Notes

Wheat beer fermenting at warm India temperatures. Hint of mango flavour for an India touch.

MASH:
Wheat malt 1.1kg
Pilsner malt 0.9kg

  1. Intially heat 6L of water to strike temp of 72C, then add all the malt.
  2. Mash for 60 minutes stirring every 10 min, maintaining 64-68C throughout.
  3. Mash out at 75C after 1 hour and turn off heat.

    SPARGE:
  4. Sparge slowly with 7L of 75C water, to get total 13L volume.
  5. Reheat the resultant 13L wort up to 75C. Then use entire 13L to sparge again, and fully extract all fermentable sugars.

    BOIL:
    Boil for 60 minutes.
  6. Add 5g hops at start of boil (immediately after hot break)
  7. Add 2.5g hops at 30 mins
  8. Add 10g chopped ripe mango peel at 55 mins
  9. Add 2.5g hops at 60 mins (immediately after heat turned off)
  10. Top up volume to 9L if boil was aggressive and volume comes up short.

    TRANSFER TO FERMENTER:
  11. Rapidly cool wort to 22C using a copper immersion chiller and recirculating water from an ice bath.
  12. Sieve wort through a fine mesh sieve as you transfer to fermenter. Pour from a height to aerate the wort as it enters the fermenter.

    PITCHING:
  13. Pitch 10g of dry yeast into fermenter, uniformly on the surface area of the wort.
  14. Shake fermenter vigourously to disperse yeast and further aerate the wort.

    FERMENTING:
  15. Ferment for 8 days at 25-27C. Gently shake fermenter every two days to rouse yeast settled in the trub.
  16. For first two days, use a blow off tube with exit placed in a bowl of sanitizer solution.
  17. After initial vigorous fermentation has subsided, remove blow off tube and replace with sanitizer-filled airlock.

    BOTTLING:
  18. Sterilize your priming honey by heating or with UV light.
  19. Add 100g of sterilized priming honey into large priming vessel.
  20. Using racking cane, tubing and autosiphon, rack the beer into priming vessel. Avoid siphoning out any krausen as well as trub.
  21. Employing gentle stirring to prevent aeration, fully dissolve the honey into the beer.
  22. Siphon primed beer into airtight glass/plastic bottles that can withstand beer carbonation pressures.

    Enjoy after 8 days bottle conditioning.

    Brew day sanitization:
  23. Thermometer
  24. Sieve
  25. Fermenter
  26. Blow off tube

    Bottle day sanitization:
  27. Large priming vessel
  28. Racking cane
  29. Tubing
  30. Autosiphon
  31. Bottles
