Notes: Extract Kit for a kettle sour base. Style aligns with Berliner Weisse but is too high alcohol to be naturally considered one. Great base for kettle sours brewed to be fruited/spiced later.

Step 1: Add 3 gallons of Non-chlorinated water to kettle. Bring heat of water to 165F. At 165, add muslin bag full of steeping grains to water and shut off heat.

Step 2: Allow steeping bag to diffuse for 30 minutes, bobbing gently. After 30 minutes has passed, discard steeping grains and muslin bag. Remove kettle from burner.

Step 3: Stir in malt extracts. Be sure to fully diffuse malt extract into wort, otherwise scorching may occur when heat is reapplied. Once malt extract is fully dissolved, return kettle to burner.

Step 4: Reapply heat to kettle, bringing kettle to rolling boil.

NOTE: this is where the recipe will deviate from standard extract recipes. Please be aware of changes to methodology.

Step 5: Boil wort for 15 minutes. DO NOT add any hops.

Step 6: After 15 minutes has passed, cut heat to kettle and cool to 100F. Leave wort in kettle, do not transfer to fermenter.

(Optional, Recommended): Pre-acidify wort to 4.5pH. Can be done using small amounts of lactic or phosphoric acid sold at local homebrew store. Can use pH meter or strips, meter recommended.
(Optional, Recommended): Purge oxygen out of wort by running CO2 from CO2 tank through wort for a couple minutes. Prevents unwanted microbes from growing.

Step 7: Add vial of Lactobacillus or shot of GoodBelly probiotics to wort. Place lid on kettle & wrap kettle around lid with kitchen stretch-wrap to create air-tight seal in kettle.

Step 8: Allow kettle to sit in warm area of house for 48 to 72 hours. (Optional, Recommended: check pH of wort with pH meter or strips. pH should get to ~3.5pH)

Step 9: Once 48-72 hours has passed, remove stretch wrap and lid from kettle (wort will smell very funky, may show pellicle). Return kettle to burner. Heat back to boil.

Step 10: Once boil has begun, allow 15 minutes to pass. Once 15 minutes has passed, 1oz of Tettnanger (or whichever hop/hop amounts desired).

Step 11: Allow boil to continue for 55 minutes. With 5 minutes remaining, add tsp of Irish Moss (optional). Once boil has ran for a total of 75 minutes, shut off heat.

Step 12: Cool wort to 80F using ice-bath or wort chiller. Add non-chlorinated cold water to hit 5 gallons of post-boil volume (can be done before chilling if your kettle is large enough.

All lactobacillus has been boiled off; the wort is now safe to go into your fermenter.

(Optional, Recommended): Steal small sample of wort to check gravity using hydrometer.

Step 13: Transfer to fermenter, aerate by splashing wort or carefully shaking fermenter.

Allow to ferment as normal, bottle when beer hits final gravity.

I kegged this Tuesday 419 from hot with no gelatin. Next day it was pouring with floaters so Wednesday 420 i transferred out of keg and made a make shift filter although not much seemed to get caught I wonder if the floaters were just a few in the first pour. Anyway rekegged it it was 1005 and shook the keg to carb and went on to can. Not sure the carb level but it was on the light side. Also added the rose water extract but have no good idea how much. I did one drop per 16 oz sample so in the end I added 35 drops to a measuring cup but it was immeasurable in the cup and the scale said 0g. So need to figure that out. The cans came out nice tho the rose water could be turned up slightly for experimentation purpose and carb level as well.

===================================

brew day was a little strange as i brewed this straight up without the fruit then brewed another batch several days later, combining the two then separating them again into separate fermenters, one for plain and the other one for this version with the fruit which i added 7 days ago.

pretty slow fermentation on this and the other one, as of today this is at 1.012 (the other one is higher, about 1.020). i will say it i believe i measured it at 1.015 yesterday so maybe improving

tonight i opened up the fermenter and it does appear to have some active fermentation still going, not sure why this lutra is so slow....obviously it could be because of the fruit but the other fermenter without the fruit is also slow and even slower without the fruit so idk.

anyway i was getting worried about that fruit being at 80 degrees in there so i transferred and filtered the seltzer into a clean fermenter, left a lot of the trub and fruit remains behind, added a couple more spoonfuls of lutra yeast, and two tsp of yeast nutrient which i believe is DAP. oxygenated by pouring back and forth and stirring. ive read seltzer is less susceptible to damage due to oxidation.

on another note it tastes really good. you can tell there is residual sweetness there and its not complex at all, its straight up sugar sweetness. but light and mixed with the fruit flavor its nice. id almost like to stop it like this and package. but in the interest of understanding seltzer i want to try to give it the best chance to ferment all the way out properly then see how that tastes.

i also added a couple drops of rose water extract to 4oz sampler and it tasted really good, a little strong on the nose. im thinking we probably want to start with 1 drop per 16oz can and go from there. not sure how to measure that over the course of the entire batch/keg....

...that would be approx 35-40 drops into the keg not sure if i want to measure it that way or figure something else out. maybe measure 35-40 drops into a measuring cup and see how much that is so next time you can just go from that. andor should measure the 35-40 drops and weight that junk too so next time you can go by weight.

initial recipe creation. sounds pretty straightforward, need to figure out how much rose water and extract to add. may want to add rose water at packaging time then do the flavorings at pour time for experimental purposes.
