Notes: The Mild is actually Joe White Traditional Ale, amber and roasted barley also Joe White. Weyermann Carared and Briess Torrified red wheat.
Tried this one a bit early as I was out of beer, but it is bloody beautiful. In fact I think I'll put another down this weekend.
I did make the second batch, and knocked it off just as quick. Have discovered my thermometer on the mash tun was way off, so will be making some changes next time. |

===
What happens if you make a beer where you use pumkin as a fermentable and use as much of it as possible? The plan is to try to isolate the pumpkin flavor specifically. It will be roasted for 1 hour at 375F, but I will forego sprinkling with brown sugar. I want only the pumpkin sugars to be contributing to the mash. Then, I'll have to blend the pumpkin so that as much of the sugar as possible is accessible to the enzymes.
PPG of Pumpkin
===
I'm using the wild ass guess of 8 as a starting point from this post:
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/pumpkin-specific-gravity.196466/
The big question on this is will it finish fermenting? If I use the minimum recommended diastic power of the mash, can I get the full conversion? Will it just take longer? I've lengthened the mash to 120 minutes to see if it affects the conversion of whatever starches may be present in the pumpkin.
Furthermore, if you max out the pumpkin contribution as a fermentable, what on earth will it taste like? Pumpkin juice from Harry Potter? Will it just end up reading as a surprisingly normal beer?
Note on quantity of pumpkin to buy
===
2 sugar pie pumpkins reduced down to 19oz of roasted pumpkin when I did burninating the pumpkinside. This requires 56 oz of roasted pumpkin. That adds up to roughly 6 pumpkins, I believe.
EDIT:
They didn't have any more sugar pie pumpkins because it's the day after thanksgiving. So I am switching to acorn squash. Though Kate suggested that Butternut might have been a better choice.
EDIT2:
I screwed up roasting the acorn squash. I left them in the oven when we left for a party. Hours later we came home and the whole house smelled pungently of squash. I discovered I had never taken them out and the oven was still on. I composted the desiccated husks, and felt suitably shitty about myself about the whole thing.
It seems like roasting will cook it down and reduce the volume by about half. So for 3.5 lbs of roasted squash, I'll need 7~ lbs of raw squash. |

Notes: A Christmas themed ale based on Charlie Papazian's Christma ale from Complete Joy of Homebrew 3rd Edition. I've been brewing with this one and tweaking it along (i.e. "misreading the recipe and using the wrong amounts, changing hops to whatever I have on hand, etc") for 3 years now and it always gets rave reviews. This one follows last year's version which was the best of the bunch.
Steep grains in 1.5 gallon water for 30 minutes
Add LME and Cascade hops and enough water to make it 2.5 gal
Boil 60 minutes
Add orange peel and ginger with 8 min remaining
Add honey at 2 minutes and turn off burner.
After some cooling, sparge wort into fermenting vessel.
Steep cinnamon stick 5 minutes in near boiling water to pasteurize, add to fermenting vessel.
Pitch yeast.
Rack after one week, bottle after another week. |
