| Notes: Wanted to brew a belgianish sort of beer with my wild yeast. The cascade hops (I know, not Belgian) were from my yard and I 'aged' them by baking at 170F for something like 10 hours. |

Notes: Ale to test test new Hops!
Boil Light Dry Malt in a couple of liters of water, add the hops give (start tentatively with 10 grams) boil for 15 minutes.
Add more hops (this time 15 grams) and remove the pan from the heat, let it soak for about 30 minutes with the lid on. Strain it then down into your fermenter, mix in the beer kit and make up to 20 liters. (ABV around 4.4%) |

Notes: !!!>USE GOLD LME< >DO NOT USE PILSEN<!!!!
THE GOLD LME WAS NOT AN OPTION ABOVE! THE GOLD LME OPTION WAS NOT AN OPTION ABOVE SO I PUT 9.15 lbs of Pilsen LME. When I tried to add GOLD LME it did not calculate correctly. Pilsen would work BUT GOLD LME IS THE CORRECT LME, NOT PILSEN! PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT IF YOU USE PILSEN YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE SAME TASTE AS TWO HEARTED IPA! I APOLOGIZE BUT GOLD LME IS NOT AN OPTION ABOVE. PLEASE USE GOLD LME! A starter is advised! 2 stage fermentation is a must. Expect aggressive yeast activity within 48 hours. An airlock will NOT handle this. You will need a blow off! 1056 is a super active yeast. It will blow the top off of a bucket or blow up a carboy, no joke. US Safale 05 is a great dry yeast option if you don't have a blow off. Thank you and enjoy your beer my fellow HOP HEADS! Oh, feel free to use 2 ounces of Centennial hops, instead of one, when dry hopping. This would be dry hopping at 2nd fermentation. Also, depending on how hoppy you want it, you could put the hops in for the whole 10-14 days during the second fermentation, 1 or 2 ounces. Or, for less hoppiness, add 1 ounce a week into the second fermentation and just allow to dry hop for a week. The choice is yours. Just depends on what you want and how aromatic and hoppy you want the final beverage. Enjoy. |

| Notes: Darker, red / amber color compared to standard Pils. Unusual bittering hop for a Pils. Actual yeast used was Wyeast 2252 (Rasenmaher Lager). The DME was actually 'Briess Ultra Light', but probably still 4L. I did nothing with the hard Indy water. Probably not even considered a Pils, just for the water alone! Hence the 'Old Bastage' name. I was too lazy to measure actual gravities, etc. Picture of glass of beer is after 22 days lagered. Beer developed better head and flavor after two more weeks in the bottle. This beer had a unique, complex flavor, It didn't last long once it was done lagering. |
