Notes: Inspired by Duvel's Single Fermentation
--
- sub German pils for Belgian if that's what you have
- sub table sugar for clear candi sugar (that's what I usually do)
- fuggles can be subbed for styrian goldings
- 1388 takes a long time to clear even with gelatin so treat this like a lager and plan to enjoy 2 months from brew day.

Notes: Batch #5 (Eff.: 68%, Att.: 82%, ABV: 7.5%) - 10/10/21
Pine-Lime Experimental Version, added lime juice to the first few and decided it didn't work! Lucky I tested before adding it, sticking with the pineapple version.
Mash vol.: 31L, Pre-boil vol.: 27 L, Batch vol.: 21 L
OG: 1068 (Refract.), 1062 (Tilt)
- Weyerman Carapils (0.4 kg) used this batch
- Swapped Riwaka for Motueka this brew for more lime flavour.
- First use of M66 Hop Head yeast
12/10/21 - SG:1017 - Very fast
19/10/21 - SG:1006, cold crashed to 10 C.
20/10/21 - Dry hopped and 432g Dole Pineapple Slices in juice added.
21/10/21 - Cold crashed to 1 C.
24/10/21 - Kegged and carbed.
29/10/21 - Tasting great, glad I didn't stick with the lime splice idea.

Batch #4 (Eff.: 58 %, Att.: 72 %, ABV: 5.5 %) - 27/09/20
- Mash vol.: 31L, Pre-boil vol.: 26 L, Batch vol.: 22.5 L
- OG: 1058 (Refract.), 1056 (Tilt)
- Cara Pils [0.4 kg](Carapils) (Best Malz) used this batch.
- Switched from US-05 to M44 West Coast yeast
- Citra and Mosaic swapped to CRYO versions, kept the same amount of grams.
30/9/20 - SG:1018
5/10/20 - SG:1016
7/10/20 - FG:1016, dry hopped, pineappled (432g Dole Pineapple Slices in juice) and cold crashed

Batch #3 (Eff.: 55%, Att.: 77%, ABV: 6.12%) - 8/12/19
- Pre-boil volume - 27 L (First use of mash paddle as a measuring stick for volume.
- Mash vol.:31 L, Pre-boil vol.: 27 L, Batch vol.: 23 L
- American Ale malt down to 5.9 kg from 6 kg to bring ABV down a little.
- Dry pitched x2 packs of US05 onto 22 C aerated wort.
20/12/19 - SG: 1017, Ferm temp upped by 0.5 C to 21 C, dry hopped.
22/12/19 - FG: 1013, added Dole Pineapple Slices in juice, 822 g can to fermenter and cold crashed.
25/12/19 - Kegged and carbed, 3 min at 30 psi.
28/12/19 - Tastes good, pineapple finish and aroma, people like it and the kegs draining quick, might switch pineapple (brand next time or try fresh).
17/01/20 - Left for 3 weeks while on holidays in the keg and it didn't hold up well, hop flavour really died back and left with a very mild pineapple finish, not great now.

Batch #2 (56% Eff: 56%, Att.: 77%, ABV: 6.3%) - 25/10/18
- Same grist, hop schedule and water profile as #1
- Mash time cut down to 45 min from 60.
- Boil time cut down to 45 min from 60.
4/11/18 - Transferred to a purged keg and dry hopped, kept at room temp to finish fermenting before adding pineapple and transferring to a new keg. Temp got up to 31 C outside.
8/11/18 - Transferred to a purged keg, on top of 440 g Golden Circle Pineapple Thins in juice and cold crashed. SG: 1014. Tasted fruity with a bitter lingering sweetness on the back.

Batch #1 (49% Eff.) - 8/7/18 - Pineapple pale ale - Grain milled coarse for Mark's grain father but done on my BIAB system, expected efficiency hit.
- Basing water profile (Cl- 200, SO4- 110) on Brulosophy suggestion.
- Pineapple (to taste) added at cold crash to avoid yeast eating the sugar from the juice and flavour dropping off or changing.
16/7/18 - SG: 1016, dry hopped (upped the amount to 20g each from 15g)
19/7/18 - SG: 1014, cold crashed.
22/7/18 - Added 1 can (432g) of Dole Pineapple Slices in juice.
23/7/18 - Mild pineapple aroma and a hint of flavour, tasting pretty good.
26/7/18 - Kegged and carbed (30psi for 2min 20sec)
29/7/18 - People really like the subtle pineapple sweetness and flavour, next time use a slightly bigger tin of pineapple.
5/8/18 - Tasted great, still had a bit of pineapple to it, great balance. Could maybe dry hop keg with a small tin of pineapple.

boil for 90 mins. (a tradition boil is 60 mins)
once boiling hop according to schedule.
Bittering hops first @ 90 or 60 mins
Flavoring hops Second Usually @ 45-30 mins
Aroma hops @ 20-15 mins
Irish moss @ 15 mins
Cool wort to 75-80 Degrees F.
re-hydrate yeast in 1/4 cup water @ 90 Degrees wait 20 mins then stir and wait 20 mins again or til foamy.
pitch yeast in Cooled wort and aerate.
top off with cool clean water to 4 Gallons or so in a carboy and water Lock it then wait a week or til bubbles are less than one every 30 secs.
rack to secondary Carboy (Leaving the First Sedimentary Cake Called a trub in the first Carboy) for one more week for Clarification.
Siphon to bottle bucket (Leaving the secondary trub) and pitch 3/4 Cup dextrose dissolved in BOILED tap water and cooled to ambient temp.
keg or bottle! if bottling wait a couple weeks then crack one open and have a taste!
Merry brewing!

