DIRECTIONS
Mill the grains and mash at 147°F (64°C) for 45 minutes. Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 7 gallons (26.5 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 90 minutes, adding hops, yeast nutrient, and finings according to the schedule. After the boil, add dextrose and mix in well, then do a whirlpool step: Stir or recirculate to create a vortex, chilling the wort to 180°F (82°C) or topping up with cold water to reach temperature. Add the whirlpool hops and allow 60 minutes to steep. Chill to 60°F (15.5°C), oxygenate thoroughly, and pitch plenty of healthy yeast. Ferment at 62°F (16.7°C) until the gravity has dropped to about 1.020, then allow free rise to 68°F (20°C). When fermentation is complete and the beer has been at terminal gravity for 3 days—usually by Day 8—add dry hops and ALDC (an enzyme that inhibits the production of diacetyl). Drop/remove hops 2 days after dry hopping. After 2 more days, drop hops again or rack and test for diacetyl (see “Hunting for Diacetyl,” beerandbrewing.com). Crash, package, and carbonate to about 2.65 volumes of CO2.

BREWER’S NOTES
Mash: You can easily hold the mash for an hour to help ensure full conversion. Don’t raise the temperature for a mash-out step, and sparge with 168°F (76°C) water, not higher.
Oxygenate: Use plenty of oxygen—I target 16 ppm of dissolved oxygen (DO). That takes about 3 liters per minute (LPM) on our system.
Efficiency: This beer is not designed to be a high yielder, and those hops will soak up some wort. If volume is your concern, try to get 6.5 gallons (25 liters) into your fermentor. Using a foam inhibitor such as Foam Blast, FermCap, or HopAid can help keep your yeast in the fermentor, to help ensure a healthy fermentation.
pH: I target a wort pH of 5.1 at knockout. So, depending on what the pre-boil pH is, I’ll adjust at whirlpool after adding hops.

Notes: Wyeast Urquell Lager yeast (2001) has been discontinued. Use 2278, 2782 or 2000 instead.

Carapils amount is over Breiss recommended limit of 1-5%. Could be too much head, thick mouth feel (too much body), a bit sweeter as less fermentable, and may dilute the “primary” flavours in the recipe. Adding more hops could compensate for the sweetness apparently.

Need at least 2 yeast liquid packs, in 2.5 ltr starter at 1.040.

Notes: Sugar (80.8 / 100) [sugar per gram] * (1.36 * 1000) [grams] * 4 [jars] = 4395.52 g sugar from honey

A further 1kg plain sugar into the syrup.

Take the zest from 8 blood oranges and 3 lemons, then juice the lemons and oranges.

Place the juice, zest, one bag of Greek cinnamon sticks, and 1 kg sugar in a pot with 1L boiling water. Boil for 5 minutes until sugar is dissolved and the water takes the cinnamon & citrus flavour.

Take off the heat, add the tannins and yeast nutrient to the pot. Prepare the fermenter while the syrup cools a little. Add the Honey to the syrup, stirring constantly.

Transfer the honey & syrup must to the fermenter, make up to 23L with cold water.

Pitch Yeast dry onto must.
