not too hoppy but can pay attention to some higher notes
deep amberish, with a nice head foam.

Notes: 480 oz of apple juice
Added .9 lb of Turbinado.
Made a 2 step starter of WLP001
Brought apple juice to build and mixed in honey, brown sugar, and turbinado.
Original Instructions
This brew is an iteration of a few ciders using different grain bills (juice to honey ratios) with various yeasts.
Notes:
5lbs = 5 Gal. Apple Juice (if this is your first cider, use organic juice without potassium sorbate; it will kill the yeast and not ferment). Don't think I used maltodextrin here.
The rest of the grain bill is accurate. If a little less kick is needed, try one of the alternates below. I'm using WLP001 this time because of its tolerance for high alcohol, higher fermenting temp and because it finishes sweater (personally I prefer the dryness of the EC-1118 but then it's closer to Cyser territory).
I'm thinking ABV should be close to 10%. Also, because OG will be relatively high I'm using a starter. One could also double pitch with decent results. I've pitched one yeast pack before and still not had any problems.
Basic steps: Boil 2 gal. apple juice and add honey stirring constantly. (Honey is heavy and will sink to the bottom. It burns easily like candi syrup.) Boil juice, honey and sugar together for at least 20 minutes. Combine wort with remaining juice once temps drop to pitching levels.
HISTORIC
YEAST / OG / FG

EC-1118 / 1.087 / 1.011 -6 gal. juice to 6 lbs honey (2 gal. split)

Notes: Trying for a witbier, which from what I've read is not what I'm going to get. But this is a first try, my 3rd ever extract brew and it should still be nice.
Will be too dark and could benefit from oat additions. |

| Notes: Quick boil DME Brett beer (maltodextrin gives the Brett something to chew on over the months, and cane sugar encourages lower pH drop from the Lachancea, but can make with 100% DME, or mash some grain if you'd rather party like that). Pitch Philly Sour first, give it 2-3 days to get started dropping the pH, then pitch the Brett. Wait until Brett finishes up (3-4 months) before dry hopping, then package. |

Notes: One 11.5 gram packet of US-05 was used for this brew, and an apparent attenuation of 82% was achieved. The yeast was rehydrated in the wort, per the manufacturer's instructions.
A second packet of US-05 or a yeast starter would have achieved greater attenuation, but this particular brew benefits from a subtle sweetness.
No off flavors were present in the finished product.
Beer was bottled at approximately 70°F/21°C using 5 oz. of dextrose to achieve approximately 2.5 vols of carbonation. |
