Notes: Use new Simpsons DRC (Double-Roasted Crystal) Malts for the 2 lb of crystal malts. Use 2 packets of the yeast to ensure proper attenuation.
I filled a 22oz cup with fresh-picked, dried spruce needles (new growth needles). During the boil, I filled a muslin grain bag with the full 22 ozs of needles and steeped like tea at the end of the boil. Several needles will slip out, but they float, so I scooped them up with a sanitized mesh hand strainer before transferring to carboy.
Ferment in primary for 3 weeks, then transfer to a secondary and add .75 ozs of Chinook for a dry hop addition. At this time, add 1 TBSP of cinnamon, 1 tsp of allspice, and 5 drops of vanilla extract into the secondary fermentor.
Let sit in secondary for 2 weeks, then cold crash (I just put mine outside overnight on a 30F night). Transfer to keg, pressurize, pour, and enjoy. |

Notes: Long boil to increase melanoidins. Plan to convert this to Eisbock.
Finished 1030, 6 points higher that I wanted but yeast died at 9.4% ABV. But hops higher than style to compensate.
Took a Helles Bock and blended 20/80 to lessen sweetness of dopplebock. |

Notes: - Add brown sugar with 10 minutes left in the boil
- After 1 week fermentation: puree 4lbs overripe bananas (+6pts to gravity) with enough water to make a pourable paste. Bring mixture to 175F and let stand for 30 minutes. Add to secondary and siphon beer on top, allowing two more weeks' fermentation for the bananas.
Total OG (+ bananas) = 1.072
Approx ABV ~ 8% |

HALF TO MASH... HALF To SPARGE
If the pH is too high, this usually means adding acid malt (~1% of the grist for every intended .1 drop)
If the pH is too low I add chalk (which should ideally be dissolved in carbonated water first) or baking soda (which can be added directly to the mash).
Add first dry hop to fermentor at end of brewday!
