Notes: This started out as an IPA but I don't think the hop profile was enough to call it that. What it turned out to be was a pretty darn good Pale Ale so I changed the category I listed it in. My OG was 1.058 little low from listing final was 1.011 ended at around 6 ABV. I'll be making this again.

Notes: Start fermentation at 64 and let it warm up to 75.
Dry hop .5 oz each of Kent and Styrian in each fermentor for the last week before kegging.

I think with the long cool mash, it will attenuate a bit lower than recipe prediction, and end up at 6-6.5%.

Notes: ==================================
1/6/2021
took the detre clone recipe and doubled it (all malt amounts, all hop amounts) with the following mods :
* subbed out belgian candi sugar for 2.5 lb honey
* subbed out wyeast belgian ardennes 3522 for wyeast trappist high gravity 3787
* added .75 lb acid malt for pH balance based on henrico county water (guestimate)
* changed yeast attenuation from default 76% to predicted 85%. it might end up being higher than that, usually is higher for highly fermentable beers with simple sugars. for the honey tripel it was in the 90s. (i am not completely sure i am using this attenuation knob correctly but basically after the brew is done I go back and adjust this percentage until the calculated FG matches the measured FG)

issues/concerns :
* how much yeast is needed. use yeast calculator to decide how many packs to buy and/or how big a starter to try to build
* even though the hops are doubled, i think the IBU is too low for a beer of this gravity. It might be ok for short turnaround for contest but if done right I think it deserves a higher IBU which will help it stay balanced as it ages.
* i could see the efficiency on this beer being bad. currently set to 55 but i wouldnt be surprised if it is 50 or even less if we do 100% all grain. should consider reducing the base malt and using some DME which is more reliable / predictable
** we could consider boiling extra long too. Last time we boiled all in one giant pot but if we boiled in separate pots we could probably boil off more volume and get a better higher OG
* aside from the question of "can our mash tuns fit 20-somethin lbs grain", we could consider just buying and splitting a 50lb sack of belgian pale malt - not sure if OG has that but they def have sacks of pilsner malt which would be similar (but have to boil at least 90 mins)

other items we talked about :
* oaking with rum and/or whiskey soaked oak cubes

the regular raison d'etre recipe in brewers friend :

original detre clone recipe from American Homebrewers Association : https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/dogfish-head-raison-detre-clone/

==================================
To brew this Dogfish Head Raison D’Etre clone, mash grains at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes. Mash out at 158°F (70° C) for 10 minutes. Sparge and bring to a boil, adding hops at specified intervals.

Halfway through boil, remove two cups of wort from kettle and soak raisins for 10-20 minutes. Puree in a blender and add back to kettle 10 minutes from the end of the boil, along with the candi sugar. Shut off the boil and add aromatic hops.

Chill to 70°F (21°C), aerate or oxygenate well and pitch ale yeast slurry. Ferment at 70-75°F (21-24°C) until fermentation is complete.

Notes: Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix immediately after pitching yeast.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix 24 hours after fermentation begins.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix 48 hours after fermentation begins.
Add ¾ teaspoon yeast energizer/nutrient mix after 30% of the sugar has been depleted.

Special Instructions / Notes:
Berries were frozen and then mostly thawed. I squished the bags of fruit to break them up a bit and used a large mouth funnel to get them into the carboy.

I did not heat the honey at all, just dumped right into carboy. I heated up some of the water I was using for top off and used that warm water to rinse the honey out of the jars and into the carboy. Used a paint stir bar on a drill to mix honey and water (and oxygenate). Added berries and gave a gentle stir to mix everything

Fermented at 68 degrees for three to four weeks with staggered nutrient additions

Cap management is important for releasing toxic CO2 and preventing temperature buildup below the cap. I swirled the carboy once in the morning and once in the evening for about 5 days to mix the fruit cap back down and release CO2

You will lose a lot of mead to the berries. I chilled the carboy down, racked to a secondary off the berries, chilled that carboy down, let set for a week or so, then kegged. This mead can plug a keg line easily if you're not careful.

Can taste a bit like children's cough syrup early on but eventually smoothes out, I haven't been able to keep any longer than a year before drinking it all.

Notes: Don't know what kinda seeping grains i received in my kit, some really dark and some that kinda looked like wheat and or mixed with rye?
Seeped for 45 minutes at 155 degrees

Added half a handful of my Dad's hops at 15 minutes
