Notes: Mash all grains except chocolate wheat malt at 149° F (65° C) for 90 minutes. Powder chocolate wheat malt in a clean coffee grinder and sprinkle the powder over the top of the mash, then fly sparge as normal.

Chill wort to 70° F (21° C), pitch yeast, and monitor for activity. As soon as fermentation begins, chill to 64° F (18° C) and make sure you’ve attached a blowoff hose.

White Labs WLP007 Dry English ale yeast (optional, to increase
attenuation) (add at high krausen.

After fermentation is complete, rack to secondary and age four months to a year.

Original was Fawcett Maris and Fawcett Dark Crsytal.

Notes: Prepare starter 3 days in advance if your using a starter.

This brew is for those that want to make a Oktoberfest style homebrew but do not have the capacity to lager or use a fermentation temperature control chamber. We are using American Ale yeast in the place of the traditional lager yeast.

You can also use Safale US-05 in place of WLP001.

This is the 10 gal version.

8/24/15 - Ive made two batches of this brew.
First batch OG: 1.061 FG: 1.018. tastes great, cant wait to ferment it.

Second batch OG: 1.060 FG: TBD.

I will add photos of the final product when ready. The taste (no carbonation) reminds me of Spaten Oktoberfest. I believe I hit the nail on the head. I wont fully know until I carb it and let it age alittle.

Notes: Prior to pitching- wort was sweet (duh!), and the mouthfeel suitable. The smell was very tropical due to the low bittering hop schedule; Azaaca and Pekko hops reminded me of everything from mango, cucumber and mint. Used a 1 liter starter w/o stir plate (2 days prior to pitching). extremely bright yellow color, reminiscent of a banana peel. OG= 1.050. Fermentation is occurring at ambient room temperature, which during this time of year is between 74-76. A little on the high side for this yeast, but we'll see what happens.

Day 3 - high-krausen has subsided, but the yeast has produced enough CO2 that the sample I pulled was slightly carbonated. Gravity reading = 1.012 (4.99% ABV). At this point, I believe primary fermentation is suitably completed. Tasting notes- excellent mouthfeel; mild, creamy body. Taste like a tropical hefeweizen- subdue notes of banana and clove, but the taste from the boil addition of orange peel and grapefruit peel are present on the back end. I am resisting the temptation of pulling the beer out of primary and putting into secondary. I will leave the beer on the wort until day 7. Will pull a new gravity reading at day 5. Deciding on whether or not to use fining agents to make the beer clearer, like a kristalweizen, or to keep the traditional wheat haze present. Very pleased with the choice of yeast.

Day 5 - gravity has fallen to 1.006 (5.78% ABV). Evidently, I was clearly wrong about fermentation being done on day 3. Will monitor for atleast another 2 days to see if the gravity stabilizes. If it is stable on day 7, I will make to secondary on day 10 or 11. I don't want to rush this beer, but I am eager to pour a glass of it. The honey addition at flameout is now present. Still has the notes of orange peel and grapefruit peel, put I have to pull deep to tate any of the banana or clove characteristic. It is a bit sweeter on the pallet than I am used to tasting, but I have never brewed a beer with such a low IBU. The mouthfeel is still creamy and pleasant.

Notes: Use a vegetable peeler to get the peel of 1 and a half fresh sweet oranges and 1 fresh bitter orange. Be sure not to include any pith (white part). Zest 2 fresh lemons and 1 fresh grapefruit, also taking care to not include any pith. Crush whole coriander seeds until broken in halves. Be sure to filter out all citrus and spice remnants from the wort before pitching yeast.

Notes: This is my all time favorite beer, have fun with it

whirlpool at 0 until the temp drops to 170 then chill, I used a -30 degree freezer on this one and it slowly chilled after 4 hours to 60F, ferment for 5 to 7 days then add the first dry hop to the fermenter in a bag, wait 5 to 7 days then pull into a keg and dry hop the second for another 3 to 5 days under Co2 then cold crash at 34 for 3 days and pull the beer off into a serving keg to carbonate, wait a week and you will love it!!

the picture below on the left is after using gelatin, otherwise it will not clear at all like the one on the right

just a recap on hop amounts it takes

4 Ounces Amarillo
4.25 Ounces Centennial
5 Ounces CTZ
8 Ounces Simcoe

Notes: Weight of Apple Juice is Approximately 8.75 lb/ gal.
PPG of Apple Juice was adjusted to get to OG of ~45 where most AJ lives.

Ed's Apfelwein uses Corn Sugar, but I prefer the caramel-y additions of brown sugar.

Notes: Yeast listed as Edme ale (no idea what that is) but was actually yeast / bacteria cultured from Jackie O's Chunga's Old Bruin...

Which didn't ferment. So added cultured dregs from an Orval bottle.
