Notes: Mash grains in 1.50 gal of water at 152F for 60 minutes. Raise water temp to 170 and sparge. Add maltodextrine, top off kettle to 6.50 gal to allow for a 60 minute boil. Heat water and add LME and check gravity. Adjust water or boil time as needed to hit gravity target. Add hops as indicated. Add Irish moss 15 minutes before the end of boil. At end of boil after adding flame out hop additions chill wort rapidly to 70 -75 degrees. When cool pitch yeast and ferment at 65-68F.

Allow to ferment approximately one week, and then add dry hops. Rack to keg after another week. Carbonate to 2.5 volumes CO2. If bottling, prime with 5 oz. priming sugar to 1 cup water boiled 10 minutes. Allow two weeks to carbonate.

Notes: 1. In a large brew pot, boil 3 gallons of water.

2. With the pot removed from the burner, add 3.5 lbs honey. Make sure to stir the water so the honey dissolves completely and doesn’t burn on the botttom of the pot. When the honey fully dissolved, return the pot to the burner.

3. As the liquid starts boiling again, add 1 0z Cascade pellet hops and boil for 60 minutes. After 15 minutes add ½ oz Centennial hops, After 15 more minutes add ½ oz Citra hops. After 15 more minutes add the other ½ oz Centennial hops. with 5 minutes left in the boil, add the other ½ oz Citra hops. (it helps to contain the hops in individual muslin bags)

4. At the end of the boil, remove the pot from the burner and let cool to about 90 degrees fahrenheit. Remove the hop bags and dissolve the remaining 3.5 lbs of honey

5. Add the must to a 3 gallon primary fermenter, aerate, and pitch the yeast.

6. Seal fermentor with airlock and store in a dark place at a temperature of about 70 degrees.

7. After 2 weeks, with a siphon, re-rack the mead into a sanitized 3 gallon carboy.

8. Add the cascade leaf hops in a muslin bag to the secondary.

9. After 2 weeks, re-rack, then let age for 4 months.

10. Dissolve the corn sugar in 1 cup warm water and add to carboy.

11. Fill sanitized bottles and let age for at least 2 months.

Notes: I brew with soft water. Ph is around 8. I also expected higher efficiency e.g. around 75%. Was aiming for ABV right around 8%

CaSO4: 7,2 gram (Add to mash water)
CaCO3: 1,8 gram (Add to mash water)
NaHCO3: 1,8 gram (Add to mash water)

CaSO4: 8 gram (Add to sparging water)

I used a "Hop Alpha Acid Age Adjustment Calculator" to get the right IBU

Notes: Traditionally these were made by using the first wort drained from a large batch of malt, the rest of which went into lower gravity beers.

It is possible to duplicate this procedure on the small scale by:
i) using a very stiff mash
ii) sparging very slowly
iii) cease collecting wort when the gravity has dropped to a critical value – about 15 below the beer OG.

Change the vessel receiving the wort and continue sparging slowly until the SG of the second wort drops to 50 below the beer OG.
Boil the second, weaker wort until the SG (adjusted to room temperature) has risen to 15 below the beer OG.

Add the first wort and raise to the boil. Add the hops and boil for 1 ½ hours.

Ferment with good quality ale yeast.

Dry hop with 1/2 oz Goldings.

MATURE FOR AT LEAST 1 YEAR.

Notes: Bring 2.5 gallons of water to 155° F, add crushed grain in a grain bag and hold for 30 minutes at 150° F. Sparge grain bag with one gallon of 170° F water, add to brew pot. Bring brew tea to a boil, add the dry malt and bittering hops.
-
Boil for 60 minutes add hops, Irish Moss and yeast nutrient accordingly.

-
Splash 2.5 gallons cold water into fermentation bucket.
-
Cool wort to approx 90° F, then add to fermentation bucket. Add yeast when wort has cooled to below 75° F. Ferment at as low as 68° to 75° F, for 2 weeks.
-
Prime with 3/4 cup corn sugar and 2 cups water boiled for 10 minutes, add to wort, stir gently and bottle. Carbonate at 70° to 72° F for 3 to 4 weeks.
