Notes: Ingredients, Part 1:
7 x 96 ounce bottles (5.25 gallons) Wegmans 100% Apple Juice, pasteurized, only vitamin C added
2 lbs. Dextrose
Nottingham Yeast

Ingredients, Part 2
5 campden tablets (Optional, see notes)
5 – 12 oz. cans of Frozen Apple Juice Concentrate, thawed to room temperature
12 oz. Caramel Syrup

Recipe for Caramel Syrup:
2 cups of water
2 cups of light brown sugar
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
Combine in a saucepan and bring to a boil. At boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes (until volume is reduced to half). Let cool & bottle for future use.

Part 1 (Started 1/7/12):
Opened 1 bottle of apple juice, got a gravity reading of 1.050. Temp is 64 degrees.

In a 6 gallon carboy, pour in bottles 1 and 2 of apple juice.

Open bottles 3 and 4 of apple juice. Pour half of each bottle into carboy. Add 1 pound dextrose per bottle to the remaining amount of apple juice in bottles 3 and 4. Shake bottles to mix sugar and apple juice. Pour bottles 3 and 4 into carboy.

Pour bottles 4, 5, and 6 of apple juice into carboy. Take another sample for OG, got a reading of 1.064. Open Nottingham yeast, pour into carboy. Agitate carboy to mix in yeast. Pour bottle 7 of apple juice into carboy.

Part 2 (In about 14 days):
Check for target FG of 1.010 to 1.015

Rack cider into a 5 gallon carboy.
OPTION: If you want a still cider, add 5 crushed Campden tablets to the cider at this time. If you want a carbonated cider, skip this optional step.
Make the Caramel Syrup and wait 24 hours before proceeding.

After 24 hours, siphon cider into your bottling bucket. Add the Caramel Syrup and the 5 cans of apple juice concentrate while siphoning to aid in mixing. Bottle the cider and enjoy.

If you are carbing in the bottle, be aware that this will carb up fast (4 - 5 days) due to all the sugar. I highly recommend that you fill and cap a plastic pop or beer bottle first, and use that as a guide to tell you when it will be time to Stovetop Pasteurize the batch.

Notes: OG: 1.046
FG: 1.016
ABV: 3.94%

Conversions:

576 ounces of cider = 4.5 gallons

72 ounces of concentrate = 6 12-ounce cans

Instructions:

1. Thaw the 6 cans of apple juice concentrate and pour into sanitized fermenter.

2. Pour in the 4.5 gallons of cider. *Unpasteurized and without preservatives is preferred, but if unavailable, yeast nutrient can be added to overcome the preservatives.*

3. Add yeast.

4. Let ferment until bubbling stops (approx. 2-3 weeks).

5. Fill a secondary bottling bucket with 6 MORE cans of thawed apple juice concentrate. This will act as your priming sugar, as well as extra flavoring. (I only added 5 cans to my batch because of a shopping error)

6. Rack fermented cider into bottling bucket, leaving the majority of sediment behind. Let sit overnight at room temperature.

7. Bottle. After several days, test a bottle to check carbonation levels. Refrigerate when ready.

As with all my recipes, I welcome comments, suggestions, and questions.

Notes: Guinness-Style Dry Stout
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.041 (10.3°P)
FG = 1.010 (2.6°P)
IBU = 41 SRM = 44 ABV = 4.1%

Ingredients
6.25 lb. (2.83 kg) Crisp British pale ale malt or similar Maris Otter malt
1.75 lb. (794 g) Great Western flaked barley
14.0 oz. (397 g) Great Western roasted barley (500 °L) (crushed to powder)
8.35 AAU Kent Golding pellet hops (1.67 oz./47 g at 5% alpha acid) (60 min.)
White Labs WLP004 (Irish Ale), Wyeast 1084 (Irish Ale) or Fermentis Safale US-05 yeast

Step by Step
Crush the roasted barley very fine. Run it through a coffee mill or use a rolling pin to turn it almost to dust. That is critical to getting the right flavor and color with this recipe. Mill the remaining grains as normal and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 120 °F (49 °C). Hold the mash at 120 °F (49 °C) for 15 minutes then raise the temperature to 150 °F (66 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons (24.4 L) and the gravity is 1.032 (8.1 °P).

The total wort boil time is 90 minutes. Add the bittering hops with 60 minutes remaining in the boil. Add Irish moss or other kettle finings with 15 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort rapidly to 65 °F (18 °C), let the break material settle, rack to the fermenter, pitch the yeast and aerate.

Ferment at 65 °F (18 °C). Slowly raise the temperature during the final 1⁄3 of fermentation by 6 °F (3 °C) to reduce diacetyl levels in the beer. When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 1 to 1.5 volumes and serve at 52 to 55 °F (11 to 13 °C).

Extract with Grains Option
Replace the British pale ale malt and flaked barley with 5.25 lb. (2.38 kg) Muntons pale ale liquid malt extract.

Partial Mash Option
The recipe becomes 1 lb. (0.45 kg) British pale ale malt, 1.75 lb. (794 g) flaked barley, 14 oz. (397 g) roasted barley, and 3.5 lb. (1.58 kg) Muntons pale ale liquid malt extract. Place the crushed grains and flaked barley in a steeping bag. Heat 5 quarts (~ 5 L) to 160 °F (71 °C), add grain bag, and let steep for approximately one hour. Rinse out the grains and proceed as normal, adding the extract and water to the steeping liquor.

Notes: Mash & steeping: The mash is acidified to a pH of 5.4 with phosphoric acid.

I'm assuming low efficiency because I use most of the second runnings either for another brew or for starters (and it's easier to control; i.e., stop sparging at the right point).

Between 15 and 17 gravity points should come from the table sugar and the rest from the malt, regardless of the actual percentages (i.e., the gravity without the sugar should be around 1.074). Different proportions will yield different final gravities. This proportion gets me the closest to the desired FG (~1.013 down from ~1.090), with this mash schedule.

Sugar: The dark sugar I use is made from the reaction of glucose with a specific amino-acid combination at high temperature and controlled pH. It is made in very small but super concentrated batches to avoid over-pyrolising the sugars. Colour is approximate. One could use a part dark candi syrup and a part sucrose (matching the colour) to get similar results.

Fermentation & conditioning: Pitching rate is possibly between 0.5 Mc/ml/°P and 0.75 Mc/ml/°P but not sure exactly (I've established it empirically based on how I grow my yeast, and I know that this yeast can take it, but other yeasts produce bad alcohols at this same pitching rate). Pitched between 18°C and 20°C in a well oxygenated wort. It is allowed to rise to up to ~21°C in the first 24 hours and up to ~24°C in the next 24 hours. After that it can rise up to 28°C with no problem. It is held at peak temperature for a few days until primary fermentation is almost complete. Then it is cooled down slowly for a couple of days and transferred to secondary and conditioned cool for ~6 weeks.
Then it is bottled with fresh yeast and conditioned warm for the first couple of weeks. Ready to drink after a few weeks in the bottle.
