Notes: Brewed Sunday 18th January 2015.
Recipe based on Kelsey McNairs Session IPA with a slightly tweaked grain bill and different hops.

Mashed in with 20L water at strike temp of 78oC. Mash temp of 69oC (target 70oC). Mash pH looks about right from pH strips (perhaps a little more towards 5.2 than 5.5).
Top up with 3L of water at end of the mash to recover 15L of wort
Batch sparge with 2 x 15L water to recover a total volume of 45L for the boil.

Calcium Sulphate (as gypsum): 4g to malt grist and 5g to the boil
Calcium Chloride added to the strike water as 33% solution (not as dihydrate) so scaling / correction factor = 110.98 g/mol (anhydrous) / 147.014 g/mol (dihydrate) * 3 = 2.26. 3.5 x 2.26 = 7.91 mL.
Lactic Acid (88%) added to strike water (5.6 mL) and to sparge water (3.3 mL).

Rehydrated 2 packets US-05 in 2 x 110 mL cooled boiled water at 37oC.
1. Sprinkle yeast onto surface of water in a glass bottle, cover with foil and let stand for 15 mins.
2. Stir yeast with sanitised spoon and let stand for 5 mins.
3. Stir again to form a cream and let stand for 5 mins.
4. Bring down to wort temperature by adding small increments of cooled boiled water.
5. Pitch into beer within 30 mins.

Beer 1 (no clarity ferm / carrier fermentor) 21L at 1.047 (after dilution) yeast pitched at 23oC
Beer 2 yeast (+ clarity ferm / no carrier) pitched at 18oC
Beers fermented in our cellar storage at 15-15.5oC.

Collected 2 samples to run an FFT at ambient in our kitchen (21-25oC).

24/01/15 - FFT results. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Did a diacetyl test on each sample and definitely diacetyl after heating the samples and then cooling (repeated 5 days later and much less diacetyl).

25/01/15 (Sun, Day 8) Moved into the boiler room at 21oC for "d-rest" before dry hopping.

28/01/15 (Wed, Day 11) - Dry hops added 34g of each varietal in each beer (so 102g DH in ~20L beer [~5 g/L]). Decided against adding Columbus as planned as the hops just did not smell as good as the others (perhaps a little oxidised as the other packets were all opened fresh for the brewday but the columbus was opened a few brewdays ago). Samples taken for gravity readings. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Ran a diacetyl test and a small amount detected.

02/02/15 (Mon, Day 16) - Taken to the attic to crash chill (5 days on DH). Attic temp (1oC).

05/02/15 (Thurs, Day 19) - Kegged both beers in corny kegs that had been CO2 purged by transferring a full keg of Starsan from one keg to another under pressure.

Hydro samples tasted fantastic. Very clear and great hop aroma and low / moderate bitterness. Beer was at 3oC after crash chilling so took a while to warm up.

Kegs hooked up to CO2 and purged again before adding 2 bar (30 psi) pressure.

FG = 1.013 for both beers, so 4.5% ABV.

Notes: Brewdate: 12 February 2018. Captain Slog:

This brew close to Graham Wheeler recipe for relatively low-alcohol best bitter from Black Sheep. Followed recipe quite closely, upping Challenger hop dose from 21g to 25g to compensate for relatively low AA content. Otherwise identical.

Noticed during mash that Braumeister 'fly sparge' was uneven, showing preferred channels through the grain pipe. Not seen this before and wondered if the thinner mash was responsible (at 5.85L/kg, it was significantly thinner than we usually do, with a target of ABV 3.8%).

Measured OG after mash at 1.040, indicating 65% efficiency despite uneven flow through malt pipe. Volume into fermenter was 20L and OG 1.042, projected ABV 4.0%.

Fermentation set-point 19C, actual T will be close to 19.5C.

FG 1.006 - adjusted attenuation to 83%.

2nd iteration, upping fruit/hops by 2x, volume/grain by 1.6 for a bit more flavor. Going from 100% mosaic/mostly mango to 50% mosaic/amarillo with half/half mango and peach.

original recipe here:

This is mostly inspired by Gun HIll's Mosaic Soft Serve (3% ABV, oats, lactose, delicious), and Mad Fermentionist's Mango Vanilla Hopsicle.

Notes: Mashed with 5.5 gallons at 152 degrees for 60 minutes.
Sparged grains with 2 gallons of heated water to reach 7.5 gallons.
Pre-boil gravity was 10.51-1.052.
Increased boil time from 60 minutes to 90 minutes. Probably could have gotten away with around 75 minutes. My target fermenter volume should have been 5.5 gallons, but ended up being slightly less once the wort cooled.
Post-boil gravity was 1.066.
Cooled wort with immersion chiller down to 51 degrees in 24 minutes. Ambient temperature outside was roughly 41 degrees.
The color of the cooled wort is gorgeous.
The beer fermented for almost 7 days at a temperature ranging between 55-58 degrees. Days 2-6 were the most vigorous.
Sampled beer on day 7 and the gravity was 1.017!
Starting diacetyl rest on day 7 slowly taking beer up to 68 degrees.
