Cluster Fugget Barleywine

Use reiterated mash technique to get high gravity wort from small kettle limitation. Divide 14 lb total grain in half, BIAB mash 7 lb in first volume of water, sparge with water (then save these second runnings to sparge the second mash runnings with), then drain. Empty grain from bag and then mash second 7 lb in wort from first mash (wort volume listed above under mash guidelines is amount left after grain absorption from first mash, not additional volume of water added). Then sparge this grain in first sparge runnings to get to preboil gravity (will dilute SG some, but I need the extra volume to reach preboil volume. Can add DME if need to get preboil SG higher). Then combine sparge runnings with concentrated first runnings in bigger kettle to boil.

Yeast I’m using is actually Opshaug Kveik (dried) from Mainiacal Yeast not in database, but similar to a Hornindal. Says it’s relatively clean, with notes of citrus and stone fruit. Tolerant to 12% abv.
