Notes: Note to future self: Ground malt to midway between the 0.05 and 0.025 settings (so 0.0375?), and ended up too fine and it didn't drain well from the mash tun.
This recipe is based on Vytautas Jančys's Keptinis recipe from Historical Brewing Techniques by Lars Marius Garshol.

Otherwise, very normal brew until the end of the mash at which point I covered a baking sheet in spent grain (this was only a small portion of the overall grain), and baked it. Since the wort wasn't draining well from the mash tun, I spent a long time trying to stir the wort out of the mash, and scooping it out and pressing it through strainers. I think it was about an hour before I could get about 6G from the mash tun and began the boil. I boiled it for about 20 minutes before adding my bittering hops, then 15 minutes and added my immersion cooler, then another 15 minutes and then added my flavour hops before starting to cool the wort.
I only cooled the wort down to about 60 or 70C, at which point I put it back into the mash tun (with most of the grain removed), then I dumped in the baked grain to soak for 30 minutes to an hour before draining again (this time much easier since there was very little grain) into a bucket where I pitched my kveik and went to bed.
About 5 hours later I got up and saw that the kveik wasn't doing anything, so I pitched another pack of kveik I had and waited 4 more hours, before finally giving up and pitching a pack of dry US-05 which grew a krausen within minutes.
To be fair, the packs of kveik I had were pretty old. If this brew turns out even moderately well, I'll want to try it again with kveik.
After the gravity dropped by about 30 points (about 12 hours after I pitched the US-05, 21 hours total from transferring to the open bucket), I transferred to a glass carboy.
See the tilt graph here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Wzd0I1CZFdyxrhJR-jzwBLvwTIT5-TX3BXMVCHyaGmI/edit#gid=189348009
Within about 16 more hours (37 hours total), it had gone from 1.073 to 1.016. It stayed at about 30C pretty much the entire time, which is well above US-05's temperature max recommended temp of 25. It's been about a week since I made this, and I'm planning to wait another week before bottling.
Note that about a week after brewing, it looked like it was stable at 1.015, but then I accidentally jostled the carboy a bit and the SG dropped to 1.011. My best guess is that the floating hydrometer was pressed up against the side of the carboy, so it wasn't giving a valid reading until I jostled it.
Another note: from watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4CdMlUpZUI I gather that it's pronounced KEPTEENEE. |

Notes: Mash at 153F x 60 min then place mash in Pot and place saran wrap on surface and purge with C02 and seal lid with electrical tape. Apply heat belt at 110F. When 110 F stir in 1b crushed 2-row and re saran wrap and purge with co2 and reseal with electrical tape. Sour Mash for 24h (more time if want more tart). Place in Lauter Tun and sparge and boil as above. Add 2.5 dried Pluots and 3/4 tsp pectinase to secondary x 2 weeks. Keg.
Really good brew. Need to sour more than 24h next time. Cheers. |

Notes: This my take on the Madtree Rubus Cacao Recipe but instead of using Raspberry, I have substituted Blueberry puree. The name is inspired from Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Notes: This recipe turned out AMAZING!!! So, I got frozen berries from Trader Joe's and they were added in secondary but smashing them up first with a potato masher in a bowl with very little water and the malt extract dissolved. They malt extract was added as a afterthought as I did not get great efficiency and figured the water content from the berries would dilute the beer's ABV and body, but next time it will be excluded. Also the strawberries completely overshadowed the kiwis and the kiwis were a bitch to peel so next time they will be excluded as well. And careful with the yeast cause I got too much clove and no banana, I'll probably use a smaller starter and higher fermentation temp next time.
It is the perfect beer to give those anti-beer women who you are trying to get drunk and into their pants, hence the name- although it has multiple meanings. |

Notes: Got 6 jars of Eden's for FREE. 20 oz each. Slightly thinner than extract - like molasses - so dissolve and get a preboil OG to know hopping rate with goal of 35 IBU. Then see what I get.
Boiling 7 G water at OG yielding aprox. 5% beer. Boiled 90 minutes.
Preboil OG of 7 gallons was 1.038. 6 gallons into primary fermentation. Estimated to be 4.5% beer because syrup was slightly thinner than extract.
Color of a porter. 1st rack planned to be at 7 days. Fermented in 3 days! Gravity will be recorded then. |
