| Notes: Turned out great. Mango is visible mostly in the smell (which is amazing, you can smell mango and all the citrusy hops). When it comes to taste, it's more subtle, but it counters the bitterness nicely. I'm really happy with it. |

Notes: Going to no chill in kettle overnight but I'm also going to transfer into keg 19lt to save for another fermentation.
Will transfer off wort into no chill keg before adding sugar addition to kettle.
Will add half flame out Sazz hops to keg before racking over 30g.
Will do this at 10 to go. |

Notes: God damn messy brew day, need to sort the bloody set up for next time!
Completed water calculations then didn't trust them and underfilled initial mash and had to top up. Overcompensated with splarge and probably made 32+ litres in the end and got a boil over as a lesson for my mistake.
Prrboil was a little under expected at 1.045 post boil made this up at 1.07.
In the fermenter now and awaiting dry hop additions and fruit juices soon.
Dry hopped with just 2 hop varieties on day 4 with Rubicon brand fruit juices - 1L each (passion fruit and lychee cartons). Smells great!
Reading up on NEIPA has got me paranoid re:oxidation. Decided to bottle after only a week (doubt there is a great deal left to go anyway).
Final reading 1.02 - ABV at least 6.5% (likely more due to late juice additions).
This is definitely not an NEIPA - stuff is clearing already in my sample has.
Obvious errors I have made -
1. too full for boil meant I lost some protein in the book over.
2. Need neater set-up for whirlpool at the end
3. Ditch the bazooka screen - I have a false bottom and a BIAB bag so no need and constantly restricts flow on the damned pump.
4. Do NOT secondary - had so much trub from the above I moved to secondary but now understand this is a killer for an NEIPA
5. Not sure if new formula Rubicon juices now suitable for fermentation - they say "30% LESS SUGAR" but clearly sweet so may have other crap in it (and perhaps preservatives) that probably don't help the style. I'll ditch this next time and go all beer.
I bottled into squeezed pet bottles (no air space at all) and purges mini-kegs (full purge using water) to minimise air exposure.
Fermented Wort tastes great so at least it's not a complete failure! fingers crossed goos after carbing and I avoid dreaded oxidation.
Actually despite the various cock ups, this beer tastes great! Reckon it could be better without the various errors made in the brew process and I think I'd skip the fruit juice additions next time. |

| Notes: After boiling the DME and honey in roughly 1 gallon water, cooled to about 100 F, added a whole cup of light greek yogurt (with strawberries). Put into warmed oven. Left it there for 2 days. The pH dropped from 4 to 3. Boiled wort with hops for ten minutes. Cooled wort and poured onto red wine yeast cake. |

Catharina Guajava
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.047 FG = 1.008
IBU = 9 SRM = 3 ABV = 5.2%
Ingredients
6 lbs. (2.7 kg) Pilsner malt
3 lbs. 8 oz. (1.6 kg) wheat malt
3 AAU Magnum hops (30 min.) (0.25 oz./7 g at 12% alpha acids)
5.5 lbs. (2.5 kg) fresh guava, peeled, frozen, then thawed
(3) 80 g bottles “Yakult 40” brand probiotic drink (Lactobacillus casei Shirota)
SafAle US-05 or other clean, highly attenuative ale yeast
78 cup corn sugar (if priming)
Step by Step
Adjust brewing water with lactic acid, calcium sulfate, and calcium chloride to achieve a mash pH of 5.3 with 70ppm of calcium and a sulfate:chloride ratio of 1:1. I would use reverse osmosis (RO) water and adjust all brewing water to a pH of 5.5, then add ½ tsp of calcium sulfate and calcium chloride to the mash.
This recipe uses a step mash with rests at 122 °F (50 °C) for 5 minutes, 153 °F (67 °C) for 70 minutes, and 169 °F (76 °C) for 10 minutes. Sparge and collect 6.5 gallons (24.5 L) of wort.
Boil the wort for 10 minutes to sanitize without hops, then chill to 113 °F (45 °C). Acidify with lactic acid to a pH of 4.5. Pitch the Lactobacillus (probiotic drinks) directly into the boil kettle. Seal the boil kettle using plastic wrap. Purge with CO2 periodically. Keep the temperature at 113 °F (45 °C) using an electric heater or other method for 36 hours or until the pH reaches 3.5. Perform a second boil for 70 minutes, adding the hops with 30 minutes remaining. Chill the wort to 64 °F (18 °C), pitch the yeast, and ferment until SG 1.014. Add the guava and allow fermentation to finish.
Clarify if necessary. Rack the beer, prime and bottle condition, or keg and force carbonate. |
