Notes: This is not the original ingredients list. Must start calling Cachette in advance to secure yeasts - and hops for that matter.
Boil started off perfectly. Got a skunk living under the stoop, and just found out the Mustang has a leak in the radiator. Losing Mike Barsalou next week due to inverted headcount ratio. Good times.
Because I added steeped water at about 15 min (with Irish Moss), and also added water at about 20 minutes to keep up boil volume (suspect this is a no-no), I added 10 minutes to the boil, to ensure it had 60 minutes of true boiling time. Don't simmer your beer, I once read. Should have waited to add the carageenan.....oh well.
Made starter, as per instructions, with 200B yeast cells.
Chilled the pot in the snow.
Pitched yeast next morning, at about 65F, set chiller to 58F. Yeast looked happy. Starting gravity was spot-on at 1.050. Probably dropped with all the liquid thrown in with the yeast.....did not check.
Temp profile: 51F (3/12), Diacetyl rest 57-64-67 (3/18-3/21), racked to carboy, 55F (3/21), 39F (would not reach 36F, 3/23), 40F (3/26), OFF (3.29). Took about 3 days to get above 50F.
Bottled on April 4, everything went smoothly.

Notes: Crush the grains, place in a grain bag and steep them in 2.5 gallons (9.5 L) of 168 °F (76 °C) water for 30 minutes.
Remove grain bag and bring grain tea to a boil.
Stir in malt extract and resume boil, add Cascades hops once boil resumes.
After 45 minutes, add the Goldings hops (60 minute total boil).
Ferment at 68 °F (20 °C)
The basis for the recipe is Watney's Cream Stout. I added coffee and tweaked the grain bill. |

Notes: Beer came out awesome! There are a few changes I'd make though.
First, the melanoidin character is just a tad strong for my personal preference. It seems to be a bit too dried-fruity and verging on chemically, something that CaraMunich and Dark Munich malts contribute in large amounts (-The chemical flavor faded, it was from CaraMunich and was similar to a dry-erase marker aroma-). I'd rather have a fuller, bready and toasty, almost nutty character.
Another thing is that the hoppy bitterness is just slightly too high. This hoppiness, paired with the clean, dry finish lends a bit of a light crispness to the overall beer. This isn't really out of style, but for my personal preference, it's a bit much.
Honestly though, these are super-nitpicks. This beer is fantastic! I really like the interplay between the floral, spicy, herbal hops and the rich caramel and fruitiness of the malts. This is an excellent beer, and something that I can drink anytime. The carbonation is also spot on.
In competition, the highish melanoidin and hoppiness will probably give this beer an edge against other heavier, more cloying examples; especially with the dry, palate cleansing finish. |
