Notes: 1. Bring 2.5 Gallons of water to temp. 155-160F.
2. Add 1lb of your Pilsen DME
3. Steep your speciality grains for 20 minutes -- Oats included.
4. "Sparge" the bag using .25 gallons of 160F water.
5. Bring the wort to a boil.
6. Once boil has been acheived, add 1/2 oz El Dorado Hops to boil for 60 minutes.
7. Add your DME and Lactose at 50 minutes.
8. Turn of heat at 60 minutes
9. Add your mandarin peel to steep in the wort for 20 minutes after flameout.
10. Cool your wort to 160F-170F and add your Cascade/Amarillo hops for 20 minutes.
11. Ferment for at least 14 days in primary, at day 11, add your Galaxy, Cascade, and Amarillo hops.
My goal is to make a citrousy, creamy, smooth, juicy/smooth beer with good head retention and mouthfeel. I might switch around the hops based on what I'm shooting for.
11/4/22: Beer is a tad darker than I hoped. Sparging made a huge difference: I retained my calculated OG of 1.072 even at 5.5 gallons. Chilling with refrigerated water really did the trick to bring the temperature down fast.
11/5/2022: Beer blew out of fermentor after 24 hours. Smells and tastes amazing. Very juicy smelling. Can't wait to dry hop.
11/15/22: Added my dry hop. Galaxy hops were a tad too bitter on the nose for my preference. Finished at 1.020! Very smooth flavor and well balanced sweetness and hop! Slighty tropical/fruity smell, but not nearly as strong as I'd expect, hopefully carbonation will help with this. Color checks out, not nearly as hazy as I hoped, but hopefully this means it won't get that weird "brown" oxidation color.
11/18/2022: Bottling was a disaster. The siphon kept getting clogged which led to a bunch of re-siphoning and oxygen bubbles. I feel oxidation will almost be imminent with this beer. Overall, the flavor and aroma is pretty much where I want it. I would have liked a little more sweet orange, so I will add more orange to the brew next time. The beer is incredibly juicy and hazy, just how I want it. |

Skipping a middle mash step @ 145-147F -- would be interesting to try.
Also skipping the "vorlauf" -- sounds like a real all-grain technique. Skipping whirlfloc and kettle defoamer.
Pitch at 95F, keep warm. Top-crop the yeast at 40h out of the carboy, using a turkey baster. Planning for 1-2 wk cold crash under the back porch.
------
I didn't end up cold-crashing it. But it turned out delicious, and as the weeks went on, it clarified really nicely. Looking forward to making this again, same recipe. |

Notes: First one (actually, 2nd one, but I over did the sugar of the first batch). The original recipe is no longer available as the writer modified it with other hops, so I decided to write it for my own use. Fermented with Fermentis Safeale K97, which absolutely rocks. BTW, as this is the second time I have done this I wasted lots of worth and beer due "problems" with tubing and such (and OC measuring of OG/FG). In the end, I had OG of 1.052 and FG of 1.012. This was reached in a week, but I let it alone for another one. Temperature wise, I kept the fermenter at 68-70 F (18-20 C). It is so easy to drink it that I am gonna be sorry to drink my last bottle, but I need it for my third brewing experiment. About things to improve, 1) head retention, 2) more CO2. Used calculator, but froze the beers after 15 days because I could not wait. One week more (or just some more corn sugar) would have worked better.
Note 1: The beer is nice, light, and citrusy, with some pine notes. Color-wise, it is a tad darker than the style calls for. Bitter-side, it is perfect but I brew at 9000 feet (2800 meters) over the sea level, so I think hops utilization rate is low. No crazy haze (used Irish moss).
Update 9-10-2020: updated the recipe for new kettle. Playing with malts as I ran out of Vienna, but have some other malts that I can use. Added flaked oats as I got good head retention with other recipe. I will ferment with S-33 to see how yeast makes a difference.
