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: Very limited instructions from Malt Miller so chose 65 deg mash for 60 mins and swapped the yeast from SO-4 to SafAle-05.
MM says target OG should be 1050 but Brewers Friend says 1044 which is what I got. Target FG 1010. |

Notes: Special Brewing Instructions:
1. At start of boil, put dried lingonberries in the blender and cover with wort from the kettle. Puree, cool, and add the pectic enzyme. Refrigerate for one 1 day. Add this mix to the fermenter on day two of fermentation.
2. After 30 minutes of the boil, remove two cups of wort to a smaller pot. Heat the wort to keep it hot, but do not boil it. Add the yarrow, meadowsweet, and birch syrup. Steep this mix until the end of the boil, then strain it into to the kettle.
3. Add the cranberry concentrate and honey immediately after flame-out (end of boil).
Residue of this gruit was recovered from the grave of the Egtved Girl, and was reproduced as "Kvasir" by Dr. Pat McGovern and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery in 2013. This is what the Danes drank before they were Danes, over two thousand years before they were even Vikings, in a time before Christ or Odin, when they worshiped the sun. Brew it and think of her, a young woman with short blond hair and a braided skirt, who died in ca. 1370 BC.

Notes: Brew day was 8/3/2013. Ph was 5.3. Hit 153 and recirculated to get down to 151. I managed to pull 5.75 gallons exactly and everything went really smoothly. Fermentation started quickly, within about 6 hours, and pretty much stayed between 66-69F for the first few days. After that I let it drift up to about 72F. Took a gravity reading on 8/12 and it was 1.012 which is right on target. I dry hopped that day with 3oz of Mosaic. Cold crashed on 8/20/2013. I kegged this brew on 8/22/2013 and did the shake method to get up to a decent tasting level of carbonation. Beer turned out pretty well. It isn't all that bitter which is something that could potentially be kicked up a bit (maybe 5 or so IBU's) and it does have a slight dankness which is potentially from the Citra. Might alter those additions a bit. Overall a pretty tasty beer though. It is somewhat cloudy but that is hop residue. |
