No sparge method may have resulted in a lower efficiency

2L starter, decanted (a hint of diaceytal is present due to the extremely quick fermentation. Consider reducing the starter size to 1-1.5L and pitching at 54F)
Fermentation Schedule

Notes:
Strike with 9 gallons at 160 to hit 145. Raise through Herms to 155 after 45 minutes. Verify Mash PH is 5.2. Adjust if necessary with lactic acid. Sparge with 11 gallons at 165-170
Safeale 04 (wyeast 007) fermented out three generations in. Yeast has a good clean ale flavor. Made a 2 liter starter two days before brew day 1-21-12.
Pitch yeast at 65. Add 1vl for 2min of pure 02 prior to pitching. Ferment at 65. Raise to 70 degrees after a few days to clear diactyle.
Add a Brett C culture in secondary after building it up via starter. Adds a nice leathery/citrus/pineapple complex flavor. Dry's the beer out substantially and really adds a huge amount of complexity. Drying the beer out helps substantially in the finish.

Notes: Use treacle instead of molasses (they don't have treacle as a drop down ingredient); it has 100L color vs 80L listed for molasses, so similar...
To get authentic old/aged character, add oak cubes and/or Brett and/or Lacto (or blend slightly with some sour wood-aged beer). |

Notes: -Mash for 60 mins.
-Sparge.
-Boil for 15 minutes to sterilize.
-Pre-acidify wart with lactic acid to 4.5pH to aid souring, prevent spoilage and supposedly help head retention.
-Cool down to 32-33c.
-Add Lacto culture. (IBS support pills (7) 140 billion lactobacillus plantarum)
-Cover and let sit for ~12-36 hours at 31c until soured to your liking (3.2-3.4 pH).
-Re-boil for 45 minutes with hop additions and finings.
-Chill, pitch 2 packets yeast (With nutrient maybe), ferment.
-Pre-boil gravity was 1.055
-After pitching 7 IBS pills (mistakingly without opening the caps), 17 hours in the pH was still at 4.5. I pitched another 5 IBS pills this time opening the caps. 12 hours later the pH was 3.6.
-I'm aiming for a pH of 3.2-3.4. |

Pitch at 64, set fermentation temp to 68.
Bump to 70 after 4 days or so (after main fermentation is complete).
Half with US-05 and half with Brett. Both 3-gallon fermenters should fit in fridge.
Dry hop in primary with hop bag. Split dry-hop additions between fermenters. |
