Notes: 4/11/15 Started with 7 gal of the Howard Family 1030 maple syrup final running, equivalent to 5.5 pounds of the malt, but there was no malt, just the maple syrup dregs from the boiling pan, reduced to about 4.5 gal and then added the 10 pounds of Banyai honey so that final batch was about 5.25 gal 1 tablespoon of yeast energiser
Measured OG was pretty close to the 1120 predicted. |

Notes: Börja 24-48 h innan själva bryggningen. Ta fram den krossade malten, kastrull, bakterieröret, termometer och spraymalten. Du behöver inte sterilisera något inför det här steget. Börja med att värma upp 1,7 l vatten i kastrullen till 70 grader. Häll i den krossade malten och stäng av plattan. Lägg på locket och låt kastrullen stå i ca. 15 min. Sila bort den krossade malten med hjälp av en kökssil mellan två kastruller eller byttor. Gör silprocessen några gånger tills du har en ren vätska utan krossade maltrester i. Fyll på med kallvatten. Du ska ha totalt ca. 4,5 liter vätska i kastrullen. Häll i spraymalten i kastrullen och vispa tills alla klumpar har löst sig. Sätt på locket på kastrullen och vrid max på spisen och vänta tills vörten börjar koka. Stäng av plattan.
Kyl ned vörten i en vask fylld med kallvatten och is/kylklampar. Vörten ska ned till 40 grader. När vörten har nått önskad temperatur skakar du bakterieröret ordentligt och häller i hela innehållet i kastrullen. Slå om en handduk om kastrullen så du isolerar värmen i kastrullen. Kastrullen ska helst hålla en temperatur mellan 20-40 grader. Förslagsvis så ställer man in kastrullen i ugnen med endast ugnslampan på. Eller så hittar man något annat lite extra varmt ställe där kastrullen får stå.
Nu härjar bakterierna fritt i din kastrull som har stått och surat mellan 24-48 h. Alla bakterier måste dödas genom att koka upp vörten återigen till 100 grader. På så sätt kan bakterierna inte kontaminera resten av din utrustning och du kan fortsätta att använda den till andra bryggningar. Sätt spisplattan på max och låt vörten koka upp. När allt kokar häller du i humlen. Häll försiktigt, det finns risk att det kokar över om kastrullen är liten. Sänk värmen och låt småputtra i 15 minuter.
Nu ska allt kylas ner till 21 grader.
När vätskan kommit ner till 21 grader är det dags att hälla i vörten i jäskärlet. Använd din tratt och sil så att du får ner en ren vört i jäskärlet.
Häll i hälften av jästen ner i jäskärlet.
Sterilisera dina händer och skölj dem i kallt vatten. Använder du VWP rekommenderar vi att använda diskhandskar. Sätt en hand för öppningen på jäskärlet och skaka kärlet ordentligt i någon minut. Detta för att luft ska blandas in i vörten och reagera med jästen.
Fyll på med vatten i jäsröret till max-nivån. Sätt fast jäsröret i silikonproppen. Tryck försiktigt silikonproppen tillsammans med jäsröret ned i jäskärlet.
Ställ jäskärlet på något mörkt ställe (17-25 grader) i ca. 14 dagar. Det gör inget om du råkar gå över några dagar. Inom första dygnen kommer det sätta igång och bubbla i jäsröret. Det kan vara tätt mellan bubblorna och det kan ta lång tid mellan bubblorna. Det viktiga är ATT det bubblar, det betyder att jäsprocessen är igång.
Efter ca. 7 dagar i jäskärlet tycker vi det är lämpligt att smaksätta ölet med bär och frukt. Vi rekommenderar att smaksätta med hallon och mango. Generellt kan man säga att det är bra att smaksätta med runt 100-200 gr. bär/frukt per liter. Använd tex. frysta bär från livsmedelsbutikerna. Se till att all frukt som blandas ned i vörten är i puréform och att den har kokat innan så den inte innehåller onödiga bakterier. Använd med fördel en desinfecerad tratt när du häller ned frukt/bär-purén i din vört. Låt kärlet stå ytterligare 7 dagar.
Vänta 7 dagar till och flaska. |

Notes: 1) Treated water and heated strike water to 160. Hit 154 which was over my 152 target. Rode out the 154 and it stayed around that and 153 for the hour. Mashed out to 170 holding the bag off the bottom.
Ph: 5.5
2) Uneventful boil, hopped as planned. Cooled using wort chiller and overshot 150F as it cooled very quickly. Not worried about the lower temps for the whirlpool, but lower than I wanted at ~125. 30 min whirlpool then continued cooling to lowest I could at 80.
OG: 1.062-4 <- hard to tell on the hydrometer but basically right on
3) Transferred to primary and moved to temp controlled chamber to chill to 68. Aerated using a pump and diffusion stone for 30 then pitched ballooned activated wyeast smackpack.
4) Fermentation going very well 12 hours in. After 4 days from pitch I dry hopped stage 1 and pulled a gravity sample. Gravity was at target.
5) Continued fermenting until 8 days from pitch and pulled another sample that read 1.012, so it hit below target. Sanple tasted fantastic!
6) Began cold crash and kegged at 10 days from pitch, adding the second dry hop to the keg in a hop screen. Carb'd at 2.2 vols for a week.
Taste is incredible with very milky smooth mouthfeel. Low bitterness and very aromatic and tasty. Highly recommend this recipe. The ella and Vic are subtle in the taste and the ekuanot blasts through with strong aroma. My best beer yet. |

Notes: Produces a good tripel with just enough coriander notes.
Be warned, WPL530 is insane. I fermented 3+ gallons in a 6 gallon fermentor and at one point saw 2.5+ gallons of krausen buildup.
I maintained 68 - 70 deg throughout the fermentation, I saw about an 85% apparent attenuation, not the 77.5% referenced above.
Primed with 4 oz of corn sugar. However, after 2 weeks in the bottle carbonation could be called "weak". Clearly this brew would benefit from fresh priming yeast.
So, this turned out odder than I wanted. Excellent flavor at first, was somewhat sweeter than I wanted. Also a little darker. |

Notes: This recipe is nearly the same recipe out of the John Palmer book - "Brewing Classic Styles".
Items I changed or added:
+Melanoidin malt - was not in original recipe
+Increased Honey Malt from 6oz to 8 oz
+Increased Bittering Hops from .75 oz to 1 oz
+The base malt was originally only British malt but I am a poor bastard and I didnt want to go that route so I split it up. It called for slightly more than a pound less than I have but wanted the gravity to be high and still be in style.
_____________________________________________
Tasting Notes:
3/25 - Let this beer sit for a while. I had tastes of it a month ago and it was still young and sweet. The malt really came into its own and was worth the wait. You get just a touch of the really dark caramel/crystal flavor with a lot of sweet bready taste from the Maris Otter and Honey Malt. Would make this again seasonally. |
