=============================
10/9/2023
trying to make cider again! got 1 gallon cider from chiles peach orchard this afternoon. plan is to :
* SCRATCH heat 1/2 gallon to medium heat (??? temp)
* SCRATCH -----add 0.2 lb brown sugar----
* add 1tsp pumpkin pie spice
* 1 tsp yeast nutrient
* ferment with half pack of us05
* keg and carb and put on draft
leaning toward leaving out the sugar. seeing online the cider unfermented might be in the 1050s and may ferment down to 1000 making it 6% out the gate so more than likely sugar is not going to be needed in the base!!!
some abandoned ideas / other ideas for next time
* lutra
* raisins
* apple skins
* proper back sweetening
* dropping yeast nutrient - maybe yeast will stall and leave some sugar
* bourbon oak aged imperial apple cider / apple wine

Notes: Mash all of the base & specialty malts (except the Belgian candi syrup) at 154 for 60 minutes, then sparge per standard Grainfather steps. Once sparged, move 1 to 1.5 gallons of the wort to a side-pot and add the candi syrup. Boil this side pot on maximum heat for 15 minutes, try to reduce it to half. The goal's to get the side-pot to cause some caramelization and higher-order sugar recombination, |

Notes: Mashed in with 19L@70c strike for a 68c Mash
Difficult recirc during mash, grain bill on the cusp of too large for the vessel (even with rice hulls)
1.082 post mash, pre sparge
Sparged with 12L@75c
Slow Sparge noted also (expected due to above issue)
1.065 Pre Boil. Decided to only do a 30 min total boil due to not wanting too high of gravity. Also noted LOTS of grain in the boil. Have concerns of astringency now due to this.
1.073 post boil (SG) over target = 64% Efficiency
Had a PH of 5.25 during mash
PH of 5.4 after boil into cube for no chill. |

Notes: Is this too bitter for bitter? I've been wondering about bitterness calculations, and seeing information in magazines that seems to indicate I'm undershooting if I want the level of bitterness suggested for the style. I've decided I will try a couple of batches where I intentionally "over-hop" to see if the beers taste and smell like the styles I'm going for.
yeast starter: 4 oz. dry malt plus a few hop pellets and a dash of yeast nutrient in 1500 ml of water, boiled 10 minutes and then cooled
brew day: Friday, November 24
clear skies, 42 degrees F air temp, no wind
grain temp 60 degrees F
invert sugar was a late addition to the recipe. been looking at that jar of invert sugar for over a year, wondering when it would come in handy. Fits in a Burton Ale recipe perfectly, I said to myself.
boiled 7 gallons
transferred 5.5 gallons to fermenter, O.G. 1.068
Saturday, December 9
F.G. 1.015
add 4 oz. corn sugar boiled in 4 cups water
54 bottles, orange crowns
taste is earthy, raisiny, not very bitter, more balanced |
