Notes: Ever since I tried the biscuity holiday flavors of Southern Tier Pumking a couple months ago, I've been considering doing my own take on a holiday spiced ale. However, I wanted mine to be served closer to Christmas time. That's how I got the idea for this Gingerbread Porter. Finally, with the help of a few good friends we made this specialty holiday porter last night while eating home-made pizzas and listening to Irish drinking songs. All in all, a pretty decent Wednesday night.

Gingerbread Porter:

Mash temperature: .5 Gallons @ 158 Fahrenheit / 45 minutes (.5 lbs patent and .5 lbs crystal malt)
Sparge temperature: .5 Gallons @ 170 Fahrenheit

Boil Volume: 3 Gallons for 1 hour (add wort to 2 gallons of water. Bring to a boil. Add 6.6 Dark LME, Malto-dextrin, Lactose, Molasses, Brown Sugar, and 1 oz of Kent Golding.)

15 minutes left of boil add 1 oz Hallertau

Add Ginger, Clove, and Cinnamon at flame out.
Add 2 Gallons of Water - bringing total Volume up to 5 Gallons

Cool to 69 Fahrenheit and Pitch Yeast (S 04)

Very pale straw color. Nose has wonderful Belgian esters and phenols with a hint of malt. Taste is very good with slightly subdued esters and earthy phenols. Ferment at higher temperature if more fruity esters are desired. Carbonation is high and pretty much perfect. Overall a delicious, easy drinking beer.

Notes: I've been sad that I couldn't do all grain because I only have a 5 gal pot. Then I realized that I can absolutely do a smaller batch to get my feet wet until I can afford that big brew kettle. So I built the mash tun and made an immersion chiller while I was at it. I created the recipe using Brewtarget and scaled for the 4.5 gal maximum I could boil.

Anyway, this is what I came up with for my first all grain brew. I wanted to keep it simple and basic. We'll see how it tastes and then work on repeating it. Once I can repeat it well I will begin with simple modifications. Then I will take over the world.....or just drink beer.

So far I've learned a lot. The mash process was fun and interesting. I will be working on reducing liquid loss in the tun for sure.

Fermentation just didn't seem to be happening. The yeast packet says to just sprinkle on the wort. Instead I took about a third of the packet and stirred it in, sprinkled the rest on top. Wort was at 73*, right in the range the yeast had called for. Nothing.

By Tuesday I decided to buy another packet of yeast. Sprinkled all on top. Two more days of nothing.

Then I brought the fermenter in to the kitchen. Within 30 minutes the airlock was speaking to me. Within two hours it was speaking loudly. It seems that this yeast doesn't like the cold of the 56* beer closet. The kitchen is always either 68* or 62* (programmable thermostat for the house) and it likes this much better.

So now that I have a 10 gallon pot and grain mill on order, I know what the next area of focus will be. It's time to start thinking about temperature control. I want to do it as green a possible. Insulation. Digital temperature monitoring and control using the Arduino. Could be fun.

Update: A week after bottling we tried two of these. The beer is amazingly clear with a color that is a very dark amber, not quite brown. There is a very fruity smell. Unfortunately they both tasted like vinegar. I'm not sure the cause, maybe sanitation. Maybe too high of fermentation temp? Maybe I got overanxious and overpitched the yeast? I'm thinking that it had something to do with the point at which I added that second packet of yeast and that the vigorous fermentation could have been a clue that something went wrong.

Notes: Of all the lagers I've made, this is the closest to commercial pilsners and is very similar to Peroni, Budweiser, Corona etc. It benefited from spending a few weeks in an outdoor shed in winter - a few freezing nights helped make it very bright and clear.

To make the lager dry and crisp, the recipe uses quick-cook rice and quick-cook polenta (the nearest things I could find in the drop-down menu were "flaked rice" and "grits", but I didn't use these). Because these adjuncts are "quick cook", they don't need a cereal mash - they just need to be cooked to make them mushy and expose the starch.

First prepare your water (profile light colored and malty). Then take a few litres out of it to boil the rice and polenta as per intructions on the packet. Let the pan of mushy rice + polenta fall to strike temp and simply tip it into the tun with the mash water at same strike temperature. Easy.

I did a full-volume mash for convenience and to save time. Efficiency will be a bit higher if you sparge.

Notes: Mengden meske- og skyllevann du bør bruke kommer an på utstyret og metoden du brygger med. Som et anslag kan vi si at du kan bruke 40 l meskevann og 28 l skyllevann til dette ølet. Noen bryggemaskiner (f.eks. Speidel Braumeister) kan kreve større mengder meskevann. Sjekk alltid manualen på utstyret du bruker.

Mesking på 66 grader i 60 min. Utmesk på 77 grader i 5 min hvis du har mulighet til å øke temperatur i mesken.

Kjøl ned til 17 grader før pitching av gjær.

Gjæring på 18 grader til stormgjæring begynner å avta (typisk etter 3-5 dager). Øk deretter til 20 grader og hold resten av gjæringsperioden (totalt 14 dager). Tørrhumle etter 5 dager.

Gjæralternativer: WLP001, WLP007, WLP008, WLP041, WLP051, WLP090, Danstar Nottingham

Notes: Would be category 31, alternative fermentables beer - subcategory 31A, alternative grain beer... but listing it here as a English Barleywine to get the numbers in a similar ballpark (English Barleywine, or even Wheatwine - with oats instead of wheat, would be base style).

Bake half or all of flaked oats in oven if want to add a toasted oat flavor (just keep an eye on them - can burn easily).

I BIAB, so I’m not worried about a stuck sparge, but I’d add rice hulls if you are, with this much oats. The Beta-Glucanase rest helps reduce this as well.

Can use hops of your choice, but I’m aiming for British varieties... First Gold, Target, or Fuggles would also work.

Lots of options for yeast - want good attenuation and some fruity esters, so Kölsch or an attenuative English Ale yeast such as WLP007, Wyeast 1028 London Ale, 1098 British Ale, 1318 London Ale III, 1335 British Ale II, 1450 Denny’s Favorite 50, 1728 Scottish Ale, or other dry yeast equivalent. Grists with high percentages of oats have been shown to produce more diacetyl than barley, so slowly raise (2°/day) fermentation temp after 3-4 days active fermentation, to around 68-70 for a diacetyl rest.

Age on oak if desired. Cold crash and gelatin fine before packaging.

Notes: Smoked malt is actually smoked wheat.

Mash grains & sparge in a 6L pressure cooker. Add LME and brown sugar (the best aromatic brown sugar you can find). Add 0.25tsp sodium hydroxide powder and boil the wort down until you can begin pressure cooking. Boil under max pressure for 1-2 hours, then relieve pressure and add 0.25tsp citric acid. This will neutralize the hydroxide and will turn it into sodium citrate, which is a mild club soda flavor.
Add hops. Boil hops in maximum possible volume. Shoot for 50-60 IBU.

Filter wort through nylon bag to minimize hop debris.

Pitch large starter of US-05 and US-04 in equal amounts, start with open fermentation in a cold environment. Aerate periodically first 48 hours, rouse periodically for 10 days.
This will foam up your entire house.
Finish with WLP099 high gravity yeast.
Rack to secondary after 3-4 weeks fermentation for 1 week, then bottle condition.
