Notes: This recipe is based on Avery's, discontinued, Mephistopheles. However, Mephistopheles lies in wait, within his soulstone. For this beer contains the soul of Mephistopheles. Black as the soul of the demon lord. While this soulstone exists, Mephistopheles cannot be destroyed.

Recipe modified for my system and my process.
Add extract and simple sugar at 60 min mark on the boil.
Note: need to look up yeast nutrient additions for big beers. I have fermaid o in stock at home. May need to copy other big beer oxygenation schedules to get the yeast to eat enough sugar.
Aerate with pure O2 for 120 seconds at 1 L/min to target roughly 14 ppm dissolved O2.
Aerate again at 12 hours for 70 seconds at 1 L/min to target an additional 9 ppm. (recommended in Yeast book, page 84)
Target 40M cells per mL per yeast book's instructions on pitching high gravity beers. A 7 liter starter (constant stir) at 1.036 gravity with 100 B cells will result in approx 1107 B cells.
Start fermentation at 66°F ramp to 77°F @ 1.074 specific gravity. According to the Avery blog, it usually takes about 48 hours to reach 1.074
Age on bourbon soaked oak cubes until desired oakiness is reached. Drain bourbon before adding cubes to beer. It's extremely easy to overdo the bourbon flavor. You can always dose bourbon at the end if you want more bourbon flavor.
Consider adding vanilla, coffee, cocoa, coconut, or other great stout additions. I don't think peppers would work with the belgian yeast flavors.
If you aren’t able to get that much sugar out of the mash you may boil for longer and/or add a 50/50 mix of DME and Dextrose Corn Sugar to the boil to hit your OG target.

| Notes: Mash for 45 minutes at 150°F (66°C). Boil for 90 minutes, following the hops and additions schedule. We knock out at 60°F (16°C) and hold overnight. Shoot for a pH going into the fermentor of about 5.2. Once we see visible signs of fermentation, we lower the temperature to 52°F (11°C) and hold for 1 week. We then let the temperature free rise back to 60°F (16°C) for a diacetyl rest for an additional week, then begin to crash to 32°F (0°C) over the course of a week. We then fine it and let it mature for an additional week before transferring, carbonating, and packaging. It should be very drinkable, light and refreshing, yet still showcase a crackery, doughy malt presence from the Pilsner malt. |

| Notes: This one is kind of light, in the style of most popular American beers. It's not my personal favourite, but good. Every one that are Bud fans realy like it.I think the honey and maple offsets the "cider" taste you usually get from using corn sugar. |
