Notes: SINGLE DECOCTION MASHING INSTRUCTIONS
Use 4G stainless kettle for sparge heating
Use smaller nonstick kettle for decoction
1) Mash-in to hit 140F and rest 5min
2) Remove 1qt of thick mash per pound of grist (approx 1/3 of wet grain volume)
14lbs of grain, means remove 14qts (3.5g) of mash
Cover main mash
3) Heat decoction while main mash rests
Heat to 155F and rest 5min
Bring to boil while stirring constantly (takes prob 10min)
Boil while stirring for 5min
4) Return decoction to main mash until it hits 156F (scoop & stir) for 20min.
If needed, allow remaining decoction to cool separately, and add periodically to maintain the main mash temp
5) Mash out at 170.6F
***
Ferment at 10C (50F) until hitting FG (watch the TILT !)
Pressure transfer to keg and lager in keezer ON CO2 for 4 weeks.

HeadBrewer says:
Without giving out too much info, here are some basics on Dunkel...
85% Munich malt 5% Pils – the other 10% are several higher color malts.
13P OG (1.053)
18 IBU, one addition at boil begin of German Perle
Single decoction
Ferment at 10C (50F)
Total fermentation and lager time – 5 weeks
German Lager yeast – we don’t use this strain, but I would recommend 34/70. I don’t know what Wyeast or White labs call it, but they will recognize the number and have it in their bank under another name.
Pitch 15-20MM cells/mL – that means if you brew 5 gallons, you should pitch about 1 gallon of yeast starter. I would aggressively aerate the starter, let it fully ferment at room temp, cool it down to 10C/50F, let it floc out. On brew day, decant the beer supernatant off the yeast and add about 12 oz of sterile wort, pitch into your batch at high kraeusen. (starter yeast supernatant has been aerated and may cause off flavor since you are pitching so much into the new batch of wort) The yeast starter should not be warmer than the chilled wort or you will shock the yeast. Because you need a lot of yeast to pitch cold, dry yeast is not a bad option. Pitch more dry yeast packets than you would with an ale. Too little yeast is a bigger problem than too much. You could also add the dry yeast to a small amount of wort on brew day and pitch at high kraeusen. |

Notes: Work in progress. Not started brewing the first batch yet.
Our brown Labrador is named Bilbo, it's well past time for a tribute beer. What could be more fitting than a British Brown Ale? I want the fruity/raisin-y taste from Special B, thus the name Bilbo Special.
This batch:
Infusion mash got a bit too hot, ended up with 67 C for 60 min.
FG seems to stall at 1.020, resulting in ABV 4.2 (~4.4 - 4.5 with bottle conditioning). End result will probably be somewhere between a modern British Brown Ale and a London Brown Ale; a sweet and somewhat fruity British Brown Ale. Not bad, but not adhering to a specific style. |
