Notes: Ferment at 61F 4-5 days. Cool to 32 over 5 days. Lager at 32 for 21 days.
Took 3-4 weeks to fully carbonate at room temp.
Edited recipe on 7/19/12 to go to .5 lb Vienna malt from 1.25 lb.
9/11/2013: Last couple of batches came out very slightly high in OG (1.050-1.053). Changing recipe today to show expected efficiency of 80%, and lowered pils malt and wheat malt to 7.5lb and 0.75lb respectively.
Also, consider using different hops - German noble hops as stated in BJCP 6C.
4/30: Used 8# Pils, 1# Wheat Malt, .5# Vienna. Got 5.5g @ 1.052.
7/16/2016: Got very high efficiency, so I scaled the hops up in recipe to get 6.25 gal to fermenter. Note that my earlier IBU target had been 26. This batch will be 29. After brewing, efficiency was not so high, but still 80%. IBU will be 32. Back off on hps next time.
1/21/2017: Modified recipe to target 24.6 IBU.

Notes: Another rebrew of my award-winning porter recipe, inspired by Fuller's London Porter. Beer brewed to this recipe scored 1st in I MKPD in Krakow in 2011. Competition brew had lower OG (to keep within style guidelines), rebrewed versions have higher OG to match Fuller's.

Notes: From "American Cookery" in 1796, by Amelia Simmons (an American orphan).

Please note: This is an adaptation of the Spruce Beer recipe from American Cookery. This recipe was written mentioning "molasses," however this is what we would call light molasses/golden syrup today...not dark molasses or blackstrap molasses. Dark or blackstrap molasses darkens the color of the brew and changes the flavor characteristics (the 1oz addition of molasses is in fact dark/blackstrap molasses - for color mostly). Ensure that you use golden syrup (like Lyle's) or corn syrup, NOT dark or blackstrap molasses for the 1lb addition.

-------------------------------------------
Directions:

Start with 1.25 gallon of water. When boiling, add molasses (not corn syrup/golden syrup), spruce tips, and hops according to schedule, and boil for 30 minutes total.

Strain hops and spruce tips out of mixture into another pot, remove from heat.

Add 1lb golden syrup or corn syrup. One bottle of Lyle's Golden Syrup is about 1lb. If you don't have fresh spruce tips, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of spruce essence. Stir until dissolved.

Cool to approximately 70-80 degrees, transfer to a 1 gallon jug, and pitch 1/2 packet of Gluten Free yeast like a Danstar variety (Nottingham preferred). Ferment about 2 weeks, then bottle.

Use 1oz of dextrose or 0.9oz table sugar at bottling for carbonation.

-------------------------------------------

"American Cookery" was the first American-written cookbook published in America. Previous efforts were adapted from English cookbooks, written by men. This cookbook focuses on new world ingredients and was written by a woman, Amelia Simmons - who is mentioned to be an American orphan on the original edition of this book. Not much is known about Amelia, but this is her recipe for spruce beer. The cookbook is actually a very interesting read about a multitude of cooking subjects from a colonial American's perspective.

The full, free and free to distribute ebook version of this cookbook can be found here:
http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/12815

This "spruce beer" recipe can be found towards the end of the book.

At around 4.5 - 5% ABV, this is a small beer. These were common in colonial America as the alcohol and boiling helped make the water safer to drink.

Interesting to note that there is no grain in this recipe, so technically it is probably not really a "beer." It only contains hops, molasses, water, and spruce essence. Using Danstar yeast (all Danstar yeasts are gluten free) and thoroughly cleaned/sterilized utensils will make this a gluten free beer.

I add spruce tips when they're in season and fresh. These are the bright green bushy new growth that pop out of spruce trees in the spring.

With a nice balance of hops to spruce (and perhaps fresh spruce tips instead of the essence), one might also consider this to be a "faux pale ale."

The key to this brew is finding the amount of spruce essence that is not overpowering for you, and marries well with the hops. Adjust the spruce essence, spruce tips, and hops variety as you see fit. Go very light until you reach the ratio that you enjoy.

*Original recipe (about 19 gallons) follows:

Take four ounces of hops, let them boil half an hour in one gallon of water, strain the hop water then add sixteen gallons of warm water, two gallons of molasses, eight ounces of essence of spruce, dissolved in one quart of water, put it in a clean cask, then shake it well together, add half a pint of emptins (see below), then let it stand and work one week, if very warm weather less time will do, when it is drawn off to bottle, add one spoonful of molasses to every bottle.

"Emptins" are a yeast starter. Here is the recipe for that, which immediately follows the Spruce Beer recipe:

Take a handful of hops and about three quarts of water, let it boil about fifteen minutes, then make a thickening as you do for starch, strain the liquor, when cold put a little emptins to work them, they will keep well cork'd in a bottle five or six weeks.

Notes: Mengden meske- og skyllevann du bør bruke kommer an på utstyret og metoden du brygger med. Som et anslag kan vi si at du kan bruke 20 l meskevann og 14 l skyllevann til dette ølet. Noen bryggemaskiner (f.eks. Speidel Braumeister) kan kreve større mengder meskevann. Sjekk alltid manualen på utstyret du bruker.

Mesking på 66 grader i 60 min. Utmesk på 77 grader i 5 min hvis du har mulighet til å øke temperatur i mesken.

Kjøl ned til 17 grader før pitching av gjær.

Gjæring på 18 grader til stormgjæring begynner å avta (typisk etter 3-5 dager). Øk deretter til 20 grader og hold resten av gjæringsperioden (totalt 14 dager). Tørrhumle etter 5 dager. Gjør gjerne en "coldcrash" (senke temperaturen i ølet så langt ned mot - men over 0 grader - som du klarer) etter 12 dager, et par dager før ølet tappes. Dette vil bidra til mer effektiv bunnfelling av tørrhumlen før tapping.

Gjæralternativer: WLP570, Safbrew T-58. WLP515 kan brukes for et mer nøytralt preg.
