Notes: 1. Mash grains with 4.5L at 67-70 degrees for 70 minutes
2. On the side, boil 2L of tap water and add Pale and Wheat LME late additions to sterilise (Dry Extract can be substituted). Put in cold water bath to cool.
3. Drain mash into boiler and sparge grains with 80degrees water up to 9L in boiler
4. Boil for 70 min, and then add remaining 500g of wheat LME + top boiler back up with kettle boiled water before first hop addition (total boil time = 80min)
5. After last hop addition, sit in cold water bath for 30 minutes, replacing water once after 15min
6. Top up with chilled distilled water to make 19L. Pitch yeast at 18deg and ferment at this temperature.
NOTE: Most NEIPA's suggest Wyeast London III however the brewshop had none so I used Mangrove Jacks M42 New World Strong Ale powdered yeast and re-hydrated in water+tsp of Dextrose prior to pitch
7. Add first dry hop just after primary fermentation kicks in
8. After primary fermentation settles (est. 5 days) step temp up 20 degrees for 2/3 days to initiate Diacetyl rest
9. Rack into secondary and add second dry hop addition, remove hops after 4-5 days and bottle any at this point.
NOTE: I used my serving keg as the secondary but I cut a small piece off the dip tube to prevent sediment come into the glass
10. For kegging, cold crash (put my fridge setting to "coldest"), transfer to keg, and set desired carbonation level and leave for 1 week.
This beer FG came out at 1.011 which took it to 5.5%ABV
Photos show 2 days after gassing (carbonation yet to fully absorb). Not quite as milkshake-like as typical NEIPA but this was a partial mash which is understandable.
Aroma: Pronounced waft of passion, mangos, oranges
Taste: No bitterness or resin (suited to NEIPA style) and very forward on tangerine/apricot/nectarine. Good sweetness and creamy texture to balance making this taste like the liquid left after tinned fruit salad. DELICIOUS! |

Notes: Ferment for 2 weeks in a primary and 2 weeks in Secondary w/Agave Nectar. Agave Nectar was Worted w/2 Qrts of water as a 1to1 ratio, cooled over ice bath then pitched in the secondary. MAKE SURE YOU SANITIZE. This recipe gets close to the same flavor as Corona w/shot of Patron. (I still added a shot of Patron though.) Forget the Agave Nectar and you will have a Great Kegged Corona Clone Just dont use a secondary, go 4 weeks in the primary. Great beer for the keg.
Use pure Oxy to airate for 20 Sec. |

Notes: First... I don't understand why the formula gives these specific gravities... my OG lands at 1.067/68 and FG at 1.008/06.
The Rolled Oats consist of toasted Quaker Oatmeal(laid out in toaster oven until heavily toasted).
Grains are put into bag in a 5 gallon water cooler, covered with about 2.5 gallons of water at 149 degrees. After 30 minutes check water... add and stir enough 185 degree water to bring temp up to 148 for about 30 to 40 minutes. Total mash time of appx 1 hour. Sparge with 185-190 degree water to make about 3.5 gallon wort.
For me this wort has a SG of 1.022 at 60 degrees.
Add DME. After hot break start adding hops.
Boil 1 hour...Add brown sugar and honey during last 15 minutes of boil.
To cool, I set my 30 quart aluminum brewpot into an ice bath. I use a large plastic tote with 4, 10 lb bags of ice and water. With regular stirring of the wort, this usually cools it from around 190 down to 80 degrees within 40 minutes.
I keep 2 gallons of water in the freezer for about 20 minutes. I pour my chilled wort into the fermenter and then add the 2 gallons to make about 5.5 gallons.
Re-hydrate 2 packs of Nottingham dry yeast, pitch and ferment at 65 to 70 degrees for 7 to 10 days.
Rack to secondary for 5-7 days.
Bottle and condition for at least 10-15 days.
Bottle condition with 4 oz. of cane sugar for a minimum of 10 to 15 days. A 60 day conditioning is recommended.
Enjoy!
Now... the reason I call this beer a "specialty beer" is because of the feel and after taste. I believe that because of the low mash temperature and "neutral" flavor of the Nottingham yeast, this beer has a hard time fitting into the stout category... it's just too dry, light and crisp tasting to be a stout or porter. I waited until my 2nd brewing and finishing before publishing this recipe. If anyone wants to give it a try and then offer any advice or criticism I'd love to hear it. |

this recipe uses up a lot of odds and ends
On tasting this is a fantastic well balanced beer with interesting hop notes. I will definitely brew this again soon and to think I just made it up to use up my odds and ends |
