Notes: SINGLE DECOCTION MASHING INSTRUCTIONS

Use 4G stainless kettle for sparge heating
Use smaller nonstick kettle for decoction

1) Mash-in to hit 140F and rest 5min

2) Remove 1qt of thick mash per pound of grist (approx 1/3 of wet grain volume)
14lbs of grain, means remove 14qts (3.5g) of mash
Cover main mash

3) Heat decoction while main mash rests
Heat to 155F and rest 5min
Bring to boil while stirring constantly (takes prob 10min)
Boil while stirring for 5min

4) Return decoction to main mash until it hits 156F (scoop & stir) for 20min.
If needed, allow remaining decoction to cool separately, and add periodically to maintain the main mash temp

5) Mash out at 170.6F

***
Ferment at 10C (50F) until hitting FG (watch the TILT !)
Pressure transfer to keg and lager in keezer ON CO2 for 4 weeks.

HeadBrewer says:
Without giving out too much info, here are some basics on Dunkel...
85% Munich malt 5% Pils – the other 10% are several higher color malts.
13P OG (1.053)
18 IBU, one addition at boil begin of German Perle

Single decoction
Ferment at 10C (50F)
Total fermentation and lager time – 5 weeks

German Lager yeast – we don’t use this strain, but I would recommend 34/70. I don’t know what Wyeast or White labs call it, but they will recognize the number and have it in their bank under another name.

Pitch 15-20MM cells/mL – that means if you brew 5 gallons, you should pitch about 1 gallon of yeast starter. I would aggressively aerate the starter, let it fully ferment at room temp, cool it down to 10C/50F, let it floc out. On brew day, decant the beer supernatant off the yeast and add about 12 oz of sterile wort, pitch into your batch at high kraeusen. (starter yeast supernatant has been aerated and may cause off flavor since you are pitching so much into the new batch of wort) The yeast starter should not be warmer than the chilled wort or you will shock the yeast. Because you need a lot of yeast to pitch cold, dry yeast is not a bad option. Pitch more dry yeast packets than you would with an ale. Too little yeast is a bigger problem than too much. You could also add the dry yeast to a small amount of wort on brew day and pitch at high kraeusen.

Notes: Mill the grains and mash at 156°F (69°C) for 30 minutes (or as long it takes to pass the iodine test). Vorlauf until your runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains with 168°F (76°C) water and top up as necessary to get about 6.6 gallons (25 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 75 minutes, following the schedule for the boil hops.

After the boil, chill the wort to about 64–66°F (18–19°C). Aerate well, add the yeast nutrient, and pitch plenty of healthy yeast. Ferment at 68°F (20°C) until it reaches final gravity, then give it 2 more days to clear diacetyl. Chill to 42°F (6°C) if possible (if not, proceed at 68°F (20°C), but reduce the oak chips by half). Prepare and sanitize a secondary fermentor and place the oak chips and whole-cone hops in a weighted hop bag. Purge the secondary fermentor with CO2 before racking beer into it and adding the first round of dry hops. If possible (i.e., using a conical), dump the cone after the first 3 days, then add the second round of dry hops. After 3 more days (if possible), dump the hops again. Allow up to 2 weeks to clear diacetyl (see below), then crash, package, and carbonate.

BREWER’S NOTES
Very important: On the day of the first dry hop, take a gravity reading of the beer and note this in your brew log. This exercise will be particularly helpful as it relates to hop creep. Three days after the second dry hop, take a gravity reading and note it. Do the same the following day. Once you go 2 days in a row where your gravity has not dropped from the secondary fermentation from hop creep, you can proceed with bottling or kegging. Depending on your conditions, you might have to wait up to 2 weeks to clear the diacetyl from hop creep. (For more about hop creep and testing for diacetyl, see Brewing with Hops: Don’t Get Creeped Out and Hunting for Diacetyl.)

About those bittering hops: There is a limit to how much alpha acid can be isomerized in beer and also to how much can be perceived. While the calculated IBUs for this recipe might be about 195, a spectrometer reading measured them closer to 80. (The yeast also take up a large portion of isomerized alpha acids, which is why the yeast from an IPA fermentation tastes so bitter.)

Notes: Finished at 1.074 @ 75 degf
Brix @ 18.3
Wlp001 Cali ale in 1st ferment
Wlp008 East coast in 2nd
Mashed in @ 164
Mash dropped to 150, had to increase heat for 5 min

Bottled. East coast 1.020
Cali 1.014

5/8/16 tasting notes: East Coast a bit more funky than Cali. Boozy, syrupy, lots of caramel. Will come together better with age. Possibly a stronger hop presence would balance the sweetness.
Probably could let the east coast ferment a little further.
