Notes: The first 5 juniper branches are to be added to water and brought to a boil. After boiling, remove the branches and let cool to strike water temperature. Dough in grains and mash for 90 min. After mash add hops and last juniper branch (in fine mesh bag to contain particulates) to vessel that wort is being transferred to. DO NOT BOIL WORT. Remove when cooled and pitch kveik (not an option in BF at the moment). |

Notes: This brew is an iteration of a few ciders using different grain bills (juice to honey ratios) with various yeasts.
Notes:
5lbs = 5 Gal. Apple Juice (if this is your first cider, use organic juice without potassium sorbate; it will kill the yeast and not ferment). Don't think I used maltodextrin here.
The rest of the grain bill is accurate. If a little less kick is needed, try one of the alternates below. I'm using WLP001 this time because of its tolerance for high alcohol, higher fermenting temp and because it finishes sweater (personally I prefer the dryness of the EC-1118 but then it's closer to Cyser territory).
I'm thinking ABV should be close to 10%. Also, because OG will be relatively high I'm using a starter. One could also double pitch with decent results. I've pitched one yeast pack before and still not had any problems.
Basic steps: Boil 2 gal. apple juice and add honey stirring constantly. (Honey is heavy and will sink to the bottom. It burns easily like candi syrup.) Boil juice, honey and sugar together for at least 20 minutes. Combine wort with remaining juice once temps drop to pitching levels.

YEAST / OG / FG
WLP775 / 1.073 / 1.012 -5 gal. juice to 3 lbs honey
WLP005 / 1.087 / 1.030 -6 gal. juice to 6 lbs honey(4 gal. split)
EC-1118 / 1.087 / 1.011 -6 gal. juice to 6 lbs honey (2 gal. split)

Notes: This is a clone of Sexual Chocolate by Foothills Brewing Co., as found on TastyBrew.com blog (http://www.tastybrew.com/forum/thread/154676); as the finalized with a few tweeks to the recipe.
1: The blog said to NOT add cocoa powder after trial due to graininess in the final beer and the need to chill and re-rack, but he used 6 oz at secondary, dry. I shall use 3 oz, mixed with 6 oz boiled water that will hopefully moisten the cocoa and reduce graininess in the final product and encourage settling during secondary.
2. I'm going to use homemade chocolate syrup in place of Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Syrup at kegging.
3. My Homebrew Supply Store did not sell Wyeast anymore; so while the original recipe uses Denny's Favorite 50, the closest strain by White Labs is California V. So, we'll see how this goes! |
