Notes: Lightbulb is a modern pale ale full of bright hop flavours and mind sweetness that rounds out the whole beer and makes it more substantial. At only 4.5% this beer would give most 7% IPAs a run for their money.

Yeast: Use half pack of S-04 and US05
Fermentation temperature/steps: Ferment at 18, then diacetyl rest at 22c.

If using oats with husks the quantity of oats will need to be adjusted to account for the husks (e.g. use 1.5kg oats with husks if the ratio is 50/50).

Notes: 90 minute boil. Chill to 18C and pitch yeast. Ramp primary 5 days up to 23C. Ready in 4 weeks. Best after 6 weeks. Store very cool (< 10C) if storing longer than 2 months. (Belgian Pale’s are not a long term storage ale). Modified from recipe at Candi Syrup http://www.candisyrup.com/uploads/6/0/3/5/6035776/leffe_blonde_-_040.pdf

Notes: With the berry sensory notes that Sundew Ale (OYL-401) produces, it naturally fits many pale, fruity styles. I wanted to see how the yeast pairs with the flavors of a dark beer (dark chocolate, dried fruit, toffee, coffee, and roasty goodness!) and settled on a stout. By design, this recipe sits in the middle of various stout subclasses and with a few simple adjustments can be tailored to the personal tastes of the brewer. For example, mash with less grain at 148°F for higher attenuation and a drier finish to make a dry Irish stout, or increase the amount of oats to 10-20% to make an oatmeal stout.

The higher mash temperature gives body without being overly sweet, the dehusked and debittered Carafa III adds beautiful roasted color without the astringency, and the flaked oats help with a nice stable head. You may substitute Maris Otter for the Golden Promise. Other possible substitutions include honey malt or a medium crystal malt for the Golden Naked Oats (or whatever you prefer – it is your beer!)

First Gold reflects the more traditional English hop character and also adds some fruity character with a touch of spice. The Ariana hop choice brings a higher alpha acid percentage to the recipe, and also lends some blackcurrant notes. When added to the whirlpool, the hops don’t make the beer overly bitter or overpower the other aromas. For a more traditional English take, I’ve always been a fan of East Kent Golding or Fuggles.

MASH GUIDELINES:
Infusion, Temp: 154°F, Time: 60 min
Boil for 90 minutes

YEAST
OYL-401 Sundew. The temperature range is relatively broad, from 64-78°F. We recommend slight overpitching or a fresh starter for more berry notes. Sundew will shine at fermentation temperatures in the mid-70s.

Even though the boil is 90 minutes, add the first hops at the 60 minute mark. I prefer this method, so that I open a 1 oz packet of hops and dump it into the kettle as opposed to weighing it out or ending up with partial packets lying around.

Notes: We have used new Crisp grains for this one. Also lot of stirring of the mash and mashed inside the pot. We also added 10ml of CRS which is a big difference from previous.

The temp of the water (i.e. inside the pot) after all mixing and ph testing, just before we left it for one hour was 69ish and the grains 65ish. Assuming the temp stayed in this range as it was insulated well.

Temp calibrated gravity reading was 1.048 which worked out to be around 70%.

Notes: Use Spring Water
Consider the late addition hops at 5 and 0 rather than 10 and 5 to get a more 'hop forward' taste. For this recipe, we followed the original directions for late hop additions.
Original recipe identifies 1.042 as Original Gravity and 1.012 at Final Gravity. ABV should also be at 3.8%.
OG was 1.041
Gravity at secondary ferment was 1.026.

Notes: Total Water Volume Needed = 10.50 gal
Mash Water = 5.00 gal @ 164 Deg
Mash Temp = 152 for 60 minutes
Sparge Water = 5.50 gal @ 170 Deg
Sparge Sit Time = 15 minutes

Add the following to each 5 gallons of water:
Gypsum - 2 tsp
Calcium Chloride - 1/2 tsp

Pre-Boil Volume = 7.75 Gallons
Add 5 drops Fermcap-S at boil
Add Corn Sugar with 15 minutes left on the boil
Add Whirlfloc tablets 15 minutes left in boil

Filter hops by putting a 5 gallon paint strainer bag into the primary and pouring wort through the strainer before pitching yeast

Rehydrate US-05 prior to pitching
1) Warm the dry yeast to room temperature
2) In a sanitized container, prepare 1/2 cup of sterile water at 95-105°F
3) Sprinkle the dry yeast on top of the water, trying to avoid setting up large, dry clumps.
4) Let sit 15 minutes, then gently stir.
5) When the yeast has reconstituted, gently stir again to form a cream and let sit another 5 minutes.
6) Carefully and slowly, adjust the temperature of the yeast to within 15°F of the wort temperature.
7) Pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel, ideally as soon as possible.

First time with the Cream Ale Yeast. It's very nice.

Notes: The first place winner in the 2017 AHA National Homebrew Competition in American IPA. Chase's IPA is a bit of a hybrid with a look back at the West Coast with some "new" New England flair.
