Notes: This is the first of 3 experiments on base malts. Yes its not what you'd expect for a malt experiment, high IBU and some pretty flavor tweaking special malts. But I dont really care what the base malts 'taste like by themselves' as much as how they taste in my favorite brews, IPA's :) All ingredients are kept common except the main malt bill. American Rahr 2 row, Experiment 2 will be German Munich Malt. Experiment 3 English Maris Otter. Ill report back after making and tasting all 3.
Note still a 60 minute boil, but I achieve the IBU I want with more hops and not adding them until 30 minutes in, to maintain more hop flavor and aroma. Takes slightly more hops but worth it IMO.

Notes: Add honey with 5 minutes left in the boil.
Grate 2 large oranges leaving the pith behind and add the peel to the secondary.
Despite the high alcohol content from the honey this is a citrusy, light, and refreshing beer. |

Notes: This is a modified Northern Brewer kit that can be found here:
http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/kama-citra-session-ipa-recipe-kit.html
I added 2 pound of sugar to boost the ABV, and added the DME and sugar at 30 minutes in the boil to raise the IBUs. The kit recipe calls for 0.5 oz of Centennial at 60 minutes, but the kit comes with a full ounce. I added 0.5 oz at the start of the boil, and over the next 30 minutes I periodically threw in 3-4 pellets every few minutes. |

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: Ca2SO4 slut. Får tillsätta halva mängden ≈5g ner i fatet vid torrhumlingen.
Dubbel humlemängd för torrhumling inskriven men hälften används då det bara är hälften av detta recept som blir klon.
Resterande blir rest-kveik-på-feeling.
Samma gäller jästen.
Glömde torrified wheat så la till vetemalt. Pga låg effektivitet och förpackningsstorlek ökade jag också mängden från 0.6 till 1kg av både den och Cara Gold

Notes: The malt is German oak-smoked wheat malt. Acid malt only added for my system mash pH. Use Polish Lublin hops for more authenticity (my LHBS doesn't carry them, so Saaz or other Noble hop works well). Use either Alt or Kölsch yeast.
If bottling, use heavy bottles for the 4.0 Vol CO2 carbonation level.
