Notes: Forbidden Black Rice (Lotus Foods - Item #10270S) - Rice used unmilled. Clean with cool (room temp) water. Bring 36 gallons of water to boil and transfer to Mash Tun with Black Rice and let sit sealed for 60 mins. Begin adding remaining Strike water at appropriate temp to reduce mash temp to less than 149 degrees (Amylo 300 max active temp) and a pH range of 5.4 (min) to 5.6 (max). 145 - 147 degrees recommended. Begin incorporating remaining grain bill once strike temp is within range. (Added Amylo 300 for full 60 min Mash rest).
Note 1: Our Mash temp finished at 148.6 degrees and reduced to 146 degrees over the hour Mash sach rest. PH was tested and range was 5.46 pH.
Note 2: Strike water for rice infused water reduced to approx 188 degrees over 60 mins. Added 30 galls of 130 degree water and 30 gals of 150 degree water to reach 148 degree water for final mash temp.
Note 3: Amylo 300 added at 300 ml rate at start of Mash, and reached 10.4 degrees Plato (post boil test was 11 and Ferm check was 10.4). Unknown if higher Amylo 300 pitch rate would secure higher ABV, but dryness may be a factor (brut style beer?)
Note 4: Rice Conversion - 88 lbs of rice; manufacturer calls for 1.75 cups of water per 1 cup of rice or 23 gallons of water for (88 lbs) of rice. Allowing for additional apporox 27 gallons to lower viscosity and fill mash tun void (approx 10 gals in our brew vessel)

| Notes: Strike water was 172F and dropped it to 153F. After a few minutes recirculated a gallon and took a reading which put it at 151F. Took a pH and it's at 5.3. Got 77% kettle efficiency. Had a good boil going but didn't quite hit 5.75 gal in the fermenter. I topped off with a bit (maybe a pint) of pre-boiled water to get to a good water level. My efficiency was lower than I had expected. It might be because I used more grain that I usually do. 9/24 the fermentation has been between 66 and 70F so far. Today I also decided to add a half pound of corn sugar into the brew to kick up the abv a bit. 10/1 Dry hopped and took a reading which put it at about 1.016. Botteled on 10/10/2013. Got about 50 bottles from the corny keg which is about 4.75 gallons. Primed to 2 volumes C02. |

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. |
