Adjust to 5.5 water line.
•Dark beers – Add x tablespoon Calcium Carbonate
•IPA beers – Add 5 tablespoon Gypsum for IPA
WAKE UP!!!!!!
15 minutes – Add immersion chiller
15 minutes - Add Whirlfloc
10 minutes – Add 1 teaspoon Yeast Nutrient last
♦ Check to see if fermentation tank nozzle is pointed upwards
♦ KEGGING NOTES:
Purge oxygen with CO2
Chill keg 24 hours before force carbonation.
Force Carbonation Calculator: 20 psi 4 days
Volumes of CO2 2.5 at 36°F = 10.2 psi American Ales
