Notes: - 1 to 1.5 lb air-popped popcorn in the mash.
- Air pop the popcorn and add to the milled malt just before mashing. (1 lb of popcorn is about 2 cups unpopped kernels). Popcorn will soak up the water about the same amount as milled grain does and sink. I stir once during the step mash.
- Add the light honey at flame out. Do not boil honey or you will loose the honey flavor, (orange blossom, light clover etc). I use raw clover but any will work.
- Aim for low IBUs, 10-15 at most, no more or it will overshadow the honey.
- Use very low mineral water, I start with distilled.
-Do not do a protein rest, it destroys the head on this beer! A hochkurz mash schedule or simple infusion mash @ 150 degrees is fine.
- Use a high attenuating yeast, Rocky mountain, Diamond, Copenhagen, 34/70. You dont want any fruity tastes from the yeast.
- Most definitely improves with lagering; 6-8 weeks. The light honey taste will start to become noticeable. If you can keep out of it while it lagers its a great beer.
*Named after my dog Popcorn, who was my quality control guy on brew day. He vigilantly watched for anything that fell on the floor and got a bowl of spent grain at the end of the mash. I made dog cookies out of the remaining adding either pumpkin or peanut butter. PS he absolutely hated popcorn, wouldnt touch it, go figure...He passed 03/29/22 and is greatly missed. |

Notes: Pre-prohibition lager style.
-Golden color, thick, creamy head; full flavor, modest maltiness, subtle sweetness of the corn; balanced hop bitterness; clean bitter finish from the cluster hops.
-Great attenuation, no esters. Very clean and crisp.
-Crystal clear, sparkling.
-Hallertau tradition or Liberty can be substituted for the stryian hops.
- Lager for 6 weeks. This yeast is very powdery but it will clear brilliantly given a good lagering time. Really good drinking beer.
-Any BMC fan will enjoy this.
Trying JY330 - Dutch Lager yeast from Jasper Labs. (Heineken yeast?) Outcome TBD.
(ARFARFAN'ARF - An old Victorian slang term used to describe a drunken man, meaning he has had MANY ‘arfs,’” or half-pints.) |

Notes: Smells fairly apple-y and not very hoppy in the carboy.
Kegged: 8/21/2017
Notes: I reused the yeast cake left over from the Lemongrass Wheat and as a result fermentation started within minutes and was fully active within an hour. The result is this beer finished out completely in only about 3 days. Will definitely be reusing yeast cake in the future. Worked great.
I am going to let the beer sit in the keg for a week before dry hopping. Drain off the yeast from the bottom and then add dry hop for 5 days. |
