Notes: Take 4l of runnings and boil it down on the stove to about 1l of liquid, add this to the boil, this provides the caramel flavor and color for the beer.

After a month long primary rack the beer onto 2 oz of medium toasted American oak chips that have been boiled in a cup of water for 10 minutes. You can probably alter the flavor a good deal by swapping this for chips soaked in: whiskey, rye, spiced, dark or navy rum etc.

Notes: Mango Maya (version 2) Oct/Nov 2018 :
Won 1st place at 2018 Stone Homebrew Competition and American Homebrew Association Rally!

Efficiency came out really low so I had to add DME a couple days into fermentation. I intended to add more but it was all I had on hand at the time.

I put all the dry hops and the coconut all in one giant muslin bag, it was pretty stuffed. Probably did not get max extraction. Considered racking to secondary to free up some head space but it was still actively fermenting I didnt want to mess with it too much.

Side note : because of other ongoing batches, this batch did not have an airtight seal on the fermentation bucket. I just used my brew pot lid.

START MANGO MAYA VERSION 1 NOTES
March 2018
bumping warrior from .5 to .75 - RR was not bitter at all but all sweet and smooth. When dry hop wears pff its missing some bitter balance. Should prolly do 1 whole oz. But non ipa guests might like it more if less bitter.

unclear on how much coconut. this guy used 0.5 lb for 1-3 days in dry hop (but he also used another 1lb during boil and another 0.5 lb in keg). seems like not a lot but he insists not to overdo it. he says it imparts flavor fast.
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/coconut-ipa.586566/

some other recipes im seeing are using a pound or more total. a lot of people have been adding some to boil, which as of this writing it is too late to consider. cant decide if i want to add 1/2 or a whole pound...

Went with 8oz flaked unsweetend coconut for 3 days and it is really coconutty! But not too much.

START STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE NOTES
January 2018
original notes from strawberry milkshake research :
did not finish my recipe before getting to the brewstore so its a little improvised but i think it will work.

one worry is that the original recipe was only 1073 OG. when i beefed up the malt bill i did not add any additional bittering hops so it will be pretty low IBU and Bu/GU but we'll see...

strawberry is strawberry puree. or maybe frozen and thawed fruit. add the fruit after high krausen. add dry hops after that, approx 4 days before keggings.

based off
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/437443/milkshake-style-ipa-clone

some people say add green apples to boil to get the pectin which makes the body and haze - no apple flavor in the end. guy said he added 5 apples. for this version i will omit though. https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/milkshake-ipa-help.497852/

some say to add wheat flour too but im not so worried about the appearance, it should be hazy enough with the oats wheat and manchester yeast...

heres another recipe reference supposedly closer to the tired hands version :
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/392896/ipa-tired-hands-milkshake

thinking about breaking off a couple gallons before the strawberry addition and adding toasted coconut :
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/coconut-ipa.445732/
1.5 lb coconut toast at 190 for 15 min constantly turning. Some add to mash or boil or keg but I think I'll just secondary

update 01242018 : some homebrew stores have kits now, check out the grain bill for those (more or less the same, they dont use any puree necessarily : http://www.greatfermentations.com/downloads/instructions/beerkits/ShakeitGoodMIPAAG.pdf

Notes: When primary fermentation is complete, split 2 nice fresh vanilla beans lengthwise. Scrape out and reserve all the seeds and "gunk" in them. Cut the pods into roughly 2-3" pieces and add the pods, seeds and "gunk" to a secondary fermenter. Leave them there until you get the amount of vanilla flavor you like. I usually start tasting at about a week and a half, and may leave them in until 2 weeks. You may want to let them go a bit more than you think is necessary since the vanilla flavor fades with time. When the beer is done in secondary, rack to a keg or bottling bucket with about 375 ml. of bourbon. I use Jim Beam Black. You don't need to use an exceptionally good bourbon. The bourbon flavor should integrate with the porter and vanilla flavors, not stand out and shout "Bourbon!" You can determine the amount of bourbon for your own tastes through the following method....pour 4 2 oz. samples of the beer that goes into the bottling bucket or keg. Dose each with a measured amount of bourbon. Taste them to decide which you like best, then scale that amount up to your batch size. This beers does not need, nor benefit from, extensive aging. Generally, I prefer it within a couple months of brewing.

Notes: Add 5 mL hop shots at 60 min.

Add 0.75 lb of Lactose with ~5 min left.

Split hops at whirlpool between FO and 170F

Split hops between Day 2 and after most of pineapple addition is fermented out.

Puree pineapple chunks, strain and heat at ~170 F for 5-10 min prior to adding to fermenter. This will denature the papain enzyme that can digest proteins and ruin head retention.

When kegging, add ~2 oz of the vanilla extract (5 vanilla beans added to ~8 oz of vodka on 10FEB18).

BREW DAY: 25FEB18

First round of dry hop added on 27FEB18, second round on 01MAR18. Beer cold crashed on 03MAR18 and kegged later that night.

FG = 1.017, add ~2 oz of vanilla extract to the keg prior to CO2 purging.
