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: 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: Modified version of a Spotted Cow clone recipe. I'm not a big fan of the cream ale style so was looking for something established that I might actually enjoy drinking. Or someone will.

OG recipe here (unaltered notes below):
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/672/spotted-clown-new-glarus-spotted-cow-clone-

-----------
pitch 1600 ml starter at 68 degrees

Mash in the 152 to 154 range for a bit of body. You do not want the beer to thin.

I've made this brew 6 times. Last batch was Mar 6 2014. If you have ever tried this brew from wisconsin, (New Glarus) brewery this recipe comes close to what Spotted Cow is all about. They claim it is a Farmhouse Ale but do not use Saison yeast.

After extensive research this is what I came up with for a recipe.The are secretive about the yeast they use, but the consensus is, it is a Kolsch yeast either Wyeast 2565 or WLP 029 and I think it is 029. My preference is 2565. Wyeast 2565 is my house yeast.

Ferment at 58-60 degrees with Wyeast 2565 or 62-65 with WLP 029

I've had good compliments on this brew from others. I live on the Wisconsin border and they don't sell it in Illinois, for some reason they will not ship it to this state. Will update as needed but for now this recipe is a pretty solid clone.

I made 11 gals (2 batches) in march 2014 I cant keep it in the house fast enough. SWMBO and her friends love it. With the temps soaring in Chicago this is a great brew for summer.From kettle to glass is about 5 weeks so turnover is quick. Good luck if you try it, shouldn't be disappointed.

Made batch 7 (5 gal) on 6-14-14 and used Mt. Hood for flavoring (.5) and aroma (.5) I think the domestic hops are closer to the original flavor. -enjoy-

Made batch #8 2-28-2015 no changes should be ready to drink mid April

Cheers
