Notes: Local recipe from LHBS. This recipe uses less common Australian variety of hops with primarily US grain.
Aroma: Mild, fruity/grape-like hop aroma
Flavor: Moderately bitter and hoppy. All Southern Hemisphere hops give a unique character based around fruit and the grape-and-grapevine signature Nelson Sauvin flavor. The C-10 adds a slight sweetness.
Mouth-feel: Medium-light body with mooderate Co2 Levels.5
5/9/2013. Fully carbonated in keg. First taste. Ibu higher than target for sure. Color is dead on. Left dry hop in extra 4 days -oops- that explains bitterness. Fell short on final volume by about 2-3 gallons. Must have converted sparge wrong when i adjusted up batch size. Not a bad problem. Stronger malt flavor, like a baby imperial. Ha!
Also failed to take fg. Will estimate using the field sobriety method. Enjoy!

Notes: 10g of S04 yeast.
Lower than expected OG of 1.050. Same amount of yeast, so possible over-attenuation issue. Also, added sugar to to boil which may account for efficiency problem i.e off target OG.

Second brew:
New equipment and much bigger volume. Pre-boil gravity 1.047, very near target. OG at 61c (adjusted for temp) was 1.053, so a few points off. Not sure why though... Will test again prior to pitching when temp comes down. Trialling no-chill in the primary fermenter.

Chilled in the kettle outside to 68c then transferred to fermenters and left outside. Brought in overnight and by morning down to 18c! Yeast pitched. It is Autumn now, so that is why the overnight temps are cool enough.

Very vigorous fermentation with little headspace in the fermentor led to stout all over the place and replaced the sanitiser solution in the airlock. Successful test run for my fermentation chamber.

Gravity at 10 days 1.014. I think it is done, but will leave for another three days and test again. Gravity at 12 days 1.013. Cacao nibs and drops of Orange essence into the primary of one fermenter. The other will be left as a staright Oatmeal stout with a big chunk of chocolate malt.

This is a very decent stout. It's now been bottle conditioning for a couple of months. Will brew this again. Possibly cocoa powder into the boil next time for chocolate punch. Orange also barely noticeable, will need a much bigger dose next time.

Notes: Day 1:
1) Heat up ~5 gallons of hot water.
1a) Do the Melanoid Malt / Oats / Pale 2-row as a side batch at its own temperature in a bag. Aim for ~155-160 degrees for an hour.
2) Add extracts and bring to boil. (add Melanoid Mix malt here) -- No need to boil for long, just enough to get the malt sterilized.
3) Cool to ~90 degrees and transfer gently to the fermenter (the less oxygen the better at this point).
4) Pitch the Lacto Plantarum Yeast starter.
5) Keep ~90 degrees for 48 hours to lower the ph. (Should drop ph to ~3.4-3.2.)

Day 3:
5) Drain portion of wort (~half) into kettle.
6) Add hops. Boil for 30 minutes.
7) 10mins: Add coriander.
8) 10mins: Add salt.
9) 10mins: Add Irish Moss.
10) 10mins: Add yeast nutrient.
11) Chill to ~80 degrees.
12) Mix back into the fermenter (vigorously, to oxygenate the wort and encourage yeast).
13) Pitch yeast & bacteria culture.*
14) Cool to ~70 and start primary fermentation. Ferment for 6-7 days.

[Day 3 Check-in: Hit the original gravity spot on at 1.056. Taste is slightly sour -- just a bit of mouth puckering happening. But also terribly sweet, so hard to say. The hint of salt seems about right and the overall flavor is about what I was aiming for. Basic fairly malty beer, but with some savory complexity from the coriander and salt. Drying this up will help a lot.]

Day 10:
15) Rack into 2ndary. Leave for ~2-4 weeks, letting the Pedio and Brett get working. If fermentation is still going, let age even longer.
16) optional -- third rack onto some oak chips. Then, age for for a month.

[Day 15 check-in: Racked beer into 2ndary. Let it sit in primary a bit longer than planned, but was fermenting really slowly, so I think that's fine. The gravity is down to 1.020, so coming along nicely, but not done fermenting yet. Goal is 1.011. The taste is much better than previously. Dryer, but with a nice amount of sourness. Maybe not as much as I had hoped for, but it still might sour a tad more as it ages. The flavor is good, much like the Destihl "Here Gose Nothing" that I'm shooting for, just a little less puckeringly sour -- but still really impressive for doing it myself. Good malty flavor, and seems almost dry enough to go but still just a tad sweet. So far, a good clean taste with no off flavors. Saltiness comes through in the mouthfeel, too. Overall, really happy with where it's going. Plan for bottling: Leave to age for 2-3 weeks, then bottle ~4 gallons of it, and rack 1 gallon onto some oak chips and maybe a bit more sugar to revive and age it for longer.]