Priming Amount: 3 tablespoons

Notes: The Mash
• Heat 2 quarts (1.9 liters) of water to 160°F (71°C).
• Add grain (This is called “mashing in.” Take note of jargon. Or don’t).
• Mix gently with spoon or spatula until mash has consistency of oatmeal.
Add water if too dry or hot. Temperature will drop to ~150°F (66°C).
• Cook for 60 minutes at 144-152°F (63-68°C). Stir every 10 minutes, and use
your thermometer to take temperature readings from multiple locations.
• You likely don’t need to apply heat constantly. Get it up to temperature,
then turn the heat off. Monitor, stir, and adjust accordingly to keep in range.
• After 60 minutes, heat to 170°F (77°C) while stirring constantly (“Mashing
Out”).

The Sparge
• Heat additional 4 quarts (3.8 liters) of water to 170°F (77°C).
• Set up your “lauter tun” (a strainer over a pot).
• Carefully add the hot grain mash to the strainer, collecting the liquid that
passes through.
• This liquid is called “wort” (pronounced “wert”). It will be your beer.
• Slowly and evenly pour 170°F (77°C) water over the mash to extract the
grain’s sugars.
• You want to collect 5 quarts (4.75 liters) of wort. You will lose about 20%
to evaporation later on, so you want to start with a bit more than you’ll end
with.
• Re-circulate wort through grain once.

The Boil
• In a pot, heat wort until it boils.
• Keep boiling until you’ve hit the “hot break” (Wort will foam - you may
need to reduce heat slightly so it doesn’t boil over.)
• Stir occasionally. All you want is a light boil – too hot and you lose
fermentable sugars and volume.
• The boil will last 60 minutes. Start your timer and add in the rest of the
ingredients at these times:
- Add 1/6 Northern Brewer Hops at start of boil.
- Add 1/6 Northern Brewer Hops at 15 minutes.
- Add 1/6 Northern Brewer Hops at 30 minutes.
- Add 1/6 Northern Brewer Hops at 45 minutes.
- Add 1/6 Northern Brewer Hops at 55 minutes.
- At 60 minutes turn off heat, add remaining Northern Brewer Hops.
• Twenty percent of the wort will have evaporated in this step leaving you
with 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of wort. If your boil was a bit high, the surface area
of your pot extra large, or you brewed on a really hot day, you may have
less than the full amount. Don’t worry – you just reduced your beer a bit
too much, but you can add more water in the next step.

Fermentation
• Place brew pot in an ice bath until it cools to 70°F (21°C).
• Once cooled, place strainer over funnel and pour your beer into the
glass fermenter. Yeast needs oxygen. The strainer helps aerate your wort
and clarify your beer (as well as catch any sediment from going into the
fermenter). Add tap water to bring wort up to 1 Gallon mark if level is low.
• “Pitch” yeast. (Toss half of the packet in.)
• Shake aggressively. You’re basically waking up the yeast and getting more
air into the wort.
• Attach sanitized screw-top stopper to bottle. Slide rubber tubing no more
than 1” (2.5 cm) into the stopper and place the other end in small bowl of
sanitizer. You’ve just made a “blow-off tube”. It allows CO2 to escape.
• Let sit for two or three days or until vigorous bubbling subsides. This is
when fermentation is highest. You may notice bubbles and foam at the
top of the beer. After bubbling calms down, clean tubing and ready your
airlock.
• Sanitize, then re-assemble airlock, filling up to line with sanitizer.
• Insert airlock into hole in stopper.
• Keep in a dark place for two weeks without disturbing other than to show
off to friends. (If beer is still bubbling, leave sitting until it stops.)
• In the meantime, drink beer with self-closing swing tops, or ask for empties
at a bar that has some. If you have a bottle capper and caps, you can save
two six packs of non-twistoff beers instead.

Two Weeks Later: Bottling
• Thoroughly rinse bottles with water, removing any sediment.
• Mix remaining sanitizer with water.
• Fill each bottle with a little sanitizer and shake. Empty after two minutes,
rinse with cold water and dry upside down.
• Dissolve 3 tablespoons honey with 1/2 cup water. Pour into a sanitized pot.
You will be siphoning your beer into the same pot in the next steps.
- Carbonation comes from adding sugar when bottling, so if you filled
your jug with less than the full gallon in the last step, use less honey
when bottling. Using the full amount can result in your beer being
over-carbonated.
• Siphoning (It all happens pretty fast. You may want to practice on a pot of
water a few times.) To see it in action first, watch the How to Bottle video at
brooklynbrewshop.com/instructions.
A. Attach open tubing clamp to tubing.
B. Fill tubing with sanitizer.
C. Attach sanitized tubing to the short curved end of your sanitized
racking cane. Attach the black tip to the other end - it will help
prevent sediment from getting sucked up. It will probably be a snug
fit, but you can get it on there.
D. Pinch tubing clamp closed.
E. Remove screw-cap stopper and place racking cane into jug, just
above the sediment at the bottom (“trub”).
F. Lower end of tubing not connected to racking cane into sink.
Suction will force beer up and through the racking cane and tubing.
Open tubing clamp, let sanitizer flow into sink until beer just starts
to flow out of the tubing, then clamp shut. Open clamp on tubing,
allowing beer to flow into pot with sugar solution. Tilt jug when beer
level is getting low, but be careful in not sucking up the trub.
• Siphon beer from pot into bottles, pinching tube clamp to stop flow after
each bottle.
• Close bottles.
• Store in a dark place for 2 weeks.

Two Weeks Later: Enjoying
• Put beers in the fridge the night before you drink them.
• Drink. Share with friends if you’re the sharing type
