Notes: 7/21/2021 - Haven't brewed yet. Recipe is complete and will be brewing 7/29/2021.
09/29/2021 - Beer is kegged and has been serving. This came out pretty solid, although not what we were shooting for.
For "kettle" sours, we have stopped souring in the kettle. We don't use hops during the boil and we pitch lacto and yeast simultaneously into the fermenter.
Once fermentation was complete, we added the apples and pectic enzyme. Transferred the beer to kegs where we added 3 tbsp vanilla extract per 5 gallon keg. (Ended up being 4.5 tbsp total for the whole batch).
It's a solid beer and if it was called Spiced Apple Sour Ale, it'd be spot on to it's name.
The vanilla needs to be increase to 4 tbsp per 5 gallon keg next time to increase the "a la mode" aspect of this.
Additionally, it's lacking that bready/crusty/granola flavor to impart the flavors of the pie crust. Tried to do that with the victory and the honey malt but it needs more. Perhaps graham crackers in secondary? Definitely a delicious beer though, just missed the mark slightly.
Head retention is pretty poor on this as well. Pours with a nice head but fades in about 30 seconds. |

Notes: - Homebrew store ran out of UK pale so had to substitute some Maris Otter
- Brewed on 10/6/18
- Expecting mash efficiency of 70% (vs. typical ~75%-79% for smaller beers) which implies a pre boil gravity of 1.078
- Add brewing salts and lactic acid to the strike water prior to doughing-in
- Initial PH was X.X vs. 5.37 expected. **Tested PH meter and need to recalibrate. Can't rely on reading which I believe was showing too high.
- Mash temp fluctuated a bit but was able to settle it at ~154F
- Hit 17.9 plato pre boil gravity which converts to 1.074 vs. 1.078 target so 66% mash efficiency vs. 70% expected. **For big beers going forward I should not expect better than 66-67% mash efficiency.
- Original gravity reading was 23.6 plato which converts to 1.099
- After boil had ~6.25 gallons in the kettle and ~5.75 gallons made it into the fermenter
- Pitched 2 smack packs of wyeast 1728; started fermentation at 64F and held here.
- Packaged on 10/17/18 and final gravity reading was 1.027 so attenuation was 73% vs. 71% expected.
- This beer scored a 40 and got second place in it's category in the Square Kegs Winterbrew 2019 competition |
