Notes: Friday 29th July 2016 - 1.5L starter of rehydrated dried yeast to get up to the correct cell count

Sunday 31st July 2016 - Starter placed in fridge so it can be decanted

Tuesday 2nd August 2016 - Brewday. Mashed in with 23L water. Mash temp 66.5C. Added 2mL 80% ĺactic acid instead of the predicted 3.8mL to hit a mash pH of 5.4. Mash pH after 20 mins. 5.18. Mash pH after 50 mins. 5.19. Total Mash time 60 mins. Total boil time 60 mins.

Way short on volume (fucking leaf hops!). Maybe 17L at 1.045. pH 5.19.

Yeast pitched once wort had cooled to 12C. Fermentation fridge set to 12C.

Thursday 4th August - Ferm fridge set to 13.5C
Monday 8th August - Ferm fridge set to 19C
Sunday 14th August - Set ferm fridge to -1C for cold crash

Thursday 18th August - Kegged. Didn't bother doing a pressurised transfer. Hooked up gas at 40 psi.

FG = 1.013. 4.2% ABV.

Notes: Notes:
1. M05 yeast pitch rate at least 0,5g/L - don't worry about overpitching 1-2g/L, neither 10-times more yeast will ruin your mead
2. yeast nutrient = 0,25-0,3g/L Vitamon cerevisiae (in case of M05 yeast) in 5 additions
3. first nutrient addition before pitching yeast
4. second nutrient addition after 24 hours
5. third nutrient addition after 48 hours
6. fourth nutrient addition after 72 hours
7. last nutrient addition after 5 days if fermentation slows down
8. be careful of adding nutrient: shake or sweep patiently the carboy before to exhaust CO2, nutrient can do CO2 fountain; exhausting CO2 to day 5 improves yeast condition and work
9. reading after 3 days: SG 1.045, temperature 22°C; reading after 5 days: SG 1.032, temperature 21°C, after 7 days SG 1.021, after 10 days SG 1.010; after 14 days FG 1.006 - fermentation stopped
10. transfer your mead to sanitized carboy and add 0,25g/L=1,2g potassium sorbate to prevent further fermentation then add 100g same pasteurized honey for backsweetening and wait for 2 days
11. make sure that fermentation doesn't start again then do cold crash for 2-3 days to clear your mead
12. bottle and let aging at least 3 weeks at room temperature or ideally few months at 10°C

fermentation length 14 days + 2 days for confirmation
FG rises to 1.014 after honey backsweetening, alcohol lowers approx. 0,2%
flavor: very sweet with tones of grapefruit

Poznámky:
1. očkovací dávka kvasnic M05 se při této hustotě doporučuje aspoň 0,5g/L - neboj se ale předávkování 1-2g/L, ani 10-násobek tvou medovinu nepoškodí
2. výživa kvasnic = 0,25-0,3g/L Vitamon cerevisiae (v případě kvasnic M05) v 5 dávkách
3. první dávka výživy ještě před zakvašením
4. druhá dávka 24 hodin po zakvašení
5. třetí dávka po 48 hodinách od zakvašení
6. čtvrtá dávka po 3 dnech od zakvašení
7. poslední dávka výživy po 5 dnech, pokud kvašení zpomalí
8. buď opatrný, když přidáváš kvasnice, radši předtím nech mícháním uniknout CO2, jinak hrozí, že po přidání výživy medovina vypění; uvolňováním CO2 se zároveň zlepšuje kondice kvasnic a kvalita kvašení, provádíme do 5. dne
9. po 3 dnech hustota 1.045, kvašení při teplotě 22°C; po 5 dnech hustota 1.032, teplota 21°C, po 7 dnech hustota 1.021, po 10 dnech 1.010, po 14 dnech 1.006 - fermentace se zastavila
10. přelij medovinu do sanitovaného demižonu a přidej 0,25g/L=1,2g sorbanu draselného k zamezení další fermentace; pak přidej 100g téhož pasterizovaného medu k doslazení a počkej 2 dny
11. ujisti se, že medovina nezačala znovu kvasit, pak zchlaď na 2-3°C a ponech tak aspoň další dva dny, až se medovina vyčistí
12. nalahvuj medovinu a nech zrát aspoň 3 týdny v pokojové teplotě nebo ideálně pár měsíců v 10°C

doba kvašení 14 dnů + 2 dny na potvrzení
100g doslazovacího medu rozpuštěného ve 100ml vody zvedne hustotu na 1.014, alkohol se sníží o cca 0,2%
chuť: velmi sladká s nádechem grepu

Notes: Used 280oz (14 imperial pints) of water for steeping. Lost a bit of crystal so down to 1 lb and 7 oz vs target if 1.5 lbs. steeped for 20 minutes but went a bit high at 175 degrees so turned off heat for last 10 minutes. Added 2 oz cascade to the boil to hit IBU target. My hops were lower alpha than target Added almost 5 lbs LME to the boil by mistake which meant that my wort concentration was a bit high. This will lower the alpha isometrization and slightly reduce bitterness.

After 2 weeks in barrel first sample was tasty but not quite like Manny’s. More like a hoppy ESB. Malt was a little strong so maybe use crystal 40. Hops were good. Strong yeast presence and lots of carbonation.

After 4 weeks there was still really good carbonation. Color was mid-brown, and while easily drunk it's not like any recognizable style - maybe part ESB, part pale ale, part something yeasty!
