measured pre-boil gravity after 4 days of souring at 1.042 or 1.043. Sweet wort tastes a little sour, definitely lots of cooked corn aroma, which I hope will boil off. Boiled for 90 mins.
After 8 days of fermentation, refractometer read 6.8 brix, which puts this at about 1.006. After chilling, the sample was moderately sour but very clean, not having much saison character. Apricot puree added after 8 days of fermentation.
3/14: sampled, apricot added a nice background note. added 1 pound of frozen mangos. |

Notes: Brewed successfully on 03/19/16.
Efficiency was higher probably due to the pH.
OG 14.3 brix (1.0558-1.056*). I got about 6 full gallons - aimed for 71% efficiency (got 73% reflected on recipe).
Pitched yeast @66 degrees.
Mash at 154.4 & 154.4@ 30 mins.
I saw some bubbles @ about 2.5 hours after I pitch, it's fermenting but no signs of active fermentation otherwise.
03/23/16: Gravity measured @ 7.1 brix (1.0126). Seems like this particular yeast strain likes to attenuate much higher than expected (5-7 points under this calculator [usually 3 under])
03/29/16: Gravity 7.25 brix (1.013 @5.4% - 76% attenuation**)
04/04/16: kegged @7.1 brix (1.0126 at 5.5%).
05/02/16: Tapped the keg. Poured a still-cloudy pint. Flavor was actually very malty and reminescent of the brown ale almost, it did have a hint of hop aroma, and finishes with more hops. It feels pretty thick on the tongue, so either mashing lower or using a higher attenuating yeast will be more to my liking.
Also the water profile was set for amber-malty.
Alcohol wise it's much easier on the brain.
We'll see how it mellows out.
05/03/16: I tasted today with a clean palate and overall it's a very drinkable beer. There's caramel and sweetness up front that's followed by some hop in the after-taste. Does not taste like 35 IBUs, but it does have more hop aroma than the brown ale. I can see myself brewing this again but with more attenuative yeast, and dry water profile.
Visually it's cloudy (probably because of the hop oils), and I fined it today. Foam has a slight red-hue to it. Overall not bad.
05/07/16: Tried several pours and the gelatin is starting to make it sparkly very nicely. It's pretty malty and thick, with some caramel and dark fruits, but not much toffee or nuttiness like I expected. The hops come in at the end to keep the beer balanced- you can really taste how much the Fuller's yeast enhances the malt profile. |

Imprint Beer Co.’s Black Forest Cake Stout clone
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.100 FG = 1.028
IBU = 65 SRM = 69 ABV = 9.6%
Ingredients
15.5 lbs. (7 kg) American 2-row pale malt
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Munich malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) Carafoam® malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British chocolate malt (350 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British crystal malt (65 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) roasted barley
12 oz. (0.34 kg) Carafa® Special III
3 lb. (1.4 kg) Vintner’s Harvest sweet cherry puree
16 AAU Magnum hops (90 min.) (1 oz./28 g at 16% alpha acids)
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Cholaca liquid cacao (original flavor) or 12 oz. (0.34 kg) toasted Ecuadorian cacao nibs
5 Madagascar vanilla beans
Wyeast 1968 (London ESB) or White Labs WLP002 (English Ale) or Lallemand London ESB English-Style Ale yeast
2⁄3 cup corn sugar (if priming)
Step by step
Several days before brewday, scrape open and cut the 5 vanilla beans into 1-inch (2.5-cm) segments and soak in vodka or Bourbon until ready to add to the secondary.
Mill the grains and mix with 6.8 gallons (25.7 L) of 167 °F (75 °C) strike water to reach a mash temperature of 155 °F (68 °C). Hold this temperature for 60 minutes. If you have soft water, you may want to hold off on adding the roasted grains and British crystal malts until the final 15 minutes of the mash. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear. Sparge the grains with enough water to obtain 7 gallons (26.5 L) of wort. At this point, you may want to test the wort’s gravity. The goal should be to have 7 gallons (26.5 L) of 1.072 SG wort at the start of the boil. You can add dried malt extract (DME) at this point if the SG is low or you may want to wait until the beer is in the fermenter. If you wait to add the DME, be sure to add it after fermentation begins to calm down.
Boil the wort for 90 minutes or more, adding hops according to the ingredient list. After the boil, turn off heat and chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). Aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air and pitch yeast. There should be 5 gallons (19 L) of cooled wort in the fermenter. Be sure to have room in your fermenter for the cherry puree.
Ferment at 66 °F (19 °C) for 10 days (adding the fruit puree on day 6), then raise the temperature to 70 °F (21 °C) for 3–4 days. Carefully rack into a secondary vessel containing Cholaca/cacao nibs and vanilla extract, and age to desired taste. Crash the beer to 35 °F (2 °C) for 48 hours. Bottle or keg the beer and carbonate to approximately 2.25 volumes. |
