Notes: Water filtered through a carbon 5 micron filter numerous times. Starting pH 6.89

3g Calcium Chloride Anhydrous added to aid amylase in starch conversion.

pH adjusted to 5.5 using (pool acid) HCl.

Carscade hops home grown in Mount Macedon Vic Australia.

SG 1044 or 1042 Tilt and or Hydrometer.

I am trying to make a pale beer in the style of Corona with a well balanced but obvious new world American hop flavor. Not lawnmower beer more like beer you might have on the beach after a good surf watching the sun go down. ABV 4.5 IBU 22

Starter temp should be 25C for about 4 hours to get a better lift off

I used Wheatbix a supermarket cereal for the wheat component.

Notes: 1) New Kegco 6 gallon - Started with 5 gallons of spring water and added minerals. Mash landed at 151 after putting in the bag from a strike temp of 158. The mash then fell to 147 towards then end. Had some issues with the thermometer (digital) so I'll be replacing it with a dial thermometer.

PH - 5.4

2) Boil was uneventful, hopped as planned, immersion chilled to 160 to hopstand. After 30 mins, continued chilling and transferred 3 gallons to my fermenter.

OG - 1.060 - missed by a lot. Maybe just the new equipment, too much starting water, or temp issues. Pretty sure because i started with too much water, so I now I have a better idea of boil off. I lowered my efficiency in the recipe to reflect.

3) Put in temp controlled chamber and stabilized at 67 before aerating for 30 mins and pitching sanitized yeast packet. 48 hours in and fermentation is going strong.

4) Fermentation slowing at 4 days in, added first dry hop charge and pulled a sample. I get lots of awesome fruit flavors and a little bit of alcohol/yeast flavor with should clear up after full attenuation. Really looking forward to this one.

Gravity: 1.010 - lower than expected even with updating to show starting efficiency.

5) Transferred to Keg at 7 days, over 2nd dry-hop, and finished fermentation under pressure at 10psi.

6) At 10 days, I force carbonated at 30 psi for about 12 hours, then lowered to serving pressure for about a week.

7) Overall, the beer is decent but definitely very thin considering the low starting gravity. I also finished very low at 1.008. Another issue I've consistently noticed is that, despite using different hops, my beers all taste really similar. I think this may be yeast temp and I'm getting a lot of the fruity esters overtaking my hops. Next time I'll try a lower ferm temp.

Notes: The second German Smoked malt (10 oz) is actually Oak-smoked Wheat Malt. This brings the total wheat malt to 50% of the grist, and the total smoked malt to 50%, also (33.3% rauch malt and 16.7% smoked wheat malt).

Bring to 10 min boil after mashing, adding whirlfloc at 10 min. Then cool to 95-100°F, pre-acidify to 4.5 pH using Lactic acid, and then Kettle sour with one Goodbelly shot for 24 hours - pH dropped to 3.2. Then bring to a boil to kill off lacto, and add 60 min hops (any noble will work). Chill, then pitch yeast (Kolsch strain or German Ale would work well). Carbonate high.

Won third place in 2018 Cactus Challenge, Historical, Alternative, Speciality Beer category.

Notes: The original Recipe calls for 4.75lb's of each malt however I upped it to 5lb's each since it'll be cheaper at my LHBS. A bit more ABV but that's never a bad thing.

4/15/19 10ml of Lemonade concentrate added to a pint is the equivalent of one 12oz can of lemonade concentrate for 5 gallons. Going to try it when making a wheat ale.
