Notes: Slice and scrape vanilla bean into a small amount of vodka on brew day. Add to fermenter after fermentation and 4 days before kegging.

Add orange zest to vanilla vodka mix one day before adding to fermenter

Notes: Similar notes to chocolate orange candy, but much more subtle. Desired outcome is a Dry Stout with smoothness and improved mouthfeel from oats matched by chocolate flavors, then impart a floral, bitter aftertaste followed by lingering sweet orange citrus flavor and aroma.

Notes: Really delicious Rosemary IPA, perfect with a roast lamb.

I normally dont bother with secondary, usually just throw in my dry hop addition about 3-4days into primary fermentation and let it do its thing for another 5 days.

make sure you thoroughly wash all of your rosemary, and even sanitize the dry hop addition for safety.

could also consider throwing in some lemon rind during fermentation or possibly even do it at flameout.

Notes: this is a very good tasting blond, if you taste it right when kegged and carbed you will have a nice mellow hop flavor, give it a month to condition and the flavors will come together very nicely, this is a winner

Notes: *Sugar: (Last 15 minutes of boil)

*Mashing (explanation of high temperature):
The reason for mashing at 158 came from doing research into the style from somewhere that I can't even recall.
It may seem high, but the reason for doing so is that Beta Amylase enzymes denature at 158. This leaves more unfermentable long chain dextrins, you will have more "weight" and more mouthfeel with the 158f mash temp but about the same starting gravity, and the final gravity will be higher as well. You get more mouthfeel this way so that when you add the table sugar to the boil, you get the gravity boost but it's not "thin and cidery" like happens with many beers when you boost with a simple sugar. With this higher temp mash there still is decent mouthfeel and even great lacing on the glass from the proteins.

*Yeast; making as starter:
Procedure:

In a medium sauce pan, add 2 pints of water and 1 cup Dried Malt Extract (DME). Mix well and boil the solution for about 10 minutes to sterilize. Cover and cool the pan to room temperature in an ice bath. This will give you a wort of approximately 1.040 OG. Keeping the Original Gravity low is important because you want to keep the yeast in its growth phase, rather than its fermentation phase. The fermentation phase will create alcohol which can be toxic to yeast in high concentrations.

Pour the wort into a sanitized glass container (flask, growler, etc.) and pitch the vial of yeast. Cover the top of the container with a sanitized piece of aluminum foil so that it is flush with the container, but will still allow CO2 to escape. Vigorously shake or swirl the container to get as much oxygen dissolved in the solution as possible. Allow the starter to sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours, occasionally shaking it to keep the solution aerated.

You probably won’t see any visible activity, but the yeast is busy taking up the oxygen and sugars in the solution and growing new cells. After the yeast has consumed all of the nutrients and oxygen, it will form a milky white layer on the bottom of the container. If you are not planning on pitching the yeast right away, you can store it in the refrigerator with the foil still in place. When you are ready to brew, decant off most of the clear liquid from the top, being careful not to disturb the yeast layer below. Once the yeast and your wort are at approximately the same (room) temperature, rouse the starter yeast into suspension and pitch the entire quantity into your fermenter.

Typical Starter Volumes for 5 gallons:
To activate the yeast: 1 pint (with ½ cup DME)
To revitalize yeast past its Best Before Date: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME)
To brew a high gravity beer: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME)

Notes: Changed from pilsner malt to 2 row. Hit 153 with the strike (172/173) to I had to temp adjust with a quart of cold water and then a quart of hot water. I got to 150. I conditioned the malt this time and put the rollers at the default setting. I conditioned with 1.5% of the weight and it seemed to turn out really well. Looked very pretty so we will see how the sparge and efficiency goes. I hit 5.17 pH taking a reading from the spout at about 10min. Maybe I don't need the acidulated malt? Predicted pH was 5.4. Sparge only slowed down a little bit but I also had rice hulls so that might have helped vs conditioning the malt. HBC342 was about 9 months old so I decided to DH with 2 öz of Citra

Notes: 2L starter x 2days. Decanted off starter beer. Added 1 pack US-05 (and included extra mash step at 148) to account for 1084's poor attenuation. Next time, will decrease lactose to 1.5 lbs. Too milky for my taste, but folks love it. Super creamy! Also will slightly decrease Magnum hops to around 22 IBUs.

Notes: I was originally planning for this to be a simple light ale, but the hops I used (which were all grown in NZ) provided a much stronger bitterness than I expected, so I upgraded this to a pale ale. I used a standard two-stage fermentation. My actual specific gravities are below:

Brew: 14Jun13 OG: 1.049
Rack: 23Jun13 SG: 1.014
Bottle: 29Jun13 FG: 1.013

ABV: 4.73%
