Notes: Step by Step
One week before brew day, get a WLP007 yeast starter going. When starter activity slows, decant the spent wort and add fresh wort.On brew day, crush the grains and place in two steeping bags. Steep the bags at 155 °F (68 °C) in 16 quarts (15 L) of water for 20 minutes. Rinse the grains with 2 quarts (2 L) of 170 °F (77 °C) hot water. Add dried malt extract (DME) and table sugar. Boil for 60 minutes, adding the hops at the specified times. Chill the wort to 70 °F (21 °C) and add water to achieve 5 gallons (19 L) of wort. Aerate the wort and add WLP007 starter (decanting the spent wort first). When fermentation slows, take a gravity reading and add WLP099 starter (if needed) to achieve a final specific gravity of 1.035. Keg or bottle carbonate, aiming for a carbonation level of 2.0–2.2 volumes of CO2. Once carbonated, condition at cellar temperature for several months. Flavor should peak at about one year and remain there for at least another year.
Tips for Success:
Pitching plenty of healthy yeast is paramount for a high gravity brew. When in doubt, pitch more. Be patient with the fermentation and conditioning process. Beer doesn't have a schedule. For bottle carbonation, pitch fresh yeast at bottling time if the WLP099 wasn't needed during the brew day. Give the bottles adequate time to carbonate. This beer needs to age, anyway. You'll thank me later for saving it until its peak. If you would like, try aging this beer in a bourbon barrel. How long to barrel condition is a matter of individual taste. Our club likes a full bourbon flavor, so we age the beer for several months. We don't worry about temperature. The barrel's alive, and varying temperatures allow the wood to expand and contract, imparting those wonderful oak and bourbon flavors. |

Measurements:
Boil gravity 47pts
Original gravity 56 pts
Final gravity 17 pts
28/03/2016 - brew day
01/04/2016 - no more airlock activity after 4 days of fermentation. waiting some time for yeast to clean up before cold crashing and kegging...
5/04/2016 - cold crashing at 0 celcius
13/04/2016 - kegging day. The beer tastes very good even before carbonation. Moving the keg to condition at 0 celsius.
24/04/2016 - sampled the beer, it's good but a bit hazy. might try gelatin to clear it up in the serving keg. |

Notes: Did a 1.5L starter
Will pitch the starter and an additional pack of yeast.
Lagered for 5 weeks at 34F
Finished at 1.021= 4.5%, don't think I pitched enough yeast.
Kegged on 5/2/2016 with 30psi, shook for a couple minutes and let it sit. Will shake every day at 30 psi for 4 days then see.
Tastes really good! easy drinking. chococlatey and roasty with a clean finish.
Next time i brew this i will use less dark malts..
