Notes: I've had a couple of "golden stouts" that I thought were very interesting and good, so my goal was to mimic that with my own recipe. I wanted to use golden/blonde ale as a general style, though I knew this was going to fall outside of some style guidelines.

I used lactose to provide some residual sweetness (think creamer in coffee), which worked really well I think. I tasted the beer after a few days in the keg (pre- coffee addition), and it had some sweetness but not too crazy. To add coffee flavor, I got some whole beans from a semi-local roaster (Wichita Spice Merchant). I spoke with one of the roasters there and he recommended "Brazil Maniqueira" (https://www.spicemerchant.com/product/brazil-mantiqueira/). I know next to nothing about coffee, so I would recommend using something you like or, if possible, consulting your local roaster. I added 8 oz of the coffee beans to a nylon mesh bag with some glass beads (to use as an anchor), and suspended the bag inside the keg with some unwaxed/unflavored dental floss. I tasted at 2 hours and was surprised how quickly the coffee flavor came through, but it wasn't quite where I wanted it. I tasted again at 4 hours and 7 hours, at which point I decided to pull the beans. The beer is pretty light so I didn't want to overpower the beer with coffee flavor. It ended up adding the desired roastiness and complexity that I was looking for. I'm super happy with this recipe.

Notes: Need to fine tune this one a bit more. Prolly will have room in the kegerator but will a 6.5 even fit in there? Might have to reduce the size of the batch a bit. Also, decoction mash might be necessary?

Notes: 1.75 L starter made w/ 3 vials whitelabs munich helles 860.

Actual OG 1.051

Cooled w/ wort chiller to 65, racked to carboy and chilled further in chest freezer to 45 (achieved 7 hours later). Aerated and pitched the decanted (chilled) starter. Let temp slowly rise. Krausen activity 24-30 hours later @ 48 degrees. Hit 50 degrees about 36 hours after pitching. Hold at 50.

Down to 1.023 on day 5. Bumped temp up a degree.

Day 6 bumped temp to 53.

1.016 on day 8 and bumped up to 60. sample tasted good. No diacetyl as far as I can tell. Still planning to keep it at 60 for a couple days before lagering, just to be safe.

Transferred to secondary and dropped temp a couple degrees a day until it hit 34. Kept it there 4 weeks, then bottled w/ corn sugar and a bit of washed yeast (probably not necessary).

06/13/14 (4 weeks in bottle) - The beer lacks the maltiness that I was expecting from a munich helles. It's actually pretty fruity, especially in a side by side comparison w/ Andechs Vollbier Hell. Not sure why. Maybe I didn't aerate it well enough, or perhaps I didn't lager it long enough. I enjoy drinking it, but it definitely has a more American flavor profile than I was hoping for. I thought the sample at bottling time was more malty, but can't be certain. KEEP BETTER NOTES!!!

Notes: Immerse the oak cubes in a bourbon of your choice and set aside while the beer is in primary. When primary is finished, put the cubes in your secondary vessel and rack on top. Let sit for at least a month, and then sample every few weeks until the oak flavor is to your liking. Now prepare the vanilla beans.

Cut the vanilla beans into one-inch long pieces and cut in half lengthwise. Scrape out the gunk inside and discard. Soak the beans in bourbon for a day or so to sanitize. Add to the secondary and let sit for two weeks, then bottle or keg.

This beer really benefits from long-term bottle-conditioning. Immediate tastings were positive, but six-month old bottles were outstanding. Time really allows the flavors to meld with the vanilla.

Notes: https://beerandbrewing.com/recipe-reubens-triple-crush/
From Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine, Aug-Sep 2020

This homebrew-size recipe is based on the fast-selling triple IPA from Reuben’s Brews. Emphasize yeast health with a big starter, generously dry hop, then give it enough time to cold condition.

Batch size: 5.5 gallons (21 liters)
Brewhouse efficiency: 75%
OG: 1.092
FG: 1.016
IBUs: 50 ABV: 10%

Adjust your water profile to ensure a mash pH of 5.3 and a chloride-to-sulfate ratio of 3:1. Mash the grains at 148°F (64°C) for 60 minutes. Vorlauf until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains and top up as necessary to obtain 6 gallons (22.7 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding the corn sugar and hops according to the schedule. Whirlpool for 10 minutes.
After the boil, chill the wort to about 67°F (19°C). Aerate the wort and pitch a big, healthy yeast starter. Ferment at 69°F (21°C). After primary fermentation is complete, add the dry hops for three days. Ensure a full diacetyl rest in case of refermentation—if possible, test for VDK levels (see “Hunting for Diacetyl,” beerandbrewing.com). Crash to 38°F (3°C) or lower for at least a week, then package and carbonate.

Notes: Fermentation and Conditioning
Use 18 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast, 4 liquid yeast packages, or make an appropriate starter. Ferment at 68 ° F (20° C) to start, raising the temperature gradually to 70° F (21° C) for the last third of fermentation. When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 1.5 to 2 volumes.
CaraMunich (60 °L)

All-Grain Option
Replace the English extract with 21.5 lbs. (9.75kg) British pale ale malt. Mash at 150 °F (66 °C). The mash volume for this beer, even at a thick 1 qt./lb. (2 L/kg), will be about 7.5 gallons (29 liters). If your brew system is unable to fit all of the base grain, feel free to replace up to half of the British pale ale malt with English pale ale extract. The flavor difference is minimal in such a big-flavored beer, especially with the high-quality extracts available today. Increase the pre-boil volume as needed to allow a 90-minute boil.
