Notes: Make a yeast starter by stirring yeast, nutrient, and 1 Tbsp dextrose in 1 cup of water in a sanitized container. Cover and shake until dissolved.

Heat 3 gallons of water to 120 degrees, turn off heat and add honey, potassium carbonate, and lemon peels. Stir until honey is dissolved. Rack to primary fermenter and cool to room temp.

Pitch yeast once must falls below 80 degrees. Agitate heavily for 3-5 minutes and airlock.
Repeat agitation several times over the course of the next 24 hours.

At first sign of fermentation, add 1 tsp each of nutrient and DAP.
Repeat 2 days later.

Wait for fermentation to stop (aprox 3 weeks) and rack to secondary.
*at this time, you can add any fruit/spice/herb if desired (make sure to boil it!)

Leave mead to age in secondary for 2 months. Rack to bottling bucket, bottle and age for a minimum of 6 months.

Notes: 22 liter kezdővíz, 13 liter máslóvíz. 2 literrel az ajánlott 28 literes gyűjtés fölött.
29 liter gyűjtve, pont jó is. Vigyázni kell a kifutással.

OG 12

sok volt a keserűség, jöhet még egy kis test, szín és aroma.

Notes: Protein Rest 131°F 10min
Mash Step 144°F 40min
Mash Step 160°F 30min
Saccharification 168°F 10min
Mash Out 168°F 10min

Knockout a few degrees lower than your primary temperature, allow it to climb to 49F.

Primary 49°F 21 days
Secondary 49°F 14 days
Tertiary 32°F 7 days
Aging 33°F 14 days

If you'd like to mimic Bierstadt's use of a float tank, knockout into a fermenter, pitch your yeast and then 12 hours later transfer your beer into a new fermentation vessel, leaving behind about 1c of wort from the bottom. This helps clarify the beer and leave some of the weaker yeast behind.

49F is the suggested primary temperature for first-use yeast. Subsequent generations can be fermented at a 47F primary temperature, as they are more battle-tested.

After 2 weeks in the primary, you can rack into a corny keg. Keep at 49F for another week and allow some pressure to build in the keg.

After week 3, make sure your beer passes a diacetyl test (warm up a small sample and smell/taste for butter). Once it passes diacetyl, slowly lower the beer, dropping 1F every other day until you reach 40F. Leave at 40F for a week.

Then slowly lower 1F per day to get to 33F. Rest here at least two weeks. After 2 weeks you may see diminished returns, but if you're patient, further resting can continue to improve the beer.

*Note the ABV and IBUs listed in this recipe are a bit higher than what are listed on the label of the beer. Ashleigh shared with me that this is due to lab tested results, which come back a little lower in ABV and IBUs. She says to use the #s that I provided here, roughly 37 IBUs and a 1.047SG - 1.008FG. Brewing software may not estimate such a low final gravity, but shoot for 80%+ apparent attenuation on this recipe.
