Notes: This recipe is based on the 2 recipes provided by Weathered Souls Brewery at this link... https://blackisbeautiful.beer/

The intent of the collaborative brew (nearly 1000 breweries in 37 countries as of this writing) is to "Raise awareness for the injustices people of color face daily and raise funds for police brutality reform and legal defenses for those who have been wronged."

The recipe isn't exactly the original. Weathered Souls encourages us to be creative. I have used Flaked Rye in place of Flaked Barely. Being Canadian I thought that would go better with the roasted rye, eh? Plenty of other little changes... my first recipe with 10 different grains in it. (Maple Syrup was also added during the boil when it was clear the sugar level was lower than expected.)

I reduced the relative quantities of the most roasted grains. The resulting wort was an amazing combination of sweet chocolate, coffee and toffee flavours with little harsh burnt taste.

This recipe was made specifically for a 50L/45L All-in-One electric brew kettle. e.g. Arsegan EasyBrew, Brew Monk Magnus and others. As this will be a full mash basket, I achieved 64% efficiency instead of 74% or more. A 90 minute mash (or longer) is recommended for good extraction.

Brewed with Amsterdam (NL) tapwater and lactic acid additions until the pH was 5.2. No salts.

These calcs are for an 7.4% ABV Oatmeal Stout and have been refined based on the results of first brewing on June 30, 2020.

BREW PLAN
- Mash in brew 1
- Use Second kit to heat sparge water
- Brew 1 knock out and whirlpool
- Cooling 20-30 min
- Brew 2 mash in - now from this point we have 1 hour to quick clean brew 1 kit to heat sparge water
- How long does heating take?
- Brew 1 (now transferred to fermenter) use brew 1 kit to heat sparge water for brew 2

WATER PROFILE
pd raw liqour pH: 7.9
pd liqour hot at 0.6ml/ltr lactic pH: 5.3

****** Figure out water******

Losses estimation:
Grain absorbsion 1ltr/kg = 7 ltr

Sparge volume: 13ltr to hit 30ltr kettle preboil

Evap estimate 4ltrs/hr at 1900 watts = 4ltr = wort vol post boil target 26ltr
Kettle trub hops = 1.5 ltr = wort volume post hops/trub = 24.5
Shrinkage 4% = 1ltr = 23.5ltrs in fermenter
Total = 15ltr loss
Post boil target 24-25ltr

Vorlauf at start with grainscreen/sieve on top of mash

Whilst sparging with jug? set kettle to 90c to preheat

grain bin into bucket incase we need to sparge more

Use sieve & skim husk on top
Quick vorlauf pre boil and use sieve to catch any more husk

BOIL:
Sample:
Preboil: around 1050-1054
Preboil gravity with refractometer & pippet, cool with ice water
ph target 5 and lactic treatment at 0.1ml/0.1 pH above 5.0

Target evapouration 20% + 4% shrinkage

Whirlpool:
- Boil off
- Cool to 75c
- Powerdrill for whirlpool?
- 20-30 min rest

Boil around 102/103 c

Notes: My efficiency was extremely high on this one with OG = 1.060 so ABV will hinge on that. I use BIAB and dunk bag in 2 gallons of 170F water for a ghetto sparge then add the liquid from tun and top to 6.5gal boil.

Simcoe bittering and Cascade late addition/dry hop combo was spot on. Tasted like a mock IPA without the lingering bitterness. My wife loved this beer and I think she drank more than me!

Great 3-week beer start to finish (kegged).

Notes: Assuming volume loss to lots of hops, so 3.25 gal post boil should get about 3 gal into fermentor. Then after about a quart loss to trub and maybe another quart to dry hops, I’m shooting for 2.5 gal finished beer.

Multiple hopping methods: mash hops, first wort, flameout, two whirlpool additions (200° and 180°; ten minute stand each), three dry hop additions (after one day, after four days, and after seven days - or post-fermentation - three days each, removing the prior hops first). After fermentation complete, closed transfer to purged keg or carboy onto last dry hop addition, and then either serve from that keg with the hops still in it, or closed transfer into another purged keg again (off of hops).
