Notes: Brewed on 11/10/2013. OG was right on the money.
Update 11/14/13 - fermentation had already started the morning after brew day (which is typical for me) and as of last night it's slowed down quite a bit - all of my ales usually ferment out fairly quickly (I rarely have one still active on the 4th day). So now it'll sit for at least another 10 days to 2 weeks before it goes to keg (I don't ever rack to a secondary any more - gave that up years ago).
Update 11/29/13 - I usually keg my beers and let them carbonate naturally over a week or so, but with all the rain and then the preparations for the holidays I ran out of time and had to keg and force carb this batch just in time for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, so it was just a tad cloudy (FG 1.015). It tastes like Full Sail but I don't have any on hand to compare, but it's delicious - I'll be brewing this one again, for sure!
Update 12/10/13 - the beer has cleared and the hops have mellowed a bit. This beer tastes fantastic! I'm trying to limit myself to just one whenever I go to the tap so that the 1st keg lasts through Christmas - I'm taking the 2nd one to a New Year's Eve party where I know it'll be a big hit!
If you're a fan of Full Sail Amber Ale, you will like this recipe. This is one terrific Amber Ale!
If you brew this, leave a comment and let me know what you think. |

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: It's brown, it's named after a large North American ungulate, and its name suggests oral incontinence. Ah, we market product with our minds, but we drink beer with our mouths! Which is why this American brown ale is your new favorite session beer. Dense layers of malt, caramel, baking chocolate, and a hint of light-roast coffee give way to reveal a hop character you'll be surprised to find if you're used to drinking English brown ale. The finish is complex but balanced, and the gravity is not so high as to keep you from having another. |

Notes: Mash low, after mashing and sparging briefly raise temp to pasteurise wort. Cool to about 40 C
Before adding lactobacillus sp. lower pH to 4.5;
Keep bacteria in the kettle until pH drops to 3.4
Then boil normally with hops schedule.
Ferment
Add 900g of pureed blackcurrant to secondary for 7 days. Use hop bag for berries.
update 15/12/2018
Bottled, took pH and it came to 3.25 which is very sour. Tastes sour and dry.
update 02/12/2019
Opened a bottle after 2 weeks conditioning. The sourness is much better and rounder. Galaxy complements berries very well. Very nice easy-drinking beer. |

Notes: - Tasting notes: Color is perfect. Clarity (whirlfloc + gel) really helped. Lacing and head are spot on. The bittering could come up a tick (from 60 to 70 perhaps.) Amarillo feels pretty orang'y and almost mellow! Maybe try the same recipe but swap some of the Amarillo for Cascade or event Centennial (more aggressively citrus'y.) I think using two "aroma" hops isn't enough. Something heavy hitting like Simcoe, Centennial, etc is needed for the heavy, hoppy backbone...
Now to try Centennial instead of Citra and make the adjustments mentioned above: http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/91377/hopstand-ipa-v4-centennial-amarillo |
