Notes: OBS - 2 days before the brew day: do an yeast starter
1. Crush 2x the grains and place aside
2. Add 1.5 gal cold water to the kettle; heat up to 157F; place the nylon bag with the grains until temp drop to 152F = steep for 60 minutes (while grains are steeping heat 1/2 gallon of water to 170F)
3. Remove the nylon bag and place into strainer to drain into the kettle; slowly rinse the grains with the pre-heated water
4. Add liquid malt extract slowly (if needed, top up to 2.75 gal)
5. Heat the kettle to a boil; add Columbus hops (0.5oz) @ 60min; Irish Moss @ 10 min; Amarillo hops (0.5oz) @ 5min; Centennial hops (0.5oz) @ 5min; Mosaic hops (0.5oz) @ 5min
6. If possible remove the hops and chill the wort to 180F; add Amarillo hops (0.5oz); Centennial hops (0.5oz); Mosaic hops (0.5oz) for the whirpool; let it rest for 20 minutes
7. Sanitize the fermenter and add 2 gallons of cold water; chill the wort to 70-80F
8. Pour the wort to a sanitized funnel with a strainer; then oxygenate the wort (if needed top up the fermenter with cold water before that, up to the 5 gal mark)
9. Take a gravity read (when the wort is around 68-70F) and pitch the yeast (in this recipe I used Wyeast 1318); for this recipe it is recommended to use a yeast starter.
10. Seal the fermenter with the carboy bungs; ferment at 67-72F for 7 days;
11. On day 7 add Amarillo hops (01oz); Centennial hops (1oz); Mosaic hops (1oz) then continue to ferment until FG is reached (1013); keep the temperature from 68-72 for 14 days
12. On bottling day take a gravity reading; prime with 3/4 cup of corn sugar; bottle conditioning for 2-3 weeks

Notes: Recipe is taken from James Morton's book 'Brew'. He recommends overpitching the yeast for the most banana esters, which combining with the caramel from the malts give the Banoffee flavour. Mango Jacks description for this yeast seems to suggest that most malt character is stripped away during fermentation. We shall see. The result ought to be a very tasty beer in any case.
1.052 preboil..way off. Think this is due to my mash tun overshooting on the mash temp. Often sits above 70...
1.048 OG....1.8 litres chilled water added after boil
4 litre sparge. 2 litres tap water added during boil.
(Using new hop spider and wort level did not come up high enough to submerge the bottom of the hop spider)
20 litres into the fermentor.
Sample gravity at Day 5 1.016...wow...this yeast is a monster. Will test again on day 8.
No movement, so bottled on day 8. Sample tasted very nice. Can't to taste it after a week. Will there be banana?
1 week post bottling there was detectable banana but not loads. But a very complex and sumptuous, thick beer. Two weeks after bottling and, oh my word, this is something very special. Such a rich toffee flavour. Deep and satisfying. Perfect Xmas brew. Will definitely do again. Will rename to Toffee-bomb dunkelweizen. |

Notes: Measured original gravity was 1.072. Measured final gravity was 1.01.
2 smack packs of Wyeast 3711, no starter.
Tastes pretty good, but not perfect. Kind of a mix between a belgian and a farmhouse, rather than the light/fruity/hoppy farmhouse I was targeting. Next time will not make it as malty, and will use a bit more dry hop. |
