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. |

9/7/15. Added 3 oz C-80L to darken & give a little more roast flavor. Next time, add the dark grains at Mash-out. |

Sparge Water: 3.5
Strike Temp: 164.5F
Upon finish of boil, rapidly cool to whirlpool temps with lid on to retain as much hop oil retention and minimize oxidation.
Chill via icebox method to 64F and enter fermentation chamber - move up to 70F (1 degree per day) as fermentation slows. |

Notes: Pumpkin 5 lb (shallow baking pan with little water @325 x 1hr or @300 x 2hr)
either steep with grains @ 150-155 degrees for 1 hr & sparge
* or add to boil for more flavor & body
If adding pumpkin to boil, steep grains for only 30 min @ 150-155.
Spring water 3.5 gal initial boil. Sanitize fermenter/carboy with Saniclean. Save sanitizer for hydrometer, spatula, & air lock.
Steep grains for 30 min at 155-160F (158).
Add bittering hops (not in bag), bring to boil, & boil for 30 min.
After 30 min boil, add pumpkin (not in bag), flavoring hops (not in bag), & boil 30 min.
With 10 min left in boil, add irish moss & yeast nutrient (if using).
With 5 min left, add spices & strainer (to sanitize).
End of boil add vanilla.
Cool wort with ice (3 10lb bags) in garden tub stirring ice 1 way & wort counter. Add frozen spring water (1 gal in 2 small amounts from 2 plastic containers that were sanitized prior to water being added). After cooling to 60F, aerate well then pour into fermenter through sanitized strainer & QS to 5 gal with refrigerated / room temp spring water dropping temp to 65F.
Check OG with SANITIZED hydrometer & pitch yeast. Dry yeast should be suspended in 100ml of water @ ~85F for 15 min.
Leave in garden tub with water in closet at 66F (or minimal recommended fermentation temp), after 48 hr active fermentation with temp @ 66F, slowly let temp increase to 72F max (or max 3 degrees less than recommended fermentation temp). After 10-14 days, transfer to 2nd fermenter or keg. Have blow out tube ready @36 hr. Total fermentation/lager time 4 weeks.

Notes: Mash 2-row and caramel malt in a single infusion style mash at 147F for 60 minutes.
Sparge with 170F water and lauter to reach pre-boil volume (between 6.5/7.5 gal dependent on your equipment).
Boil for 60 minutes, add first hop addition at beginning of boil. Add whirlfloc tab with 15 minutes remaining.
Add flameout hop additions at end of boil when flame is turned off, steep for 15 minutes before cooling to 65F.
Ferment at 65F. Allow temperature to rise to 70F on day 3 of fermentation.
When terminal gravity is reached add one half of dry hops. After 3 days add remaining dry hops. After another 3 days cold crash to 32F and condition for 2-3 days.
After beer clears, bottle or keg.
=============================================
NOTE: Recipe source states OG of 1.079. With a standard 75% efficiency value, a 17lb malt bill comes out much higher. Modify the pale malt to suit your efficiency. |
