Notes: 190g Ginger grated plus a whole sliced nutmeg baked in the oven for 5 min on baking paper to remove oils. Added at start of boil.

Day 6 added about 100g of sliced ginger plus a whole sliced nutmug (baked) in a sock soaked in starsan as yeast activity had driven off ginger aroma.

Pretty much perfect balance of flavours. Good biscuit plenty of ginger and a hint of nutmeg.

Notes: 1. Finely (and I really do mean finely) dice your ginger and put into a steeping bag.

2. Cut your 6 lemons and 3 limes into quarters, squeezing each one into the water. Once squeezed, throw the slices in the water.

3. Add your 3 cinnamon sticks and 3 cloves.

4. Boil for 60 minutes.

5. Once 60 minutes has been reached, remove all of your steeping items and add your sugar. Boil an additional 10 minutes to sterilize the sugar.

Note: I found that by leaving the steeping items in the water, they tend to absorb the sugar, thereby affecting your gravity.

6. Dilute the wort with your other 2 gallons of water to chill it quicker. Aerate, then pitch your yeast.

7. Take continuous gravity readings, and stop around 1.011 or 1.010. The higher the gravity, the sweeter and more syrupy it will be. 1.011 is a good cross between sweet with just enough dryness.

8. Once FG is acheived, bottle using a plastic bottle to tell where your carbonation is at. Once carbonation has been acheived, pasteurize and you're done.

Other notes: Ginger and citrus slows the fermentation process, this can take up to a month or more, have patience and you'll get there.

I opted to use a champaigne yeast, as EC-1118 has almost no flavor profile, and has a huge ideal temperature range. This makes it easier to make this year-round.

1) Water prep:
- 36L of RO water in G40, add water agents: Gypsum, Lactic acid, Calcium Chloride Actual pH : 6.99 (RO water is 7.76)

- Separate 14L for sparge and put in Klerestein heater

2) Make sure plates and grain bin are in G40.
Heat water in G40 , 20L to 67ºC (pre heat it at 69C)

-- Need about 4 hours after this.

3) Add grain slowly, stirring, add recirculation and cover. 1h
pH at 10 min was 5.92. Adjusted with 9.5ml lactic acid to bring to 5.41 at minute 20.

4) Heat sparge water to 78ºC for effective 76ºC sparge

5) Lift grain basket and slowly add sparge water

6) Bring to a boil and do hop additions 60 min. Irish Moss, 15 min before ending the boil. Let it cool to 77C and Whirpool hop.

(Meassure pH at 20C) 5.78 OG 1.06

7) Transfer to clean fermenter through counterflow chiller, and Oxygenate

8) Pitch yeast after oxygenating

9) Ferment at 20C ( Brewbrain) Brewbrain is failing, producing very low readings too fast. After a while (probably high Kreusen) it went back to real readings.

--- Dry Hopping with Grainfather , sanitized exterior and hop container. Opening top lid.

10) Dry hop after 2 days of active fermentation (added 5g of dextrose with the hops to aid with O2 removal)

11) Dry hop once fermentation has reached near FG but still active (added 5g of dextrose and 1.5g of Ascorbic acid with the hops to aid with O2 removal)

Addition rate is around 50 mg/l (ppm) as long as the free SO2 is maintained at 30 mg/l (ppm). A

--
12) After 3 days ready to crash cold

13) Crash cold at 5-7ºC for a minimum of 3 days
14) Prime and bottle , flush bottles with CO2

1L is lost during the process
3.8L are put into the uKeg for force carbonation.

15L left to bottle at 0.75L per bottle should yield 20 bottles.

Prep for 22 bottles.

Per bottle.
Corn Sugar : 5.1 g x 22 = 112g
Ascorbic acid : 2g

Add dextrose, then water to achieve 440ml solution.
Bring to boil to sanitize.
Cool down a bit and add ascorbic acid.

Dose 20ml per bottle and let it cool down.

Fill bottle with spigot and flush with CO2. Cap each bottle just after.

Condition 1 week and check color for oxydation and carbonation.

Notes: Taking a stab at a Viking-age raw ale. Sanitation needs to be 100%, Sanitize everything the liquor and wort will come into or possible contact with.
Full volume steep is required.
-Steep grains first, Remove and squeeze excess liquid/drain into kettle
-Add extract
-Add Juniper tips and Meadowsweet(in a sachet or hop bag) to kettle and bring kettle to 180, start timer. Remove Juniper at 30 minutes
-Add hops and kill flame and chill to 80F, pitch Clarity Ferm and Kveik.

Notes: Steep grains in 2 gallons of water for 45 minutes at 155 degrees.

Remove grain bag and let all liquid run out, then pour hot water over the bag until all sugars are in the pot.

Add spring water up to 4.5 gallons and bring to a full boil.

Add all your extract and stir it in.

Then add your hops and boil for 60 minutes.

Take off heat, add water up to 5 gallons and cool to 65 degrees.

Transfer the wort to a fermentor add yeast, and top it with an airlock.

Beer is ready to bottle once fermentation ends.
