Notes: I think I'll add cooked cherries to 2ndary then rack over them from primary.
For the roasted grains, I used 3 times the recipe weight above, and cold-steeped in water for 24 hrs using 1 gallon per 3 lbs of grain (just used 2 gal for this batch)
When doing this and on brew day go to the mash calc page and adjust the weight of the grain in the mash down to roasted grains taken out to get water volumes
--
Learned nibs primarily impart nose so doing 2oz cocoa powder in the boil at 15 min and 2 oz nibs. 2-4 nibs in the 2ndary with the cherries
Low mash temp which perplexes me since the numbers were on. Doing a 1.5G decoction 30 minutes in to the mash |

Notes:
Strike with 9 gallons at 160 to hit 147. Raise through Herms to 155 after 45 minutes. Verify Mash PH is 5.2. Adjust if necessary with lactic acid. Sparge with 11 gallons at 165-170
Safeale 04 (wyeast 007) fermented out three generations in. Yeast has a good clean ale flavor. Made a 2 liter starter two days before brew day 1-21-12.
Pitch yeast at 64 and hold for 3-4 days. Add 1vl for 2min of pure 02 prior to pitching. Raise to 70 degrees after a few days to clear diactyle. Yeast should be a dry english ale yeast or california ale yeast strain.
Sorachi Ace is dryhopped near the end of primary fermentation.

Notes: I found this recipe online (http://beersmithrecipes.com/viewrecipe/189/cherry-vanilla-stout) originally. I modified it to fit what my home brew shop had. I also replaced the DME with LME and it worked great. Strong cherry aroma, subtle cherry flavor and the vanilla is not noticeable. A week in primary, two weeks in secondary, cold crashed a week, and keg conditioned for a week.

Notes: We recommend a method similar to a Narziss fermentation, where the first two thirds of the fermentation is done cold and the final third is done warmer. This differs from the most commonly recommended procedure for lagers, where the yeast is pitched to a relatively warm wort (60 to 68°F, 15 to 20°C), cooled over the first two days of fermentation to the primary fermentation temperature, and then warmed back up to the initial temperature for a diacetyl rest before lagering. The idea behind the Narziss fermentation is to reduce the production of esters and other less desirable compounds during the most active phases of fermentation, and to increase the yeast activity near the end of fermentation, converting most of the undesirable compounds into less offensive substances. For example, diacetyl is a buttery tasting compound that is a common flaw in warm fermented lagers. The diacetyl precursor alpha acetolactate is excreted by the yeast during the early phase of fermentation. Keeping the temperature low during that time keeps the amount of alpha-acetolactate low. Yeast will reduce diacetyl at the end of fermentation, when they are working on building their energy stores. Warming the yeast near the end of fermentation makes them more active and improves the reduction of diacetyl. The overall effect is a cleaner beer.
Assuming you have clean, healthy yeast, controlling the temperature of fermentation is the most important step. The preferred procedure for these recipes is a little different, in that we recommend chilling the wort down to 44° F (7° C) and racking the beer away from the bulk of the cold break material before oxygenating and pitching the yeast. The fermentation chamber should be set up to warm slowly over the first 36 to 48 hours to 50° F (10° C) and held at that temperature for the rest of fermentation. This results in a clean lager, with very little diacetyl. If your wort was warmer during the initial yeast growth, or your fermentation was warmer, you’ll need to do a diacetyl rest during the last couple of days of fermentation, when the airlock activity noticeably slows. Generally this will be about the fifth or sixth day after pitching. To perform a diacetyl rest, warm your beer up about 10° F (6° C) above the fermentation temperature and hold it there until fermentation is complete. This keeps the yeast active and gives them a chance to eliminate the diacetyl. Then rack the beer to a 5 gallon carboy or Cornelius keg for lagering.
In any case, don’t rush things. Good lagers take time, and they ferment more slowly than ales, especially when fermented cold. Once the beer has finished fermenting, a period of lagering for a month or more at near freezing temperatures can improve the beer. Generally, the higher the alcohol content of the beer, the longer the lagering period should be. A 5 percent alcohol by volume Munich helles might be best after 4 to 6 weeks. An 8 percent doppelbock may need 6 months or more for some of the harsher aspects of the beer to mellow and for the melding of complex flavors to occur. |
