Notes: Batch notes:
-Dry hop after fermentation for 2 weeks, 3 onces cascade whole
-Burton Salts 30g - modify target water
- 3 bags yeast (Calm fermentation?)
- OG 1.066 - EXACTLY ON POINT
-Wort flavor excessively bitter (minerals?)
-increase adjust boil size
Beer notes:
Bitterness could be increased (low AA content?)
Very nice juicy grapefruit aroma
Cloudy gives it a nice apperance
Creamy head and silky texture
Very tropical feel; bright orange color, zesty flavor, creamy texture. Could benefit from a zest addition in secondary and/or nelson sauvin. |

Notes: I increased the dry hop to 1.5 ounces of each Loral and Sorachi Ace because I notice the Sorachi Ace where from the 2019 Season. While this is a pretty solid saison, I think a third hop variety like Amarillo or Mosaic would really make this sing. |

"Homebrewing is a convenient solution to the challenges of keeping beer consumption safe during breastfeeding. Kegging critically offers the option to drink less than a full glass without dying a little on the inside. The alcohol percentage is also entirely within the control of the homebrewer, and furthermore, certain ingredients might actually increase supply and make nursing easier.
Of the ingredients cited as potentially beneficial, some advocated dark or roasted grains, while there was definite support for oatmeal and especially hops. This lead to an obvious style choice: Oatmeal Stout. The only other considerations were keeping the alcohol percentage low and slightly boosting the hop profile.
This beer turned out quite well; smooth and very roasty with some notes of dark fruit, almost like a very dark brown as opposed to a stout. The hop character was present, and a more assertive profile would not have been offensive." |

Notes: BREW NOTES
First brewed 30/08/2015. Want to try push mash temp up and see whether improves mash efficiency.
MASH NOTES.
Only getting around 60-63% efficiency. Have tried all manner of things to bump up. Looked through old notes and remembered that even with a pre Tun heat up, I still need an extra 2 deg C on top of brewers friend calcs. Last 3 brews all around 64-65 deg C mash temp on purpose.(wanted drier beers then but efficiency suffered) This time have bumped up mash temp extra 2 deg aiming for 67-68 deg C over 90 mins. Extra 2 deg C last thing to test before changing to smaller esky cooler Tun.
Ambient temp 18 deg C (end of winter) 30/08/2015
I have tun insulated with cardboard and wrapped in blanket.
Single Infusion.
Grain temp 13 deg C
2.5 L/1kg grain
Strike (brewers Friend) 21L @ 77deg C.
Actual Strike 79.5 Deg C. Adjust for your equipment.
After 30 mins sitting on 67-68 Deg C. Stirred
After 60 mins sitting on 66 Deg C. Added 2L boiling water. No noticeable temp changed.
After 90 mins finished at
Mash Out
Raised temp to 68-69 deg C stir and mash for 10 more minutes = 4 liters @ boiling (adjust for your equipment)
Took first running's and Re-circ'd added
12 litres @ boiling to reach 77 deg C sacc

FERM NOTES
Nottingham yeast (Danstar) re-hydration 1.064 slightly high for 1 packet. I re-hydrated only.
Original Gravity 1.076 way higher but 22L
Final Gravity
ABV %
After BREW Notes
Mash temp rise to 68deg C haven't worked. Hit 1.076 but 22L. This is 63% which is my standard efficiency. I added 2L of fresh water to bring it down to 1.070 may add another 1L to make 1.067. Brewer's Friend calcs at 63% efficiency. Had my usual 34 liter to start boil. Left a bit more in pot so not as much trube went in, but still 6L off. Not sure why the extra boil off today.
The extra 2L of water isn't something I like to do, but ABV would be too high for 1 packet of dry yeast. Extra water will bring with some oxygen to aid yeast. Should it attenuate as per all my other brews 80%+ 1.010 i'll end up with an imperial-ish 7.8% 1.012 finish 7.6% down side is I wanted a hoppy plain-ish IPA lucky the extra IBU's are in it as it will still be a balanced beer with a 1.012+ finish.
FG 1.016 added extra water.ABV 6.69%

Notes: Second time brewing to this recipe. No time to make a starter, used two vials of WLP001.
Tasters results are in - great response! Most say "smooth bitterness", "citrus aroma/flavor"
Balanced, no distractions from malt or yeast.
Same recipe that won first place in local tasting competition in October 2013.
Now a permanent spot in the portfolio of regulars. |
