Notes: Clone of "Bomb!" by Prairie Artisan Ales, published in BYO and authored by Dave Clark.
Ingredients, adjusted for what is available at Micro Homebrew:
- 16 lbs -- Rahr, Premium Pilsner
- 14 oz -- Bairds, Black Malt
- 14 oz -- Crisp, Roasted Barley
- 14 oz -- Simpsons, Naked Oats
- 14 oz -- Briess, Chocolate
- 14 oz -- Bestmalz, Melanoidin
- The original recipe directs to use a 2 qt/lbs mash thickness, but that won't fit in my mash tun, so I'm going to shoot for 1.5 and just monitor the conversion using a refractometer.
- I typically mash in my brewing kettle without a false bottom and then transfer to my plastic cooler mash tun in order to conduct the sparge. The transfer only takes a couple minutes and this strategy allows me to use direct heat as needed to adjust the mash temperature as things cool.
- I also typically mash out at 168°F or so for 10 minutes. This recipe instead directs you to sparge with 170°F water. I intend to skip the mash out step and go directly to the sparge.
- 7.7 AAU -- Magnum (60m)
- Yeast Nutrient (use as directed on bottle)
- Sparge with enough water at 170 °F (76.7 °C) to collect 7.5 gallons (28.4 L) of runoff
- Top up to 5.5 gallons in the fermenter as needed.

Notes: Add Hops at day 2. Used Potassium Sorbate and Metabisulfate to stabilize at 1.5 months, then back sweetened to taste.
Has more orange flavor and less grapefruit taste from the mead now discontinued by Superstition Meadery.
Brewing process based on :
https://superstitionmeadery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/pages59-61.pdf
Day 1: Clean and sanitize everything. Mix the honey and water
until thoroughly blended. Mix in 8 grams each of DAP and
Fermaid K. Oxygenate the must using an oxygen stone and pure
oxygen for about 5 minutes. (This high quantity of oxygen is
needed to ensure complete fermentation.) Pitch the yeast.
On Day 2 of fermentation, after degassing for the day (see
below), add the hops and mix thoroughly. During fermentation,
the hops will float on top; mix them back in daily while mixing in
nutrients and degassing.
Until the gravity drops below 1.080, add more oxygen daily. Until
the gravity drops below 1.060, degas to pull CO2
out of solution.
(Gently shake the vessel to begin releasing gas; gradually increase
intensity until you can shake heavily without foam rising and it’s
entirely flat. A stainless-steel drill aerator is a great option but go
slow.) Also, until the gravity drops below 1.060, add 4 oz (113 g) each
of DAP and Fermaid K and 1 tsp (5 ml) potassium carbonate daily.
After the gravity drops below 1.060, you do not need to manage
daily anymore. Allow about 2 weeks for fermentation to complete.
When it is finished, add 0.2 oz (6 g) of potassium metabisulfite.
Fining: Use the method you prefer and let it clear up as long as
you’d like; if you can cold crash it, even better. Rest in secondary
for 6–8 weeks, ensuring that fermentation is complete. Then
bottle or keg and serve slightly chilled. |
