Notes: An attempt at a Timbo Pils kind of beer brewed at Highland Park Brewery in LA. Pseudo lager style as well, a split batch at ambient temp 55-65 degrees(LA winter) and 95 degrees, both with Lutra Kveik yeast.

Notes: Last year (2017) I used 40% Vienna and it was tasty. This year (2018) I might go with 25% Munich which will be about the same color and we'll see how the flavor profile turns out.

2018-8-2 tweaked the recipe a bit to match Helles Exportbier for a 2fer.

2019: pils + ~30% munich

2022: 15% munich; going a bit lighter with the munich
72g split between saphir and tettnang turns this into a pilsner! not a bad thing, but altering the recipe to 2g/L instead of 3 and changed to Mittelfruh. also changed munich back to ~30%

2024: did about 12% munich and was more of a pils still. planning on some test batches with 20% munich plus some late hops to get a more malty and hoppy end result and still be helles-like.

Notes: This came out awesome; has received rave reviews.

Original source is here: http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/300542/2016-pumpkin-ale.

Differences are:
1) Mine was a BIAB.
2) No mash out; just mashed in at 156 Deg (grains dropped temp by about 3 deg.)
3) I didn't adjust the water profile (I used Deer Park Spring Water.)
4) I scaled it down to a batch size of 4.0 gallons.
5) Higher fermentation temp.

Notes: Shooting for about 6 gallons in boil. I haven't gotten my water mash/boil quantities dialed in...still kind of guessing.

Soak zest of 3 Grapefruits in vodka, in the freezer until secondary (all goes in).

Hibiscus flowers go in 1/2 gallon boiling water and steep 10 to 15 minutes. Strain and chill in sanitized container until ready to use.

Guessing on priming...will check temperature and volume, and adjust when ready. (And go on the low side, as per my usual issue with over-carbing.)

Notes: Rye Wit Recipe from basic brewing radio. It is a low gravity beer just coming in at 2.1% ABV. James' recipe is for 4.5 gal,
scaled to 2.5

I am really excited about this beer. It turned out fantastic. For a 2% beer or compared to any percent beer it is dynamic.

It is extremely well balanced. The Dry hop used, Australian Summer, goes perfectly with the style. It has a clean palate with a spicy zing that fades quickly with a faint flower taste. I do not like a harsh and biting hop presence. It is not a hoppy beer, but would appeal to those who like the bittering character of an appropriately hopped beer. It is not thin or watery. The mouth feel is full and coating, presenting as a much bigger beer.

The next time I brew this I am going to experiment with another dry hop ( australian galaxy) just to see what difference would be.

Notes: Yeast slurry 200ml from 2nd February (5 weeks old).
Make 700ml starter.
Brewed 14 March 2015. Strong sulphur smell first few days of fermentation.
Bottled 29 March.
First taste 4 weeks - nice light Saison with some of the Pilsner flavours coming through, slight pepper + spice, very light Lychee at the end. Great bead and fluffy head.
7 week tasting - this has developed into a true Saison for me - it is quite light in flavours but leaves you wanting more - all the flavours have melded beautifully.

Notes: Recipe changes:
Maris Otter subbed for American 2-row
Columbus used for bittering instead of Magnum
Galaxy used in the whirlpool instead of Cascade
WY1318 used instead of Chico yeast.

Friday 8th January 2016 - 1.6 L starter onto stirplate. WY1318 captured from blow off of last batch (6th generation).

Sunday 10th January 2016 - Added starter to keezer to settle yeast (decanted off 0.5 L for future use).

Sunday 10th January 2016 - Brewday. Heated 29L strike water to 69oC. Mashed in at 15:50. Mash temp = 64.5oC. Aiming for mash pH of 5.4 (adjusted with gypsum, CaCl2 and 80% lactic acid). Added 2/3 of lactic acid before mashing in.

Calibrated pH meter (had drifted by +0.06). Tap water pH = 7.75.

15 mins. Stirred the mash. Mash temp = 63.8oC. Mash pH = 5.45.

30 mins. Stirred the mash. Mash temp = 63oC. Mash pH = 5.40.

45 mins. Stirred the mash. Mash temp = 62.2oC. Turned on the induction plate. Mash pH = 5.41.

60 mins. Stirred the mash. Mash temp 63.7oC. pH = 5.40.

"Sparged" by pouring 4L of 55oC water (no water adjustment) over the grain bag whilst it drained and squeezing the bag.

Approx 28.5L of wort collected from the mash. Preboil gravity = 1.052.

Whirlpool 1. Cooled wort to 80oC and transferred 13L to a sanitised plastic bucket. Added hops to the kettle at 77oC. 69oC after 10 mins. 63oC after 30 mins. Stirred every 5-10 mins.

Whirlpool 2. Chilled in bucket to 51oC and added hops at 49oC. After 15 mins = 45oC. Stirred every 5-10 mins.

Chilled both batches using immersion chiller to about 30oC and then transferred to PET carboys. Left outside at -2oC (covered with foil) to reach pitching temp. Split the starter between each carboy (pitched at 18oC).

OG = 1.058. Post boil pH = 5.3. Each batch approx 12L.

Saturday 16th January (Day 7) - Crash chilled in fermentation fridge at -1oC. Ferm temp has been low on this one as fridge was busy with a lager so these beers were fermented at an ambient 15oC in our basement storage room.

Sunday 17th January 2017 (Day 8) - Kegged with gelatine (carboy to liquid outpost siphon into oxygen purged kegs). FG = 1.016. ABV = 5.5%.

Notes: WYEAST 3522-Belgian Ardennes

*** start ferment at 20 for a day or two, then slowly let it rise use ~ 1 degrees per day until it hits 28 is optimum. Let it sit on the yeast cake for 1 mth

Let it condition for 1 mth for optimal results

Goal is to get this to drop down to ~ FG 1007-1010 ~ 90% attenuation

*** CHECK DATE ON YEAST PACK AND CALCULATE STARTER
