Notes: Add 1/4 of the nutrient mix on brew day, on day 2, day 4, and day 8. Keep fermentation temperature between 64 and 68 degrees. Rack to secondary fermenter after a month. After first month, temperature control not as critical. Mead should be finished in 3-4 months. Carrot Blossom mead normally needs mead acid blend--add it to taste before bottling or kegging. Carrot Blossom honey is full of caramel like complex sugars that linger into the mead.
Mashing Instructions:
Heat honey jar in hot water so it will pour easily. Bring 1/2 gal. high alkaline water to boil and turn off stove. Slowly add the honey to the water stirring constantly. Honey-water mixture should be around 130 degrees. Cover and let it sit for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, put covered pan in tub of cold water for half-hour. Add 1 gallon cold water to carboy. Pour honey-water mixture on top of the cold water. Add more water until you get to 1.120 OG. |

Notes: Used up some left over Shepard Delight and Redback malt supplementing the pale crystal and American ale malt. Aiming to increase the hop bill with some attention grabbing additions of Zythos added late and in dry hop with some New Zealand hop chasers.
Efficiency was clearly off as above stats from recipe ingredients were quite different. OG was 1.058 and FG was 1.010 so an ABV of 6.3%
Nothing matches style but I don't particularly care! It tastes great |

Notes: In preperation, we also require 100g of Sour Patch Kids, to be soaked in a sealed container with 200ml of Vodka for 10 day's minimum.
30 days for optimal performance.
Ferment for 10 day's with American Ale Yeast with cleaner flavour.
Once krausen has subsided, rack to secondary.
Before racking, add Sour Patch Kids & Vodka mix and an additional 500g of Sour Patch Kids.
This will cause a secondary reaction, should back off over 2 days or so. Once backed off, dry hop for 5 days.
Bottle or keg as required on the 5th day. |

Bohemian Pilsener
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.056 (13.9 °P) FG = 1.016 (4.2 °P)
IBU = 40 SRM = 4 ABV = 5.3%
Ingredients:
10.75 lb. (4.8 kg) Durst continental Pilsner malt (or similar) 2 °L
0.75 lb. (340 g) Briess Carapils® malt (or similar) 2 °L
4.83 AAU Czech Saaz hops (1.38 oz./39 g for 3.5% alpha acid) (60 min)
5.8 AAU Czech Saaz hops (1.67 oz./47 g for 3.5% alpha acid) (30 min)
2.9 AAU Czech Saaz hops (0.83 oz./24 g of 3.5% alpha acid) (10 min)
2.9 AAU Czech Saaz hops (0.83 oz./24 g of 3.5% alpha acid) (0 min)
White Labs WLP800 (Pilsner Lager), Wyeast 2001 (Urquell) or Fermentis Saflager S-23 yeast
Step by Step
Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 154 °F (68 °C). Hold the mash at
154 °F (68 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons (25 L) and the gravity is 1.044 (10.9 °P).
The total wort boil time is 90 minutes, which helps reduce the SMM (S-methyl methionine) present in the lightly-kilned Pilsner malt and results in less DMS (Dimethyl Sulfide) in the finished beer. Add the first hop addition with 60 minutes remaining in the boil. The other hop additions are at 30, 10, and zero minutes left in the boil. Add Irish moss or other kettle finings with 15 minutes left in the boil.
Chill the wort to 50 °F (10 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is 20 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast, four packages of liquid yeast or one package of liquid yeast in a
9-liter starter.
Ferment around 50 °F (10 °C) until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in two weeks or less, but don’t rush it. Cold fermented lagers take longer to ferment than ales or lagers fermented at warmer temperatures. If desired, perform a diacetyl rest during the last few days of active fermentation.
Rack the finished beer to a keg and force carbonate or rack to a bottling bucket, add the priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2 to 2.5 volumes.
A month or more of cold conditioning at near freezing temperatures will mellow some of the flavors and improve the beer. Serve at 43 to 46 °F (6 to 8 °C). |

Notes: Steven gave me some ingredients for xmas. I added some other items and created this brew. Should be interesting. This is the first time I've made a yeast starter and I am impressed. Obvious fermentation activity within three hours and it's vigorous.
Chilling the wort was a pain. Even the snow bank didn't help. This will be the last time I do this without a chiller.
Final volume is 5.5 or maybe 5.75 gallons. The OG was over 1.070 so we added as much water as I could comfortably get in the bucket.
Update: 2/6 We sampled the first bottle this weekend. Success! Nice aroma of coffee with a hint of dark chocolate. There is black and then there is midnight black. Then there is this beer....dark! The aroma entices you to drink and the initial taste entices you to take more. Then the bitter hits you. Not a hop bitter. Very bitter but in a very good way. Not a beer for everyone and not for all the time. This would make an entertaining black and tan. I'll be doing this again and cutting back on the darker malts but wow is this good. |
