repurposing for huell melon pale ale. with updated water profile results from ward, my water profile for this beer now looks a bit out of wack by the numbers but it worked well for the last beer so im just going to roll with it for now until i have time to figure out how to fix it.
==============================

This lutra is taking forever. Tonight its 10 brix which is like 1026 and 4.6%. Tastes sweet. Still bubbling smh
==============================
2/3/2022
measured 1060 OG i think i got more than 5.5 gallons. i accidentally grained into my entire volume of hot liquor. after mash i sparged a little with about 1.5 or 2 gallons of cold water. pre boil vol was like 8.5 gallons
==============================

revamping summer madness for this beer which will feature mighty axe julius hops instead of cascade. going with lutra again.

==============================

last week measured 1013 FG for 4.8%abv. but it does not taste that light. nice body and carapils flavor, also the dry hop was faint but nice. could maybe use more dry hop but in the interest of keeping it light and cheap and not-session-ipa, i think its perfect just like this.
==============================
9/1/2021 - brew day
Not too confident on 70% eff dropping to 60, bumping 2row from 975 to 1150. Should do better with water but i think I'm gonna use tap and leave out acid
==============================
7/22/2021
Just had Port City Essential Pale Ale recently which has to be the tastiest pale ale on the planet...at very least it is one of my absolute favorite beers. this time it strikes me that it has a lot of not bitter hop flavor and decent backbone while still being 5.5%.

Their website says 35ibu so im knocking down the warrior contribution from 0.75 to 0.4oz. Adding more cascade in the flameout and dry hop (1oz-->2oz)

consider going 3oz in dry hop. maybe some pilsner malt or something else to add more malt backbone. vienna? but the carapils might be fine. at least to start.

need to review water. would like to use tap and adjust but unsure rn, been having off mash pH readings and low efficiency.

Notes: Chocolate and vanilla oatmeal stout. Intended to be similar in flavour to Amundsen ZYGoat, however this is a lower ABV version.

Raw cacao nibs added at boil -10 mins to add dark chocolate hints.

Roasted cacao nibs and vanilla pods soaked in vodka and added to primary after 7 days. Added via gas hole to minimise oxidation. V. mild chocolate hints prior to this, v. strong afterwards. Nibs in boil seemed to add nothing significant.

V. bitter at the start, much less pronounced at the end.

Cold crashed 2 days before end of primary (2 weeks total).

SG = 1.063

Notes: This was definitely a fun and challenging one to make. The goal was a sour ale that gave you the feel of drinking a milkshake and I think we accomplished just that. Final gravity did finish at 1.027 so it was a nice, thick mouthfeel. Couple of things to note...

The vanilla is listed at 10 beans. We used vanilla extract from Beanilla and on their website, they have a conversion table that states 1 tbsp of the extract is equivalent to 1 vanilla bean. We used 10 tbsp of the vanilla extract.

With the dry hop, the hop varieties were ok, but not 100% complimentary to the fruit. I think I'd pull out the lotus and stick with citra and huell melon in the future. The dry hop equated to about .8oz / gal and I think I'd also drop that to maybe .5oz / gal.

When it was done, we felt it was a good fruited sour but it was no milkshake sour. So to get that milkshake feel, we backsweetened in the keg with truvia. It took about 96g of truvia per 5 gallon keg to get the sweetness level that we wanted.

Upon initial taste, your palate is hit with the sweetness from the truvia. Mid sip before you swallow, you get hit with the fruit. On the backend and after you swallow, you get the vanilla and the tartness from the lactobacillus.

Notes: Dry hop 1/2 ounce each of Simcoe. Amarillo, Cascade hops and 1 ounce of Centennial hops for 10 days post fermentation. Optional yeast choices: Fermentis US 05 dry yeast or WYeast American Ale 1056. I recommend dry hopping this one with pellets over whole hops cones. If you go the whole cone route, cut everything in half and go 5-7 days. Cheers!

Notes: Aroma reminiscent of Unibru's Trois Pistoles. High alcohol content comes through with smooth and sweet aftertaste notes notes on the tongue (and lips). Pours murky, muddy brown with a good tan head.

HOP NOTES: Recipe calls for 42g of Styrian Goldings, Fuggles, or Willamette hops (boiling) to achieve 7.5HBU (210MBU).

>Boil the malt extract and boiling hops for 60mins
>Add Irish moss for final 10mins
>Aarate wort very well
>Pitch yeast at 21C
>Ferment at 21C for about 1 week or when fermentation shows signs of calming and stopping
>Prime with sugar and bottle or keg when fermentation is complete
>Although this brew will be ready for your enjoyable indulgence 2-4 weeks after bottling, it ages well at cellar temperatures.
