Notes: Use 3 liquid yeast packages. Mash at 152° Increase the pre-boil volume as needed to allow a 90 minute boil, which will help reduce DMS in the beer.

DRINKABILITY: Has been good. Everyone has liked it.

This is brewed at the original recipe from Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer. Page 196.

Pre-Boil Gravity expected: 1.069 (16.9°P)
OG: 1.068 (12.0°P) 03/15/15 Pitched
FG: 1.016 (2.5°P) 03/27/15 Kegged
Fermented at 62° for 8 days. Raised to 64° for two days. Last day lowered to 45° forced conditioned to clarify.

Used a sprange system from Jim's equipment. Boiled 4 gallons and sparge to 6 gallons total.
Errors found in digital temperature probe. Found to be 15° off. New ThermoWorks ordered. Had to add 1.5 lbs of DME to drive OG to 1.068. Poor efficiency due to under temperature conversion.

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.

Cool wart pitch and leave in primary for 6-8 days. Move to secondary for 7 days this helps clarify. Bottle and enjoy. .5 tsp. corn sugar per 12z bottles. Leave 2 weeks.

Notes: BW#2
Based on the original recipe this time I want to achieve the following:

*No DMS this time, not sure how to do this but more attention to the heating of the wort in the boiler and CO2 blanketing
*Dry hop to hell! 100g in 4.5lts worked a treat so I would like to dry hop this one with 300g of Cascade.
*No stuck mash, not sure if this is entirely possible but I have added rice hulls to this recipe to ensure that I get a better runoff
*No addition of Maltodextrin at the end of fermentation. This time I shall ensure that the lactobacillus culture is active and lively before pitching with the US05
*I shall be adding a good 1-2lt pitch of my house culture of lactics and wild yeast cultured from some grain suspended in a demijohn of wort. This has been drained and fed a couple of times and I am pretty sure I also added some dregs from a lambic bottle too.
*Increase head retention: Add enough 80% Lactic Acid in the wort prior to heat/boil/fermentation to reduce the pH down to 4.4 apparently this will inhibit the lactics breaking down the large proteins I need for head retention. We shall see.

Mash Schedule:
*Dough in 11lts of liquor at 62°C(?) to start the mash at 52°C
*Leave for 10 minutes
*Remove approximately 30% of the mash and put in a large saucepan
*Add 30g of Fuggle hops
*Heat to 60°C and hold for 1-2 minutes
*Bring to a boil and leave for 20 minutes
*Return the boiled decoction to the main mash and stir
*Mash temp should now be 63°C
*Leave for 45 minutes
*Fly sparge with near boiling water (95°C)to collect 26lts in the boiler
*Adjust wort pH in the boiler using 80% Lactic Acid, before heating, to a pH of 4.4
*Heat until bubbles appear
*Chill to 20°C
*Pitch yeast and house culture

Extra Cultures Being Added:

*Vicaris - Triple/Geuze
*Odell - 5 Barrel Pale Ale
*Siren Craft Brewery - Gouttière Saison
*Wild Beer - Solera Aged Beer

Well I've done it, I placed 2nd in the London & SE Home Brew Competition in April 2015
See the link for the website, I knew this was a great beer, it was balanced and hoppy, but every time I opened a bottle I just thought 'wow Ive done it'
Much thanks goes to Michale Tonsmeire. Cheers!

Notes: The OG came in at 1.065. I guess the Graham Crackers really kicked it up. FG came in close to the 1.012 as projected in this recipe. 6.96 ABV before other ingredients.

Reviews are very positive so far.

I will likely add more Marshmallow vodka next time. Eventually i would like to get the marshmallow flavor/scent using marshmallow of marshmallow puff.
