Notes: We messed up by adding too much where without adding rice hulls. The mash all stuck together allowing much our sparge water to go right down the sides. This left us with a lower original gravity than expected: 1.060

The souring process proved difficult with ph test strips. We couldn't get an accurate reading on our acidity and I don't think our beer turned out as sour as we wanted. (we only soured it for 18 hours)

Mash the grains at 155°F (68°C) for 45 minutes. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains to obtain 6 gallons (23 l) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes. For the lactose, remove the kettle from the heat, stir in the lactose, return the kettle to the heat, and bring it back to a boil for the remaining 10 minutes.

Do not introduce the whirlpool hops at the first whirlpool, as they will inhibit the Lactobacillus blend. Pre-acidify the wort to a pH of 4.5, then chill the wort to 95°F (35°C) and pitch the Lactobacillus blend. There’s no need to hold the heat at 95°F (35°C), but don’t allow it to drop much below 75°F (24°C). After a pH of 3.2–3.3 is obtained, reheat the wort to 180°F (82°C) and follow the hopping schedule for the second whirlpool. After the whirlpool, rest for 15 minutes, then chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 66°F (19°C). Aerate the wort and pitch the British Ale yeast.

Hold fermentation at 68°F (20°C) for 24 hours once signs of fermentation are visible. Allow the temperature to rise to 70°F (21°C) during the remainder of fermentation, following the dry-hop schedule. After adding the vanilla and blackberries, allow the berries to ferment out at 70°F (21°C).

HOPS AND ADDITIONS SCHEDULE
2.8 lb (635 g) lactose at 10 minutes
2.6 oz (37 g) Citra [12.2% AA] at 2nd whirlpool for 5 minutes
2.6 oz (37 g) El Dorado [15% AA] at 2nd whirlpool for 5 minutes
.8 oz (11 g) Chinese cassia bark at 2nd whirlpool for 5 minutes
5.4 oz (77 g) Citra [12.2% AA] at dry hop for 5 days
5.4 oz (77 g) El Dorado [15% AA] at dry hop for 5 days
1.4 oz (20 g) Chinese cassia bark at dry hop for 5 days
.5 oz (7 g) vanilla beans for 5 days
22 lb (4.1 kg) blackberries for 5 days

Notes: The first place winner in the 2017 AHA National Homebrew Competition in American IPA. Chase's IPA is a bit of a hybrid with a look back at the West Coast with some "new" New England flair.

Notes: update 10/5/2020. Adding additional process notes. When base beer is hald fermented add the blueberries. I get frozen blueberries from the grocery store, thaw overnight, then blend into puree in the blender. I used 6lbs blueberry for this batch but that is probably too much. It tasted like juice instead of beer. Probably next time use 3 or 4 lb. Scrape the vanilla bean and soak in small amount of vodka with lemon zest for at least 2 days before adding to the beer.

Update 11/26/18 : brewed this last night, decided not to go with the belgian yeast - it was really old, i wanted to make a week long starter to prove it was still viable and the number of healthy yeast in there is probably low. anyway just went with the 1056 now we will just call it a blonde ale i guess. teal suggested that blueberry muffins often have lemon. plenty of ways to do this but i think i am going to zest 1 lemon and add it to the vanilla bean vodka mixture for a couple days before going into secondary. decided the amount based off of this discussion : https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/how-many-lemons-zest.15966/#post-249484
also considered using dried peel. would have to order or go to brew store for that though so we'll try the zest.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
10/24/2018 : copied from 2016's trustmonkey belgian blond. removing cane sugar and LME, changed from pilsner malt to 2row, adjusting efficiency, adding some base malt to make up for removed sugars but also to increase abv to around 7. adjusting crystal malts to match original recipe percentages. switched to only hallertau for simplicity. im seeing sample belgian blonde with 5.6AAU for 60 mins (https://byo.com/article/belgian-blond-style-profile/) so ill go with about that, and add some flavoring hops as well. not sure how much blueberry to use yet......rb10242018
--------------------
copied from 2015's blinde recipe. came out with 5 gallons exactly but was under on gravity - 1.044 (without the sugar), wanted to hit 1.051. By chance I have some Pilsen LME so I will add enough to add 7 pts. Wort has been chilling for one day while yeast starter....starts. Adding the LME and pitching tonight (night after brew night)

Notes: After Fermentation, add an additional 5.5 gallons of (boiled for 10 mins) filtered water to dilute the beer down to 4% ABV. Doing this will remove the yeast flavor, bringing it in line with the style. It's also important to properly lager and use the finings listed to clear up the beer.

Your Bud light drinking friends will love it!

Notes: 1. Used center burner to bring it to 170F but it took too long; moved it to outer burner and it shot up to 200F pretty quick. Took off towels/insulation and at the end of 80m, it was down to 160F. Not sure how this'll affect the flavor.
2. Soaked medium toast oak chips in bourbon overnight, then decided to add them, along with vanilla pods, to the secondary. (6 Jun)

2SG: 1.027
FSG: 1.025 (4.86%)

Calculated amount of 45% bourbon to add; 2.75 gal of 4.86% beer + 1 cup 45% bourbon = 5.7% beer.

Notes: 18# into 5 Gallon Batch - Pressure Can 20 Quarts of ~1.080 Wort - Dilute to 2L at a target 1.037og

4/1/16 - First Brew Day
7.5g Strike - Hit temp pretty close. Lots of sticking in the mash, and had to play with the PID to handle the thickness. No yeast nutrient in the boil (forgot), lots of trub in the jars. Canned up and the trub seemed to clump up and drop down a bit, will have to test the first can to see how it does on target OG at 2L
