Notes: Simulate FWH by adding first hops to steeping grain. Steep in 4 gallons of water heated to 170 degrees for 30 mins with 1 pound of extract. Allow temperature to drift downward during steep. At the end of 30 mins, remove grain bag, dissolve extracts in water, top up to 7 gallons and boil. Steeping grain upped slightly to offset reduction in extraction due to sugar in the steeping water.
Pitch at 68 degrees. Ferment in water bath at ambient basement temps. |

Notes: What is a loquat? (https://www.splendidtable.org/story/david-karp-loquats)
Recommended to bring mash pH down to 4.0-4.3 (https://beerandbrewing.com/become-a-kettle-sour-expert/).
Steep grains for 20 minutes at 155. Bring temp to 170 and add in all of the DME. Heat for 15 minutes and then cool down to 120. Add 3 oz. of Omega OYL-605 Lactobacillus. I kept the last 1 oz in the fridge in case I needed it later. Maintain a temperature of 92 (+/- 2 degrees) (http://www.milkthefunk.com/wiki/Lactobacillus). Using a FermWrap FE650 for heating and an InkBird ITC-308 for controlling the temp.
After 72 hours, start the 30-min boil.
At day 3 of fermentation, I sanitized and cut up 6 lbs. of Loquat fruit. Discarded the pits. I put the fruit in 2 grain bags. I didn't use grain bags with my last sour and the amount of sediment was an issue on bottling day. I made sure to give the fermenter a little shake each day so that air wasn't trapped amongst the fruit. I've read that not doing so can cause some mold to start to grow.
2 days before kegging, I took out the fruit and squeezed as much liquid from them as I could. Kegged on day 30.
I'm happy with how this came out. I may have preferred closer to 8 - 10 lbs. of fruit, but loquats are a pain to de-seed. Tasted like a good sour with some fruit. Not like the new, over-juiced beers that are coming out. |
