Notes: Tasting notes: minimal bubblegum/banana esters compared to v1, probably because fermentation temps were actually in line with recommended instead of running above 80degF. Next time should build a starter and pitch at 80degF to try to get more of those esters/phenols. Could also try a warming blanket or turn up one of the new baseboard heaters to replicate. Is a bit bitter/astringent on the aftertaste, should tone it down on the hops next time, either stick with the 1oz each of simcoe/sultana or perhaps use a more traditional noble hop for comparison.
Initial mash pH was 5.7 at 147deg F. At 25 mins into mash, begin raising temp to 162deg F for second rest. Next time might need a few ounces of acid malt in addition to the brewing salts to get the pH lower on this smaller version.
Need to use at least 6 gallons of water if not 6.5 for the mash, the rice hulls soak up a lot of water. Use less water on the sparge--came out with 8 gallons of water pre boil which necessitated a longer boil time (which is probably for the better, unless you're impatient).
From "Weihenstphan-Style Hefeweissbier" CB&B:
Mill the grains and mash in at 113°F (45°C), then follow the steps below for this double-decoction mash:
Pull about one-third of the mash and heat it to 162°F (72°C), rest 20 minutes. Then heat it to 203°F (95°C), rest another 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the rest of the mash to 131°F (55°C) and hold until first decoction is complete.
Reunite the mash to bring it to about 149°F (65°C). Rest 40 minutes.
For the second decoction, pull about one-third of the mash and heat it to 162°F (72°C), rest 20 minutes. Then heat it to 203°F (95°) and rest 15 minutes.
Reunite the mash to bring it to about 162°F (72°C).
Heat the mash to 172°F (78°C) and mash out.
Lauter and sparge to get about 6.6 gallons (25 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil 70 minutes, following the hops schedule. After the boil, chill to 66°F (19°C), aerate the wort, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at 68°F (20°C) for 4 days. Optionally, if possible, add 1–2 quarts (946 ml–1.9 l) of fresh, unfermented wort (known as speise). Then ferment another 4 days at 68–72°F (20–22°C) before cooling to 41°F (5°C) for 2 weeks. Package and carbonate to about 3.5 volumes.
Simcoe: Specific aroma descriptors include passion fruit, pine, berry and earth characteristic
Sultana (formerly-Denali/Nuggetzilla/EXP 06277): With pineapple, pine and bright citrus notes, Sultana is sure to make "one hell of an IPA!"
Try a Ferulic Acid Rest next time. See here for details: https://learn.beerandbrewing.com/courses/take/advanced-all-grain-methods/texts/8160912-ferulic-acid-rest
Wheat needs to be milled separately from munich and 2row.
OG was 1.042 with 55% efficiency which is really not idea.
FG was 1.013 which is 71% attenuation for a ABV of 3.84%.
Goal ABV was between 5-5.5%, see notes above for ideas on increasing efficiency next time. |
