Notes: - Rinse rice.
- Bring 3 gallons of distilled water to a boil in the kettle. Using the steel mesh basket, add all the rice to the boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook the rice for 30 minutes (or longer, if necessary). After rice is cooked, remove the basket and top off water to reach 6.72 gallons. Heat/cool as required to reach a mash temp of 147°F. Remember to factor the cooked rice temperature when calculating a strike temperature!
- Check pH before adding lactic acid, I'm not sure how the cooked rice water will affect pH.
- BOIL FOR ONLY 30 MINUTES!!!
- Pressure ferment at 68°F @ 15psi.
*** This recipe took 1st Place in the International Dark Lager category at the 2024 Calvert County Fair! *** |

A lager fermentation consists of these 3 phases:
primary fermentation : main fermentation of the fermentable extract. The bulk of the CO2 and alkohol are created here. Chill the beer to at/below pitching temperature, 9–10°C.
Pitch the yeast and wait 24–48 hours for fermentation to begin. Maintain the temperature for two weeks.
maturation : the yeast is allowed to clean up some of its byproducts like diacetyl (butterscotch flavor) and acetaldehyde (green apple flavor). After active fermentation slows, raise the temperature over several days to 18°C. Allow the beer to sit there for two or three days to clean up the diacetyl.
cold stabilization (lagering) : the low temperature causes haze forming proteins and polyphenols come out of solution and drop out of suspension. There is also a mellowing of flavors and some formation of esters happening. The latter becomes only significant after more than 12 weeks. Lower the temperature to 1°C to 2°C by reducing temp. 1°C per day. |

Notes: Pilsner was used merely to make up the pale malt grain bill as there was not enough maris otter.
26/4/15 Have brewed this once (22/4/15) and it appears to have just missed target ABV by 0.5. So, not bad.
Aroma so far is roasty and coffeeish, maybe with a bit of chocolate. Still very green and a little harsh. Bottling in a week's time and giving four weeks conditioning. |
