Notes: On brew day...

Mash #1
Mill 7Kg of pale ale and dough in with 21.1L hot water, targeting a mash at 70.6C.
Hold until enzymatic conversion is complete.
If your system allows raise the mash temperature to 76C and recirculate the wort until clear.
Sparge with 77C water to collect 25L of wort.
If your boil off volume is greater than 10% / hour adjust the amount of wort you collect accordingly.
Take a specific gravity reading and, if needed, add light DME to reach a specific grav of 1.065.
Heat to a boil and add the hop extract. Boil for 4 hours.

Time Mash #2 so that the wort from Mash #1 has boiled for at least 4 hours before you begin to collect the first runnings from Mash #2 into the boil kettle.

Mash #2
Mill 3Kg of pale ale malt along with the remaining grain and dough-in with 21.1L of hot water, targeting a mash at 70.6C.
Hold until enzymatic conversion is complete.
If your system allows raise the mash temperature to 76C and recirculate the wort until clear.
Collect 13.2L of first runnings wort in the boil kettle to reach a total of 25L.
If necessary, sparge with 77C water to bring the volume up to 25L of wort.
The specific gravity of the wort in the kettle at this point should be about1 1.124
Boil for 90 minutes adding Whirlfloc, yeast nutrient and sugar at 10 minutes.
Before cooling take a specific gracity reading and, if needed, add light DME to reach a specific gravity of 1.169 and a final volume of 20.7L

Chill the wort to 16.7C
Oxygenate with pure oxygen for 90 seconds before pitching the yeast starter (decanting the spent wort first).
Ferment at 16.7-17.8C
After 12-24 hours of fermentation, oxygenate with pure oxygen for 60 seconds.
Hold the fermentation temperature at 16.7-17.8C for 7 to 10 days b.
Raise temperature up to 21.1C for 7 days to perform a diacetyl rest and ensure a complete fermentation (FG of 1.055)
Rack to secondary fermenter and leave for 1 to 3 weeks. (Due to extreme viscosity, racking this beer can take an incredibly long time).

Before or after racking the beer to the secondary, prepare a vanilla bean tincture.
Cut open 2 Mexican vanilla seeds and pods into just enough neutral spirit (like vodka) to cover, and age for 5 days before adding it to seconday.

age for 8 days minimum
(optional to barrel age, add another vanilla bean tincture for ~six months or to taste)
Before bottling add 2.5-5oz of whole bean coffee in a muslin bag to secondary
1. Intelligentsia black cat (pre-2014 Dark Lord)
or
2. Dark Matter Unicorn Blood (2014-2015 Dark Lord)

age for 24-48 hrs at 38 degrees then bottle as normal but add additional yeast (US-05) at bottling

When kegging, shoot for 2-2.25 volumes CO2
Add above described coffee beans to empty keg in a muslin bag and remove after 24-48 hours of aging at 38 degrees

Once carbonated condition at cellar temperature for several months

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: This oatmeal stout is fermented with extremely clean yeast providing a true expression of the malt and hops characteristics.

The malt extract is a blend of pale malt with some caramel 60, Munich, and black malt. It creates a dark wort with a smooth taste and at the high rate of addition in this beer, the caramel, honey, bread, coffee, chocolate, and toasty flavors boldly fill the palate.

The addition of oatmeal flour gives a rich, smooth mouthfeel and full body to the beer.

The Minnesota grown Mighty Axe Sterling hops infuse a delicately spicy, citrusy aroma with a floral and herbal nuance. The high oil content allows the hops flavor to last through the finish without over-riding the malt and oatmeal character of this wonderful porter.

Extract brewing can be simple and rewarding! Note that while the equipment costs far less than the equivalent all-grain systems, the cost to let someone else create your extract over extracting the sugars from grains yourself is more expensive by about 20-50%. The cost per 20oz (one bottle) of beer for this brew comes to just over $2.12.

For a fermentation airlock, run a section of the 3/8" ID Siphon Hose from the grommet on the lid to the bottom of one of the gallon jugs filled with sanitizer solution in tap water, and place the gallon jug and the fermentation bucket at the same height.

The recommended inoculation rate of this yeast is 2 grams per 5 gallons, or approximately 1/2 tsp. The yeast packet comes with 11 grams. The maximum pitch rate is 4g/5gal.

Primary fermentation ambient temperature can be anywhere in the yeast's fermentation temperature range, so fermenting warmer at around 75f will speed up the fermentation process, but the beer should not get warmer than 76f. If the fermenting liquid gets warmer than 76f, place the beer is a cooler (and still dark) area such as a basement or cooled fermentation chamber.

To bottle your beer, precondition each sanitized bottle with 2 Northern Brewer Fizz Drops. Attach a 5-8 foot section of the 3/8" ID Siphon Hose to the Fermenter's Favorites Bottling Spigot and the other end of the hose to the Fermenter's Favorites® Spring Tip Bottle Filler. Slowly open the spigot until it is fully open. Place the spring tip filler into the bottle and press the tip in on the bottom of the bottle. Fill the bottle until the liquid reaches the top. Remove the filler and the bottle will be filled to the optimal height.

Secondary fermentation in bottles takes between 14 and 21 days. 17.5 is usually a safe number of days to allow carbonation to build.

Do not be lead astray by the math provided by this recipe. Final gravity is likely to be much lower, and the ABV of this beer is likely to be higher due to the extremely high alcohol tolerance of this yeast.

Don't forget to sanitize everything including the outside rims of the brew equipment and even the outside of the yeast packet.
