Notes: 2024-02-11 People still remember this beer a few years later. The boil down on the stove of a gallon of wort makes a huge difference. Gives it a huge amount of flavor, be careful not to burn it. (BrewDay Edit: boiled down in a large pan for about 40 minutes, got it to about 220ºF when it looked like a thick pancake syrup and had darkened considerably) Because it wasn't too far, it redissolved and didn't burn to the bottom of the kettle, lots of stirring.
I'm lazy this time and grabbed 3 packs of OYL-015 Scottish Ale instead of doing a starter with WLP-028. Going to triple the amount of yeast nutrients and oxygenate on setting 1 (Blichmann regulator) for a few minutes to get it good.
Also adding 5 g ascorbate to mash for oxidation protection (gosh this doesn't make sense with oxygenation, but it seems to work in NEIPA so why not everywhere too?)
Also, also, the original had a "light and malty" water profile so I switched it up to Edinburgh. Not paying attention to the carbonate, but needed slaked lime to get the calcium up, which means I need more acid to balance it. Aiming for a mash pH of ~5.4.

Created a 2 L 1.060 Pils DME starter (1L in each 1 gallon jugs) and applied the Shaken Not Stirred approach.
https://www.experimentalbrew.com/blogs/saccharomyces/shaken-not-stirred-stir-plate-myth-buster

Starter:
342 g Briess Pils DME
2L distilled water
one ball of CaCl2
pinch of Ca2SO4
pinch of NaCl (table)
pinch of yeast nutrient
1 Pack of WLP028
7 pellets of EKG
Boiled then cooled to 70ºF with ice water bath in sink
~18 hours @ room temp (~60-70ºF)

Post mash, pull 1 gallon of liquid and boil that down in a shallow frying pan while you boil the main pot. This will create massive MRPs and flavor.

Notes: ===================================
2/7/22
getting pretty real. worried about using 32% corn sugar so reducing that to 20%. prob will brew on old system but efficiency will prob be high with the sugar, adjusting up to 68. Might use lutra....

adjusting grain bill. prob dont want to use karo since it has vanilla. comes in 32floz jars which is about 2.75 lbs. there are some in amazon that dont have vanilla but like 10 bucks, we need something cheap for the philosophy of the brew, not shipped. or else might as well just use cane sugar.

consider using citra noble or some other lager hop you have on hand other than cluster.

should consider water profile...
===================================
4/5/21
getting realer. adjusting efficiency to 60s and adding a half pound base malt to get to 8%. could consider using cooked corn grits instead of corn syrup for more authenticity or even the real flaked corn. but. never brewed with corn syrup before so itd be nice to add to my resume.

im thinking we could package in 22oz bottles.
===================================
a lot simpler than the official recipe. not sure if all that corn syrup/sugar would fly but elsewhere they said use 1/3 corn. im just using syrup and sugar to try to ensure my final gravity will be low.

using cluster in the recipe but could/would probably substitute for something else that i already have on hand. maybe millenium

ideas for bottling :
* tecate 32oz bottles have pry off

Notes: Made some tweaks recently to my batch #1.

Compared to 2016 Heady Topper mine was coming out slightly too dark by 1 or 2 SRM and was also slightly too candy-ish, which I attribute to both the Caramalt and the Amarillo hops %s. I reduced both in this batch. Actually subbed Comet for Amarillo. I also swapped Turbinado (Sugar in the Raw) with plain old corn sugar (Dextrose) to eliminate even more darkness/residual sweetness. Finally I upped the Columbus and lowered the Simcoe.

For the Malt Bill use the following brands:
Thomas Fawcett Pearl Malt
Thomas Fawcett CaraMalt
Canada Malting White Wheat Malt

Primary fermentation target 68*ambient. Allow to rise to the low 70s as primary fermentation nears completion.

"Conan" yeast is essential for this recipe to turn out correctly. I use the Yeast Bay's "Vermont Ale." There are a few other brands that are based on the Conan strain. Harvesting Conan from cans of Heady Topper would be best. If you can't get Conan, you could try English strains Wyeast 1968, White Labs 007, or Safale US-04, but they may not attenuate low enough and could result in too much sweetness.

For the bittering hop addition use 10 ml of HopShot at 90 minutes (boil). This should add 117 IBUs.

Allow wort to cool to around 180 degrees and add whirlpool hop addition.

Split the Dry Hop into 2 additions over 8 days (4 days each.

Note: Shooting for 130 IBUs total, mostly from the hopshot. The very late additions should not have noticeable utilization (maybe 10%).

Notes:
HOPS:
Keep Pacific Jade in mind for Saison--blk pepper and floral/citrus descriptors.
Alt. NZ/Aus. hops for Saison and the APA: Calypso, Pacific Jade, Galaxy, Riwaka, Rakau, Citra.

YEAST:
APA - use Wyeast 1272, or Kolsch/Euro Ale yeast
SAISON - WLP566 Saison II; WLP 585 (Saison III, seasonal)
**3711 worked excellently when fermented lower (keep low at early stages of primary, free rise); develops beautifully over time.

MASH NOTE:
Saison - Try a sacch. and dextrine rest (~144 and 154 resp.) next time, evidently will influence flavor, mouthfeel, and raise efficiency.

Try some rye in both grain bills?

Dry Hopped Jay's half with 2oz citra, 2oz mosaic.

Fermented at 65 ambient (Fruitiness from 05 was well received)

Jay's half won the Homebrew Club IPA II comp out of 15 (I think) IPA's.
