Notes: Notes:
1. M05 yeast pitch rate at least 0,5g/L - don't worry about overpitching 1-2g/L, neither 10-times more yeast will ruin your mead
2. yeast nutrient = 0,25-0,3g/L Vitamon cerevisiae (in case of M05 yeast) in 5 additions
3. first nutrient addition before pitching yeast
4. second nutrient addition after 24 hours
5. third nutrient addition after 48 hours
6. fourth nutrient addition after 72 hours
7. last nutrient addition after 5 days if fermentation slows down
8. be careful of adding nutrient: shake or sweep patiently the carboy before to exhaust CO2, nutrient can do CO2 fountain; exhausting CO2 to day 5 improves yeast condition and work
9. reading after 3 days: SG 1.045, temperature 22°C; reading after 5 days: SG 1.032, temperature 21°C, after 7 days SG 1.021, after 10 days SG 1.010; after 14 days FG 1.006 - fermentation stopped
10. transfer your mead to sanitized carboy and add 0,25g/L=1,2g potassium sorbate to prevent further fermentation then add 100g same pasteurized honey for backsweetening and wait for 2 days
11. make sure that fermentation doesn't start again then do cold crash for 2-3 days to clear your mead
12. bottle and let aging at least 3 weeks at room temperature or ideally few months at 10°C
fermentation length 14 days + 2 days for confirmation
FG rises to 1.014 after honey backsweetening, alcohol lowers approx. 0,2%
flavor: very sweet with tones of grapefruit

Poznámky:
1. očkovací dávka kvasnic M05 se při této hustotě doporučuje aspoň 0,5g/L - neboj se ale předávkování 1-2g/L, ani 10-násobek tvou medovinu nepoškodí
2. výživa kvasnic = 0,25-0,3g/L Vitamon cerevisiae (v případě kvasnic M05) v 5 dávkách
3. první dávka výživy ještě před zakvašením
4. druhá dávka 24 hodin po zakvašení
5. třetí dávka po 48 hodinách od zakvašení
6. čtvrtá dávka po 3 dnech od zakvašení
7. poslední dávka výživy po 5 dnech, pokud kvašení zpomalí
8. buď opatrný, když přidáváš kvasnice, radši předtím nech mícháním uniknout CO2, jinak hrozí, že po přidání výživy medovina vypění; uvolňováním CO2 se zároveň zlepšuje kondice kvasnic a kvalita kvašení, provádíme do 5. dne
9. po 3 dnech hustota 1.045, kvašení při teplotě 22°C; po 5 dnech hustota 1.032, teplota 21°C, po 7 dnech hustota 1.021, po 10 dnech 1.010, po 14 dnech 1.006 - fermentace se zastavila
10. přelij medovinu do sanitovaného demižonu a přidej 0,25g/L=1,2g sorbanu draselného k zamezení další fermentace; pak přidej 100g téhož pasterizovaného medu k doslazení a počkej 2 dny
11. ujisti se, že medovina nezačala znovu kvasit, pak zchlaď na 2-3°C a ponech tak aspoň další dva dny, až se medovina vyčistí
12. nalahvuj medovinu a nech zrát aspoň 3 týdny v pokojové teplotě nebo ideálně pár měsíců v 10°C
doba kvašení 14 dnů + 2 dny na potvrzení
100g doslazovacího medu rozpuštěného ve 100ml vody zvedne hustotu na 1.014, alkohol se sníží o cca 0,2%
chuť: velmi sladká s nádechem grepu

