Notes: Mill the grains, mix in the rice hulls and mash hops, and mash at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes. Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 7 gallons (26.5 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding Brewers Crystals and Whirlfloc according to the schedule. After the boil, stir or recirculate for about 5 minutes to create a vortex and add the knockout/whirlpool hops (at about 205°F/96°C). Continue to spin, cooling if possible to 180°F (82°C), and add the remaining whirlpool hops. Chill to about 69°F (21°C), oxygenate the wort, and pitch a healthy yeast starter.

Ferment at 72°F (22°C) for a few days, or until the gravity has dropped to about 1.024, then raise the temperature to 75°F (24°C) for a few more days or until fermentation is complete and the gravity has stabilized. Soft crash over 2 days to 56°F (13°C), drop the trub (or rack to secondary), then continue crashing to 34°F (1°C) and drop trub again. Add dry hops. For 3 days, rouse the hops or burp with CO2 once per day to get the hops back into suspension. On the third day, drop trub again. Package and carbonate to about 2.45 volumes of CO2.

BREWER’S NOTES

Mash Hopping: Adding hops to the mash helps beer stability via the alpha and beta acids’ ability to break down metallic compounds that could promote the oxidation of beer (iron, copper, and manganese).

Brewers Crystals: These are a commercially available blend of glucose solids and corn syrup; they are a way to add strength while maintaining body and mouthfeel—similar to malt extract, but without malt flavor.

Bitterness: Don’t worry about it. The IBUs are here to help you dial in quantities, but given the beer’s body and emphasis on whirlpool hops, this beer will not taste like 90-plus IBUs.
Whirlpool: We do our whirlpool hops in two stages just to help the flow of our brew day. However, optionally, you can add all the whirlpool hops at 180°F (82°C), and this will also help to keep the bitterness down.

Cold Dry-Hopping: Because we dry hop at 34°F (1°C), it’s important to rouse the hops once or twice a day, getting them up into the beer where they can extract. The colder temperatures increase the speed at which they will drop to the bottom of your vessel.

Notes: The flaked oats were slightly toasted in the oven @ 150°C

Secondary (4 weeks):

First 2 weeks:

- 200g Almonds (chopped, 20 min @150°C in the oven) in a bag
- 2x vanilla beans (pre-soaked in vodka for 2 weeks) along with:
3 tonka beans (one of them grated)
Hungarian and American medium toasted oak cubes/chips (about 60g together, little bit more of the american)
- 20g cocoa nibs and 1 grated tonka bean (both toasted in the oven for about 10 minutes @ 150°C)

Second 2 weeks:
- Took out the almond bag and put another 200g in (chopped, 30-40 min @ 150°C in the oven)

My OG was 1.112 and the FG was 1.044 of which I am uncertain why that happened. 2 packs of yeast should have been enough, and I don't recall any problems with mashing. So the alc. was 9%

Before bottling I couldn't refuse to sample it a few times in secondary, it tasted and smelled SO GOOD I could drink it right away. It was really marzipany/almondy, desserty, chocolatey...

Bottled amount was 12 liters, 2.0 Co2/vol

At first I was a little bit let down because the aroma was not nearly as strong as it was in the secondary. There was no alcohol burn, it simply wasnt very strong in aromas and flavours as mch as I expected. I didn't get the 'marzipan' feel really... it was still delicious though.

After aging for 3-4 months is where it really started to taste as I anticipated... started to get more and more of the marzipan/almond, chocolate popped up a lot more too. Much much stronger in the aromas and flavours, just what I was missing in it's younger state.

Now it really is a marzipan beer! :)
This is my mastercraft!

Notes: This recipe started out as an extract brew we did a year ago. It was a big hit with the friends as it was a really clean beer. We decided to convert it over to an all-grain form for our first attempt at the full brew process (hence the lower efficiency).

Fermented for two weeks at 68 deg F. Transferred to keg and force carbonated at 20 psi for three days.

Little light on the palate, but a very drinkable beer in the end.
