Place 21 l water into FV, add 1/3rd crushed camden tablet
Take out 1l of water and boil, Add
*1kg of white can sugar,
*1 kg Of Amber soft sugar. (eqautes to 2l)
stir throughly then add back to FV, volume 23l
Place a muslin bag over the top of the FV and leave over night (no need to drop pH of water as limes will acidify the water when added the following day)
07-04-2025 @0900
slice/ zest the skins of 25unwashed unwaxed limes and place in a pasterused muslin bag, do not wash the limes, as I want to utilise the yeast on the skins
remove/ slice off any remainder of the white of the limes and discard
quarter the limes then squeeze the limess in a macerator juicer with 1cm of ginger. throw away the fibre produced (it contributes to bitterness)
Add the 1l of lime juice to the FV
Add some * ginger plant into the muslin bag , then hang the muslin bag of lime zest/ ginger plant inside the FV and secure the string to the outside of the FV with tape
DID NOT ADD YEAST NUTRIENT NOR YEAST i.e. I added yeast for my lemonade last year i.e. 1.5 tsp of yeast nutrient, 0.5 tsp yeast nutrient, 1 tsp of wine yeast (can use champagne yeast)
07-04-2025 @ 1230 OG=1.030, vol 24l
Will take 2-3 days to get started
Should finish at 1.010 ??? (so can RACK AT above that so no need to add priming sugar, so chill, then rack, or no chill and catch it early

Notes: I found this recipe on Brewer's Friend and the notes below this paragraph are from that recipe. I could not get Magnesium Chloride at Midwest Supplies, so I am opting not to use any water modifications rather than just leaving one out. The malt I got was a smoked wheat malt from Weyermann and I got it from Matt. I went from 6.25 to 7 pounds for this recipe. I am using Safale K97 German Ale yeast again and only 0.5 pounds of rice hulls as 1.5 pounds was too much last time. I used 1 ounce of homegrown hops at around 5.5 AA (4.5 AA last time) rather than 1.5 ounce at 3.75 AA. IBUs went from 23.77 to 20.34. Saaz were 3.2 AA vs 3.5 and that dropped the IBUs from 1.83 to 1.61 for the 15 minute and from 0.16 to 0.14 for the 1 minute hop. Also, last batch the strike water was not enough, I started at 13 liters and had to add 6, so I am just starting with 19 liters this time.
Overall Impression:
A low-gravity, highly-carbonated, light-bodied ale combining an oak-smoked flavor with a clean hop bitterness. Highly sessionable.
Aroma:
Low to moderate oak wood smoke is the most prominent aroma component, but can be subtle and hard to detect. A low spicy, herbal, or floral hop aroma is typically present, and should be lower than or equal to the smoke in intensity. Hints of grainy wheat are also detected in the best examples. The aroma is otherwise clean, although light pome fruit esters (especially ripe red apple or pear) are welcome. No acidity. Slight water-derived sulfury notes may be present.
Appearance:
Pale yellow to medium gold in color with excellent clarity. A tall, billowy, white, tightly-knit head with excellent retention is distinctive. Murkiness is a fault.
Flavor:
Moderately-low to medium oak smoke flavor up front which carries into the finish; the smoke can be stronger in flavor than in aroma. The smoke character is gentle, should not be acrid, and can lend an impression of sweetness. A moderate to strong bitterness is readily evident which lingers through the finish. The overall balance is toward bitterness. Low but perceptible spicy, herbal, or floral hop flavor. Low grainy wheat character in the background. Light pome fruit esters (red apple or pear) may be present. Dry, crisp finish. No sourness.
Mouthfeel:
Light in body, with a crisp and dry finish. Carbonation is quite high and can add a slight carbonic bite or prickly sensation. No noticeable alcohol warmth.
Comments:
Pronounced in English as “pivo grow-JEES-kee-uh” (meaning: Grodzisk beer). Known as Grätzer (pronounced “GRATE-sir”) in German-speaking countries, and in some beer literature. Traditionally made using a multi-step mash, a long boil (~2 hours), and multiple strains of ale yeast. The beer is never filtered but Isinglass is used to clarify before bottle conditioning. Traditionally served in tall conical glassware to accommodate the vigorous foam stand.
History:
Developed as a unique style centuries ago in the Polish city of Grodzisk (known as Grätz when ruled by Prussia and Germany). Its fame and popularity rapidly extended to other parts of the world in the late 19th and early 20th century. Regular commercial production declined after WWII and ceased altogether in the early-mid 1990s. This style description describes the traditional version during its period of greatest popularity.
Characteristic Ingredients:
Grain bill usually consists entirely of oak-smoked wheat malt. Oak-smoked wheat malt has a different (and less intense) smoke character than German beechwood-smoked barley malt; it has a drier, crisper, leaner quality – a bacon/ham smoke flavor is inappropriate. Saazer-type hops (Polish, Czech or German), moderate hardness sulfate water, and a relatively clean and attenuative continental ale yeast fermented at moderate ale temperatures are traditional. German hefeweizen yeast or other strains with a phenol or strong ester character are inappropriate.
Style Comparison:
Similar in strength to a Berliner Weisse, but never sour. Has a smoked character but that character is less intense than in a Rauchbier.
Vital Statistics:
OG: 1.028 – 1.032
FG: 1.006 – 1.012
IBUs: 20 – 35
SRM: 3 – 6
ABV: 2.5 – 3.3%
