Notes: Adjusted my first brown recipe just a little bit. I removed .46lb of special b. I lowered the amount of Crystal 60 and boosted the victory in hopes of adding additional nuttiness. I also added a slight bit of chocolate malt to give it just a hint of dark chocolate that should go well with the nuttiness.
I will split this 5 gallon batch to make 2.5 gallons of Northern Brown and 2.5 gallons of Christmas ale. For the Christmas ale I will add cherry, vanilla and possibly some cocoa nibs to the secondary. Sounds tasty.
Brew Day: 10/06/17
I ended up nailing my OG but had about a gallon left in the kettle after filling the carboy with 5 gallons. My efficiency was around 70% this time which is great. Mash temperature was very accurate (after an hour it had only fallen 1 degree ending at 153). |

Notes: I used the yeast from a prior batch of beer. I pitched the yeast slurry in from a primary rather than just putting this beer on top of all the trub and old yeast cells.
I brought the temperature up to 154 degrees and then added grain. I mashed it for 55 minutes with the recirculation pump going and stirred it once during the mash. I went 10 minutes long as I had to bring strike water up a little.
I used 2.5 gallons of sparge water. It was 178.0 degrees when I started. This brought it to 6 gallons in the brewer so I lost about 1 gallon of water to the grain.
Reading at the start of boil was 1.042 in refractometer. It jumped up to 1.050 when it cooled in the pipet. According to website, 1.042 at 159 degrees should be 1.060. https://www.brewersfriend.com/hydrometer-temp/
I added some fermcap to the Robobrew. 1st edition of hops was 30 minutes into boil and was a 1.5 packs of Hallertau Blanc Aroma hops. I used my Hop Spider for the hops. I read online to dip it up and down a few times during the boil so I did that.
Second addition of hops was 75 minutes in. I also added a teaspoon of Irish Moss to the hop spider and put in my chiller.
Looks like about 5 gallons in the RoboBrew after boiling. When I added it to the yeast in the fermenter, it was close to 5 gallons and I only added 1 quart of water and shook it up and took a reading.
Initial Gravity is 1.052 @ 72 degrees F. Potential Alcohol is 6.4%.
29 December 2019, 1230 – Temperature is down to 60 degrees and some sign of fermentation going on. A small krausen forming on top.
30 December 2019, 0730 – Temperature is 58 degrees. Rapid fermentation and krausen on top.
23 January 2020 – temperature is 56 degrees. I am putting it in a keg and putting the keg in the refrigerator. I did bleed off the air on top with a little CO2, but pulled the pressure relief valve before putting it in the refrigerator. I will force carbonate it after I wake up to give it a diacetyl rest. I read that carbonating too soon after moving to a keg can give a flavor of buttered popcorn. https://www.brewcabin.com/force-carbonation/
Final Gravity is 1.016 @ 56 degrees F. Potential Alcohol is 2%. Total alcohol is 6.4-2.0=4.4%.
I force carbonated with CO2 at 20 psi for 3 days at a temperature of 38 degrees. The beer is good and has a smokey, bacon flavor to it. |

Notes: inspired by yellow rose by lone pint brewery in texas. theirs is almost 7% but i didnt want to go that high, want more sessionable but also i dont think i can mash that much malt being that my efficiency is pretty low.
their ibu is 62. i considered making mine about the same - in which case my bu/gu would be about 1.02. want it hoppier than maya the beer (which was ibu50 and bu/gu 0.78). but also dont want a hop bomb - want it to taste like a flavorful pale ale, like the original. so im dropping ibu down to about 50 and bu/gu will be around 90. |

Notes: Gjæres i gjæringskar tre uker mellom 8-14 grader. Flaskes og modnes i minimum fire uker før den nytes avkjølt.
Brukte M76 Bavarian Lager fra Mangrove Jack. Fantes ikke i oversikten fra brewers friend.
Satt i kjøleskap for å få ned temp til 10 grader før jeg har i gjæren og rister for oksygen. Gjæret på 10 grader.
