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: 3/25/11 - 1.019. 1.25 oz muddled mint leaves, 6 oz of baker's chocolate racked into secondary fermentor. Tastes real good, slight off taste that lingers, otherwise real good.
3/28/11 - 1.018 - Real strong mint flavor, hopefully the carbonation and cold serving temp will dull the mint out a little. Want to bottle ASAP so the mint doesn't grow anymore. Wish I could get some more chocolate and less mint. I do love mint, but I don't know if others will. |

Notes: Using this base recipe to test various hop flavors. Leave the Perle and switch out only the last 2 hops.
STRAIN: 1272 AMERICAN ALE II:
Ferment at warmer temperatures to accentuate hop character with an increased fruitiness. Or, ferment cool for a clean, light citrus character. It attenuates well and is reliably flocculent, producing bright beer without filtration.
Or
STRAIN: 1332 NORTHWEST ALE:
It produces a malty and mildly fruity ale with good depth and complexity.
*********************
RESULTS: Good tasting simple beer to see what the flavors of cascade really taste like. Great cheap beer for the weekend. |
