Return to main mash and hold at 154° F (68° C) for 40 minutes or until conversion is achieved. Sparge with 168° F (76° C) water.

Notes: Hit 152 perfectly strike water was 175F. Efficiency was down so I had to supplement with corn sugar and malt extract. I barrel aged it in a 5 gallon whiskey barrel for about 6 weeks. This brew took 2nd place in the Wood Aged Category at BAM World Cup of Beer 2014. I ended up entering it as a British Barley wine as a base style because it didn't really have American characteristics anymore.

Notes: This is my first full grain beer! Just to see if it is worth stepping up from partial mash recipes. It was a lot of fun but my equipment wasn't quite right although I made it work. Mash was easy to manage and the boiling pot was at it's limits (no boil over thank goodness) but transferring wort to fermenter was a bit of a challenge without a syphon... Also cooling the wort with ice was a lot slower than I expected.
Look forward to tasting this beer!

Notes: This is an attempt to replicate the Kasteel Winter.

Use 2 packs of Saf Ale US-05 and 1 pack of Safebrew T-58

Boil half a pound of lactose with 4 oz of dark chocolate bar, then add to keg and condition for 65 years.....Just kidding....At least three weeks or more.

Scored 45 out of 50 points at the 2015 Peach State Brew Off. Advanced to mini BOS, but was bumped out for being in the wrong category.

Notes: 1) Treated water and got strike water up to 160 before mashing in. Mash was fairly straightforward but had to heat a couple times as mash sat around 152-154. I stirred 15 mins in and raised the heat to get up to 154 then let mash rest for the remaining mash time.

Mash PH: 5.7

2) Boil went as planned, added hops as recipe called for. I did make a last minute decision to add the 5 min boil hops, but pulled those out of what would've been all whirlpool. Thought it might impart a little more flavor.

3) With 5 mins left in boil, I added the corn sugar and boil hops then at end I immersion chilled to 160 and dropped the whirlpool for 30 mins.

4) I continued chilling which got to about 80F then transferred to the fermenter, moved to temp controlled ferm chamber to cool to 68F before pitching yeast.

OG: 1.064 - missed by .02 from recipe - I did measure this when the wort was still about 80 degrees and was filled with trub so not sure if that had an impact...

5) After temp was stable at 68F, I pitched the ballooned packet of activated yeast and shook the fermenter like hell. *Thanks amazon for not delivering my aeration kit today as you were supposed to...

6) 12 hours in and fermentation is going very strongly. I have a blow-off tube in a jug of sanitizer that is bubbling every 5 seconds. I'll continue to check ensuring their is no clogging from krausen.

7) Dropped Dry Hop as scheduled and pulled a samp!e at 7 days to check gravity. Its reading 1.010 which is off target. Beer tastes very good though. Checked again 2 days later and its still at 1.010 and even better aroma and taste with the second dry hop kicking in.

8) Lowered temp to 38 to cold crash for 2 days to prior to kegging.

9) Kegged with no issues and set carbonation to 2.3 vols. I sampled after 4 days and it's fantastic. Nice milky/pillowy mouthfeel, slight bitterness, and tastes like straight Orange juice.

Notes: - made this last spring (2017) and it was delicious
- keeping munich/vienna at 20% each
- bumped up late hops and switched to saaz from saphir
- going a bit higher ABV at 7% (expected)
- water recommendation is a bit high. ended up with a lot of extra wort last time and lower efficiency. Use about 30-32L next time instead of 34
- dropped Vienna for the 2019 version; not expecting too much of a difference if it's even noticeable at all.
- 2020: changed to 20% Munich II (10°L)
- 2022 version came out more like a Märzen with 27% barke munich. Dialed that back to 13% for next time. Also I've been using Sterling for bittering/FWH addition as it seems to have slightly more assertive bitterness than Magnum.
- 2023: 13% Munich is really nice, actually tastes like a Heller bock. keeping that ratio.
- 2024: 12% barke munich, double batch hit 75% efficiency finishing at 16°P
- 2025: cut out 1kg of pils, added more munich for ~15% since 2024 batch came out too high. shooting for 6.5%
- 2025 batch came out too low! added more malt back, ended up with ~70% efficiency. still shooting for 6.5%
