Notes: Black Viking Rose Seltzer Test Batch.
Brewed 3/24/2022
OG 1.047
FG 1.005
ABV 5.5%
On brew day started with 5 gal distilled water. Heat up 2 gals to 180 and added 1oz pack of White Labs Seltzer Max nutrient pack (link below). Combine that back with the other 3 gal and chill if needed down to 90 degrees, then pitch yeast. For this batch I used reused lutra yeast so yeast count is not precise, used about 3 spoonfuls worth of slurry.
At high krausen added the fruit, which was store bough frozen berries, thawed and blended in the blender into a puree.
Overall, fermentation went slower than expected, it took about two weeks before I called it done at 1.005. Normally seltzers should finish at 1.000 but I am assuming the fruit had some residual sugars/gravity causing it to not ferment all the way down. The high FG and slow ferm could also possibly be from a low pitch rate. Also some colleagues messaged saying it could possibly be caused by a pH imbalance (did not take any pH readings). Another colleague said to use more nutrient than recommended by White Labs.
The rose water extract (link below) is really strong and can come across as soapy if overdone. I tested drops in the glass off the tap and determined one drop per 16oz pour was about right. Added 30 drops to the keg before canning. I realize this is very imprecise especially for scaling. It registered as 0g on my scale and imperceivably small volume in my measuring cup.
Carbonation was also not measured well, just added co2 until it seemed right. I think standard for seltzer is between 2.8-3.0 volumes.

| Notes: I made this recipe. I had leftover wheat malt and Briess Chocolate Malt leftover from Brew and Grow that was vacuum sealed. I am going to use my homegrown hops. Regarding my hops and IBUs. According to Brewer's Friend, Tettnanger are 4.5% aa and Cascade are 7% aa. I adjusted it down to 6% aa for the Cascade. I decided to boil the cocoa nibs rather than adding during fermentation. Yeast was purchased for batch 94 and also used for batch 95 and 97. This was only farmed once for batch 94 and never harvested after brewing. My recipe with just the LME showed 3.6% ABV, so I added 3 pounds of wheat DME to increase it to 5.67%. I forgot to add the cocoa nibs at the beginning of the boil as the old recipe didn't have a time. Added them at 30 minutes. |

| Notes: This Pacifica hopped beer should turn out a lot like the Lemon Drop hopped beer. I'm hoping this will turn out darker (7 srm) and more bitter than the lemondrop ale. This brew will have more hops in it - 6.5oz |

| Notes: The Fuggles was a mistake, meant to be all Hallertau, but I didn't pay attention to what I pulled out of the fridge. Might be over-hopped for a bock, but just say it's been americanized. That said, I had originally named this Maibock, but now I'm changing it to AmiBock. Ein AmiBock, bitte! |

Notes: Heat 3 gallons to 150 degrees. Add steeping grains and maintain temperature for 30 minutes.
The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add the hops once the wort begins to boil and again with 30 minutes remaining. Add 1/2 tsp Irish moss with 15 minutes left. Chill the wort rapidly to 60 degrees, let the break material settle, rack to the fermenter and aerate thoroughly.
Use active 1500 ml (150 g Bavarian Wheat DME) yeast starter. Ferment at 60 degrees. Allow the beer to lager at 35 degrees for at least four weeks before bottling or serving. When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 2.5 volumes and serve at 50 degrees.
