Notes: 1600 ml. starter at 1.04
Ferment at 58 to 60 degrees with
Wyeast 2565,62 to 64 degrees with WLP 029
or 65 to 67 degrees with US-05
attenuation better than expected
finished at 1.011 about 5.3 ABV
carbonate 3 weeks at 68-70 degrees
cold condition 1 week in fridge
frothy head,nice lacing
tasty summer beer,easy drinking.
A great beer for the female in your life.
I`ve made this brew 7 times now,and it is a mainstay for my woman.I`ve used US-05
WLP 029 and WYEAST 2565 all with great
results.Used Williamette in place of
saaz and prefer it.Last batch came out
at 6.0 ABV with a modification to my fly sparge setup.Grain bill holds at 11 lbs.
Last batch was with WLP 029,I think Wyeast 2565 was the best of the 3 yeast types that I have used. (just me and swmbo`s thoughts).
Made batch #8 with US-05 on 4-19-13
used 4 Madagascar vanilla beans soaked
in vodka for a week and added to secondary
It added a bit more vanilla flavor.Nice addition for added flavor.Will make this
a regular step in future batches,recipe
has not changed but 2565 rules the brew.
I made batch #9 on 9-22-13.Used original recipe with wyeast 2565, by far the best.
Bottled on 11-1-2013.The only tweak was
adding 12 oz clover honey at flameout.The
Vanilla beans in secondary are the bomb.
Recipe will not change from here on out.
This batch started at 1.057 and finished at 1.01 - 5.51 ABV.It is exactly where I Want it. SWMBO and my friends love it.I like it alot too but I am more of a stout
porter guy.I hope you like it and have good luck with it if you try it. -enjoy-
12-8-2013 Vanilla flavor has mellowed
nicely,lacing last`s till the end of the glass.Very pleased with this batch.
Batch #10 1-23-2015 recipe has not changed
will be bottling in about a week or so.
This brew is our house brew all year,it`s
one for the ladies.Will be ready for St.
Paddy`s day.
batch #10 is long gone.Finally retired and will be moving to Florida in 2 weeks.I will update next batch when I brew in in the heat for the first time,Goodbye Chicago.I hope you enjoy the recipe.-Will be back to brewing soon.
-Cheers-

Notes: 5/1/23-Grain was smoked about a 1 1/2years prior, dried and refrigerated. Switching to Meridian hops. Using yeast cake from Red Rye IPA, so S-05, oak chips and hops in fermenter. Water Mods: 2g Gypsum, 1g Epsom, 1g CaCl, 10g Chalk, 2g Baking Soda, 1ml Acid Sparge. Forgot to stir minerals, so sledge left behind.
6/12/21-Bottling off keg. Next time, add 1 more oz. EKG at 15 and at WP, ~40-45 IBU.
5/22/21-Kegged.
5/15/21-Finally brewing this up according to the new recipe with the new equipment. Lost 1/2G to the boil, lost maybe another 1 1/2G to grain, drips, hose changes, pump, etc. Learned a lot. 6 hours including clean-up. Fermenting with a toasted oak stick. Kegged on 5/22/21, tasted on 6/8/21-lightly smoky, roasty, sweet smelling, but dry in the mouth. Excellent! Do this again, just like this!
1/1/21-Smoked the malt for the next porter. Aging in the fridge.
12/28/2020-1st time AG. I will smoke the dark malts and this time I get to grind them in a proper malt mill. I will check PH, but I might need to add some baking soda. I am hoping for a higher temp on the mash for more body. The smoke was off and on in the previous batch, but it was well-received.
**Wanted to recreate a traditional wood-fired malt kiln flavor. Smoked wort 1-2 weeks earlier than brew day over Irish whiskey soaked oak chips. Dried grain in low oven. But it didn’t dry as well as I wanted, so I kept the grain refrigerated until brew day. Crushed grain by food processor. Couldn't take wet grain back to the LHBS for grinding (yeah, I need a home grain crusher). Mashed at 145 +/- ( Strike Water 3Q./165F, I need a mash tun that will hold temp) for 1 hour. Batch Sparged with 1 1/4G 180F Water. Ok, so the 23 ounces of Dark LME is a lie. I transferred to secondary my Barley Wine (12-14%, IBU 70-100, SRM 40) after only 1 week of fermentation. Apparently, I had more than 5 gallons to transfer (Thank You, Trustworthy Brewing in Burbank, CA and the Long Beach Home Brew Club and Strand Brewers Club!) so I made a 2 gallon boil of this porter, with the expectation that I would add 1 gallon of spring water; AND...2/3-3/4 of that gallon is half-fermented Barley Wine. Bottled 12/8/18 (19 Pints): delicious toasty coffee flavor, the smoke did not come through, though it showed up at different points in the aging process. |

Notes: For Scary Clown Skate-aid 5. Double hopped IP suitable for vegans.
Almost all hops late addition as with all my more recent brewing. Just some in at the start to help stop foaming/boil over.
Oats in there to help with the mouthfeel as I'm mashing fairly low temp for a lower-body beer.
cold crash last 3 days to try and clear and drop fermentor dry hops. |
