Notes: Strike water should be 15F above desired temp, but not sure how the pumpkin will impact the temp... if it's cold might go with the normal 22/23F temp loss? The vodka infused vanilla bean and the extract will steep for a couple weeks with each other and will be added before bottling. Roasted pumpkin in the oven at 350F for 60min. Mash looked really think for some reason and the temp was way lower than usual. I had to top off so much I just left it at 152F instead of 154. Not sure why, I did just get a new mash paddle so that might be the reason. Sparge was super slow and I had to stir it while I was sparging to prevent it from being stuck. I did a hybrid batch/fly sparge. Next time will probably use a whole pumpkin to prevent this. The OG actually may be lower because of the large amount of pumpkin floating in the wort.

Notes: Belhaven St. Andrews Ale Clone
36 IBU
4.6% ABV
A few rare renditions may be as pale as 10 SRM, but most have a color rating of approximately 12.5–17 SRM.

The bittering hop in Scottish ales is usually a Goldings variety, while the aroma hops is usually Fuggles or a combination of Goldings and Fuggles. Typical IBU values range between 29 and 35. Scottish ales are rarely dry-hopped, though the exported Belhaven St. Andrews Ale (36 IBU) is.

• Boil the bittering hops for no more than 45 minutes to minimize the amount of astringency leached into the brew and thus enhance the brew’s smoothness.

• Use flavor hops sparingly. The finish of a Scottish ale relies more on clean maltiness than hop aromatics to make an impression.

• Because we are fermenting Scottish ale at the bottom of the yeast’s working range, fermentation tends to start more slowly than normal and yeast reproduction is slightly impeded. To compensate, pitch twice as much yeast as you would for a “normal” ale. Therefore, the recipe calls for two packages of yeast.

• Because high gravities are an additional impediment to yeast getting started, add the brewing sugar not to the kettle but to the fermenter after fermentation is already securely
progressing.

• Lager and condition Scottish ales, similar to altbiers, at a temperature below 50 °F (10 °C) for a few weeks, and serve them at about 55 °F (13 °F).

Notes: Target Pre-Boil Volume: 5 gal
Target Post-Boil Volume: 3 gal
Target Post-Boil Gravity: 1.269

Actual Pre-Boil gravity at 5 gallons: 1.116, estimated post-boil wort gravity: 1.193
(probably didn't use enough corn sugar, weight measurement was skewed)

Mash with:
1/2 tsp Calcium Chloride
1 tsp Epsom Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Soda

Boil:
- mix all boil hops together (6 oz) and split into 24 equal size additions of .25 oz each
- add one hop addition every 5 minutes during boil (measurements in ingredients set at 1 hr, average time in boil)

- remove 1 pint wort (@1.193), mix with 2 pints water and make starter (@1.064) for WLP099

- mix 3 Qts wort (@1.193) with 1 gallon water for primary (@1.083)
***Use plastic fermenter with lid to allow for easy wort/hop additions***
- pitch 1056

- put remaining ~2 gallons wort (@1.193) in sanitized container, refrigerate

Primary Fermentation:
- Wort addition
----- once fermentation starts, perform wort addition every 12 hours for 8.5 days (17 additions):
-------- add 2 cups from reserved wort using sanitized measuring cup
----- *** monitor gravity of primary to check for slowing ***
- On addition 10, add high gravity yeast starter
- Add oxygen daily (evening) for 4 days. Stir wort vigorously with mash paddle.

Secondary Fermentation:
- Transfer to secondary after 10 days

Dry Hop (secondary only):
- mix dry hops together and divide into 28 equal portions
- add 1 portion daily (evening) for 28 days

Bottle:
- bottle after 28 days in secondary
- 12 oz bottles
- measure gravity before bottling: G
- bottle with:
2.5 - ( (G - FG) * 1.6 * 10^4 ) / 11
ounces of corn sugar
Expected volumes CO2 with no additional sugar:
678 * ( G - FG ) + 0.9

Total expected effective OG: 1.136

ACTUALS:
- OG at beginning of primary: 1.075
- Effective OG: 1.153
- Starting with addition 5, added .19 lbs corn sugar for next 6 additions, then .38 lbs for following 3 additions
- added 099 with addition 7
- 10 total wort additions, 13 total additions
- dry hopped with additions 11 to 22
- racked evening after final dry hop addition (time 23, day 11.5)
- gravity at time 8: 1.058, at time 10: 1.070, at time 23: 1.042

Notes: No Irish Moss - should be a bit cloudy
No Yeast Nutrient - not using yeast!
Use PH Stabilizer to get mash liquor to 5.2

Add in Thawed Frozen Mangoes towards end of primary fermentation. Buy fresh mangoes, skin and slice and add sugar, then freeze. Unfreeze then smash into pulp, add pulp into widemouth fermentation chamber (big mouth bubbler or brew bucket).

This late primary add is in addition to the 2 lbs used in the boil, so there should be a total of 4 lbs mango in this recipe.

Should age at least 6 months, but preferably a year or longer.

Ferment hot and relish the milky white film on top of the brew.

Notes: I brewed this a couple of weeks ago liked it so much had to brew it again

nice light grain bill for an easy drinker

I used corn meal and minute rice this time

last time I used flake corn and flaked rice

I just started drinking this on Friday 03-28-2014

very clear like glass I like this recipe a lot but the first time I brewed this I used 50/50 pale malt / Vienna

next time I brew this I will be using all Vienna to see if I like that better