Day 24-31:
17) Bottle and condition. Age for at least two weeks.

*Yeast Culture: Needs: Lacto, Pedio, Brett, and Sach. The addition of hops will slow down the Lacto, so no need to kill all of it... Prep this a day ahead of time by mixing a sour blend of yeast with DME extract. Get it frothing a bit and going healthy.

Tasted great, adjusted for 65% efficiency. Added some cacl and b soda, no ph adjustment.. 4 months aged in bottle-Won FCC Gold for Porter!!

Ver.2 Planned: added 8g more to ko hop addition (to make it 28g).

Drafted Who’s House - Dan's

BREWING DAY-TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
DRINKABILITY: Sampled on a few hours of carbonation and it taste fantastic!! Can really taste the freshness.

SESSION NOTES:
Changed from 15 pds of German Pilsner to 12 pds.
Accidentally tossed SAAZ & Hallertau at boil.
Tossed correct SAAZ & Hallertau at end of boil.
Too much water loss due to boil.
Should have had boiling water end of session to top off fermenator to 5.25 gallons.

STANDARD BREWING NOTES:
Create 8 gallons sparge water. Bring to 154° strike temperature
Prime pump. Push water through hose.
Add grain – Sparge at 152° for 90 minutes (Minimum 60)
(One gallon loss during sparge process)
Water burn rate: 1 gallon per hour.
Drain GRAIN from kettle. Adjust water height of ___ (7 gallons)
Boil clean water for end of boil session adjustment
Mash Option dark beers – Add x tablespoon Calcium Carbonate
60 minutes – Add tablespoon 5.2 pH balancer
60 minutes – Add 2 drops Fermcap
60 minutes – Add 5 tablespoon Gypsum for IPA (Optional)
15 minutes – Add immersion chiller
15 minutes - Add Whirlfloc
10 minutes – Add 1 teaspoon Yeast Nutrient last 10 minutes
♦Check to see if 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

Procedure:
I would use a large grain bag (24"x24") as there is a lot of grain to mash.
Mash normally for 60 minutes then sparge normally. Collect 6 gallons to 6.25 Gallons of wort for boil. Boil for 90 minutes total. Bittering hops for 60 min., flavor and aroma hops separately during the last minute of the boil. Chill to 65ish F. Take OG. Crudely filter (whirlpool) from your boil into your primary after pitching your 2 packs of 1007 (Hops in the primary is good for this beer). Ferment for 2 weeks@ 65ish F. Take FG. Calculate dextrose amount based on yield in gallons, I used 3.5 oz. Filter beer through fine strainer or pantyhose (or both) from your primary into your bottling vessel. Bottle. Leave for another 2 weeks with minimum aggravation (you want the yeast to settle and become dense). Chill 24hrs prior to drinking. Pour into glass avoiding the yeast. Enjoy and share.

RECIPE:
Smithwick's Ale clone
Author: BYO Staff Issue: April 2001
When my wife and I visited Ireland, we really enjoyed our share of Smithwick’s Ale. Smithwick’s is a light-bodied, copper-colored Irish Red ale with a pleasant hint of roastiness and a dry finish. Here’s a successful homebrew version of Smithwick’s.
Randy & Amy Germann
San Antonio, Texas
Smithwick’s Ale Clone
5 gallons, all-grain; OG = 1.050 FG = 1.010 ; IBUs = 22

Ingredients
• 6.5 lbs. pale malt
• 5.75 oz. roasted barley (300° Lovibond)
• 7.25 oz. flaked barley
• 1 lbs. Karo light corn syrup
• 4 AAU East Kent Goldings (0.66 oz. of 5.9% alpha acid)
• 5 AAU Fuggles hops (1 oz. of 5% alpha acid)
• 1 tsp. Irish moss
• Irish Ale Yeast (Wyeast 1084)
• 3/4 cup priming sugar
Step by Step
Add grains to 2 gal. water and hold temperature at 152° F until conversion is complete (30 to 60 min.). Sparge with 4 gal. of 162° F water. Add corn syrup and 3/4 gal. of water to the brew pot. Total boil is 60 min. At the boil, add 0.22 oz. of EKG. Boil 40 min. and add 0.22 oz. of EKG. Boil 5 min. more and add Irish moss. With two min. left, add 0.22 oz. of EKG and 1 oz. of Fuggles. Chill wort to 60° to 80° F and pitch the yeast. After a week, transfer to secondary and hold for one more week. Bottle and condition for at least two weeks.
