Priming Method: honey

Priming Amount: 3 tablespoons

Creation Date: 8/9/2012 5:36 PM

Notes: PREP Peel from 1 scrubbed and dried grapefruit

60-MINUTE MASH AT 152 ° F

2 quarts water, plus 1 gallon for sparging
1.35 pounds English Pale malt
0.1 pound Victory malt
0.1 pound Caramel 10 malt
0.1 pound Caramel 20 malt
0.15 pound torrified wheat

60-MINUTE BOIL
0.1 ounce Columbus hops
0.2 ounce Amarillo hops, divided into halves
0.2 pound clear Belgian Candi Sugar
¼ cup honey

FERMENT ½ packet English ale yeast, such as Safale S-04 (see note)
3 tablespoons honey, for bottling

Note: Hops, like other crops, experience shortages depending on the growing season. Amarillo stocks can vary from year to year.
So if you have a hard time finding them, try Centennial or Cascade for a citrus-filled hop character.

PREP: Preheat the oven to 250 ° F.
Place the pieces of grapefruit peel directly on a baking sheet and bake on the lower rack until they are dry, 15 to 20 minutes,
or until the peel begins to brown.

MASH: In a medium stockpot, heat the 2 quarts water over high heat to 160 ° F. Add all the malts and torrified wheat and stir gently.
The temperature should reduce to 150 ° F within 1 minute.
Turn off the heat.
Steep the grains for 60 minutes between 144 ° F and 152 ° F.
Every 10 minutes, stir and take the temperature. If the grains get too cold, turn on the heat to high while stirring until
the temperature rises to that range, then turn off the heat.
With 10 minutes left, in a second medium stockpot heat the 1 gallon water to 170 ° F.
After the grains have steeped for 60 minutes, raise the heat of the grains-and-water mixture to high and stir until the
temperature reaches 170 ° F.
Turn off the heat.

SPARGE: Place a fine-mesh strainer over a pot, and pour the grains into the strainer, reserving the liquid.
Pour the 1 gallon of 170 ° F water over the grains. Recirculate the collected liquid through the grain once.

BOIL: Return the pot with the liquid to the stove on high heat and bring to a boil. When it starts to foam, reduce the heat to
a slow rolling boil and add the Columbus hops.
Add half of the Amarillo hops after 30 minutes, the grapefruit peel after 55 minutes, and the remaining Amarillo hops after 59 minutes.
Prepare an ice bath by stopping the sink and filling it with 5 inches of water and ice. At the 60-minute mark, turn off the heat,
add the Belgian Candi Sugar and ¼ cup honey, and stir to dissolve.
Place the pot in the ice bath in the sink and cool to 70 ° F, about 30 minutes.

FERMENT: Using a sanitized funnel and strainer, pour the liquid into a sanitized fermenter.
Add any water needed to fill the jug to the 1-gallon mark. Add the yeast, sanitize your hands, cover the mouth of the jug with one hand,
and shake to distribute evenly.
Attach a sanitized stopper and tubing to the fermenter and insert the other end of the tubing into a small bowl of sanitizing solution.
The solution will begin to bubble as the yeast activates, pushing gas through the tube.
Wait 2 to 3 days until the bubbling has slowed, then replace the tubing system with an airlock.
Wait 11 more days, then bottle, using the 3 tablespoons honey.

Variations:
1 ½ tablespoons of fresh grated ginger. Add it at 55 minutes into the boil.
Agave nectar will work as a substitution for honey.

Notes: pick up irish moss

4 packets of yeast

the colder you start out, the less the diacetyl that is produced
Let it go for 12 hrs at 40 degrees. creep up to 50 degrees by 48 hrs

Steve's thoughts: I don't entirely agree with his fermentation method
mostly because normally you would actually do what's called a diacetyl rest
because SOME "will" be produced, so what you do is raise the temp after ferm is mostly finished, to let the yeast eat those byproducts basically
so you could follow his schedule, let it sit at 50 for a week or two, then raise to 65 or even 70 for 2 days to finish of the diacetyl
THEN down to lagering temps (close to freezing as you dare)

Notes: Standard boil profile. Whirlfloc, yeast nutrient, aroma hops, and 2nd chocolate additions @ 10 minutes. S.G. reading and volume/S.G. adjustment to approx. 22 gallons just before flame out.

Add coffee in seeping bag @ flame out and seep to taste. Whirlpool chill to 160 degrees and allow to settle for 30 minutes. Transfer to fermenter, simultaneously chilling to 70 degrees and aerating with pure oxygen. Pitch a slurry of (5) 11 g packets of properly hydrated yeast @ 70 degrees and install airlock. Wait 3-4 hours, apply a 120 second, pure oxygen aeration, then close butterfly valve, remove aeration assembly, and cap. Maintain fermentation temperature at 68-70 degrees through primary fermentation. Chop vanilla bean into small pieces and soak in bourbon during primary fermentation. When primary fermentation is mostly complete, drop trub and add entire bourbon/vanilla liqueur mixture to fermenter. Allow fermentation to proceed until complete, sampling and adjusting vanilla and coffee levels to taste as necessary. Drop ambient temperature to lagering temperature if possible and hold until beer clears. Rack and carbonate. Age to taste.

Results: A wonderfully smooth porter with delicious coffee/chocolate flavor, and a great aroma. Best served well aged at cellar temperature.

Notes: Gonna kettle sour with wyeast 5335. Full notes below.

1-2 day kettle sour with either WLP672 brevis (2.5 billion, 110f) or Omega plantarum oyl-605 (150 billion, 90f) or wyeast 5335 (10 billion, 95f). Need about 30-100 billion cells.

0.5 liter 1.04 lacto starter 24 hours before keep at recommended temp and swirl but don't areate unless brevis. Add 5g-10g chalk an ounce of pasteurized Apple juice and some yeast nutrients if desired.

OR, make a 0.5 l starter with 2 tsp of non fat Greek plain yogurt and do it all at 110f...
- To sour 5 gallons of wort with yogurt, make a 1 liter batch of unhopped starter wort the day before brew day. Add 2-4 teaspoons of live yogurt to the starter wort. Maintain a 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C) temperature for about 24 hours. On brew day, and after the 24 hour sour starter is finished, mash and sparge a low IBU wort as normal, boil for a few minutes, and then chill the wort down to 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C). Pitch the yogurt starter into the wort, and hold the temperature as close to the 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C) range as possible. Bubbling CO2 through the wort is advised if possible to prevent potential off flavors, but is not required. Within 24 hours, the wort should be down in the 3.x pH range. Boil the wort, adding any hops that the recipe calls for, yeast nutrient, etc., and then cool the wort down to Saccharomyces pitching temperatures. Bob's your uncle! [2]

Refer to milk the funk wiki. And other sour kettling articles.

sanitize wort first by bringing to boil before lowering to lacto pitchign temp

consider loweing hte ph to 4.5 using lactic acid before pitching the lacto (add about 2-3ml lactic)

let the lacto go until ph = 3.5-3.6
