Notes: Obtaining the enzyme extract:
after 30 min at 60 C pull and filter 500 ml of wort. Cool it (possibly in an ice bath) and put aside. Use that enzymatic active wort to wake up the yeast and then add it to the beer along with the yeast. It will continue the breakdown of dextrins during primary fermentation.
NOTE: Don't bottle condition this beer unless you you know if the breakdown of dextrins is complete. |

Notes: Ref: Wiki Beer in Wales, an approximation of 14th Century Wales Ale.
Grains limited to 8lbs in a 4g boiling pot.
Don't 'squeeze' the grain bag to avoid sharp flavors; this is a more "bread-y style" from the historical transition from mead(honey) to agriculture(grains). Add all grains in 3g water at 160f, wrap in blanket for 1-2hrs, stirring every 20mins or so...iodine test for "doneness".
Liquid extract in the last 10 minutes of boil to keep SRM lighter.
Primary fermentation just 5 days at 60F (wrapped in a blanket)
Rack to secondary (5 gallon bucket with sealed lid*) to lightly carbonate in this "cask".
* Lid modified with a pick-up tube and valve such that Ale can be lightly carbonated and pressurized in the plastic 5g bucket for DIRECT serving. Yeast will re-pressurize the "cask" (if you don't drain too much of it in one serving). Siphoning to a Growler is also good to have in the 'fridge. A syringe can be used to "fluff" the head of the Ale in a glass (this was popularized with Guinness Stout for a time) Allegedly, Guiness has some history in Wales.....wiki
Forgive the Carapils; it provides longer lasting 'head' to compensate for the low, natural cask carbonation level.
The "Brown" gains are to achieve the Minimum SRM, since color is often darker than estimated when I brew....
