Notes: *The efficiency has been reduced to %70 due to usual decrease in efficiency that comes with brewing very high gravity beers. We can adjust this as needed.
*In regards to mash water volume, while many people go with 1.5 qts/lb of malt, we have always had success with a lower rate of 1 qt/lb. This may need to be adjusted.
*We have targeted a pre-boil volume of 16 bbls, but if evaporation is greater than this, let me know and we can adjust.
*Super moss/Whirlfloc have different usage rates. add at at rate that has been successful for Mare Island.
*Zinc usage rate has been increased due to increased gravity.
*Ferment at 66 degrees Fahrenheit. Ferment until final gravity doesn't change for at least 3 days in a row.
-Perform diacetyl test (notes to follow) daily until there is no diacetyl detected.
*After the beer is done fermenting, and passes a diacetyl test, drop the temperature of the tank to 35 degrees F. Allow to condition until the beer tastes ready.
*Hops can be substituted based on availability, though please consult with us before making substitution, as some varieties will not be appropriate to style.
*Hop quantity is based on Alpha acid indicated and a pre-boil volume of 16 bbls.

*Treat water as Mare Island does.

Notes: 30L starting water; preboiled to reduce bicarbonate but not much residue - poss not enough boiling and agitation time. next time add slaked lime, as boiling took too long anyway. added 3tsp CaCl and 1tsp MgSo4
split 20L for mash and 10L for sparge
20L strike water 70C for mash temp of 66
mash 66 for 60mins
sparge water 75C (set kettle at 70 to get 75; need to recalibrate)
boiled only for 30mins b4 hops additon as wanted some hot break for haze and litle more volume for fermenter after trub (large last time)
whirlpool for 20mins at 80C with 100g citra
postboil reading 23C 1056 so adjust temp +0.0016 so 1057.6
pitched around 6pm at 25C, hot day so couldn't get much lower before going into fermnter set at 18C
24hrs later VERY active fermentation, no blow over but boiling-like bubble frequency. 48hrs post pitch this slowed dramatically so took reading with tilt thermometer and it read 1005 at 20C so about 1006, seems too low. Added 1st dry hop
Dry hop twice 50g citra, each for 3 days contact, first 2 days after active fermentation
Gravity 1022 at 17.5C at day 5 post fermentation, all activity stopped. Tastes great though. Added other hop addition, swirled a little and increased temp to 22 for the next 3 days.
At 1020/2 after extra 3 days. Doesn't seem to be budging so bottling up. Carbed to 2.0vol, 4g/L so 96g in 500ml for 32 750ml bottles 24 lts. However only 21lt in fermentor, so added around 75g of it and bottled 21 bottles in end, quite a bit of yeasty beer left at end

Notes: OG came in low at 1.044 finished at 1.007 still in secondary for 8 more days until kegging.

Brew 2/17 OG .053 in primary
2/28 FG .007 in secondary

10/18/15 - OG .050-1 a little low but OK want it lower in % anyway

10/30/15 - FG .007 for 5.55% perfect