Notes: This Belgian Blonde tastes as if it were brewed by an all-grain method.
Extract brewing can be simple and rewarding! Note that while the equipment costs far less than the equivalent all-grain systems, the cost to let someone else create your extract over extracting the sugars from grains yourself is more expensive by about 20-50%. The cost per 20oz (one bottle) of beer for this Belgian Blonde is $1.94. The cost per 20oz beer, with all equipment in this description, is $5.67 at a total cost of $181.50 (tax not included).
*The bottles are on Amazon. Search Plastic Beer Bottles.
*You may use tap water and/or modify the water profile.
Additional costs include:
$24.57 An inexpensive Amazon stainless kettle from India
$26.97 A 6.5 Gallon Bottling & Siphonless Fermentation Bucket from Northern Brewer with the Spigot: Fermenter's Favorites Bottling Spigot for Bottling Bucket and with the Lid: Grommeted Lid (Drilled)
$8.99 20ft 3/8" ID Siphon Hose
$4.99 Fermenter's Favorites® Spring Tip Bottle Filler
$16.00 Five Star - Star San - 16 Ounce - Brew Sanitizer High Foaming Acid Anionic
For a fermentation airlock, run a section of the 3/8" ID Siphon Hose from the grommet on the lid to the bottom of one of the gallon jugs filled with sanitizer solution in tap water, and place the gallon jug and the fermentation bucket at the same height. It is best to elevate the beer at the beginning of the fermentation cycle with the spiggot facing the area where you will be bottling so that the trub is not disturbed during the bottling process. In other words, try not to move the bucket just before bottling. Primary fermentation ambient temperature is about 68f. Allow the yeast to ferment up to whatever temperature it prefers.
To bottle your beer, precondition each sanitized 16oz bottle with 1 Northern Brewer Fizz Drop. Attach a 5-8 foot section of the 3/8" ID Siphon Hose to the Fermenter's Favorites Bottling Spigot and the other end of the hose to the Fermenter's Favorites® Spring Tip Bottle Filler. Slowly open the spigot until it is fully open. Place the spring tip filler into the bottle and press the tip in on the bottom of the bottle. Fill the bottle until the liquid reaches the top. Remove the filler and the bottle will be filled to the optimal height.
Secondary fermentation in bottles takes between 14 and 21 days. 17.5 is usually a safe number of days to allow carbonation to build.
Don't forget to sanitize everything including the outside rims of the brew equipment and even the outside of the yeast packet.
"Superior phenolics, poor flocculation
2 years ago
Given that I am the person who originally cultivated this yeast from van Steenberge Gulden Draak and gave it to Chris White in about 1996, I am prejudiced.
This is my "go to" Belgian yeast with lovely phenolics and does not produce hardly any banana when fermented very warm. When I was propagating it, it was a much poorer flocculator than after Chris cleaned it up. It is still not a very good flocculator. However, it produces a lovely aromatic character and clovey phenolic taste with much spicy complexity. It is not exceptionally tolerant of high gravity wort, so if you plan on making a beer with an OG of over 1.080, you need to grow it up in a couple of batches of beer first. I have successfully fermented a 1.122 wort down to 1.024, but only with a huge amount of yeast slurry from two previous batches. Belgian Golden Strong made with this yeast was awarded a Gold in 2001 and 2002 in NHC First Round and a Silver at NHC final round in 2002. And, a Belgian Dark Strong brewed that same year, continued to get better with age for the next 12 years, but sadly is all gone.
I LOVE THIS YEAST!!!!!!" - DION · Reviewed on morebeer.com |

Notes: Create a yeast starter with 1 C. orange juice, 1 tspn Yeast Nutrient, and Yeast in a mason jar. Let sit for 3-5 hours before brewing.
Crash the brew with 1/2 tspn per gallon of Potassium Sorbate after 7-10 days in fermentation, around when the OG reaches 1.020. Then, let sit for the rest of a full month to absorb the spices before racking to secondary. You can also pitch the spices in secondary instead, and rack immediately to secondary at 7 days.
On secondary, boil the the extra sugars for 15 minutes in a liter of water in a small sauce pot, siphoning off any nastiness. Pitch in, and give the mead a gentle stir for 30 seconds. This must be done *after* the Potassium Sorbate has been pitched and integrated well to crash the fermentation.
Be sparring with the orange juice. It tends to overwhelm the subtlety of the spices if too much is used, even by a half-cup. It adds a necessary acidic-sweetness to the mead to blend out the stark dryness of the spices against the earthy sweetness of the mead.
I tend to use a forest honey for a more mature vegetable sweetness, but summer bloom or clover works just as well.
Let sit on Secondary for 2-3 months. Continue to rack to desired clarity. Best if brewed in December and given at least 2 months to rest in a bottle. |

Notes: Steep to convert the grains at 150 degrees for 45 minutes in 5 qts of water.
- for every 2 lbs of grain, use 1 gallon of water. 12oz + 12oz + 6oz + 6oz (2.25 lbs) = 5 qts.
Sparge with 1/2 gallon water (150 degrees)
Add enough water to bring wort volume to 2.5 gallons
Add late addition fermentables (Wheat DME and Candi Syrup) at 45 minutes into 60 minute boil time (ie, 15 minutes) |
