General Instructions:
Mash and boil are straightforward. Add the candy sugar with 5 minutes left. Pitch yeast at 75 and keep it warm for a couple of weeks, then let it sit undisturbed for a month or two until the brett is done. And for heaven's sake don't fear the 3724! I didn't dry hop this beer, but it would be very good with some dry hopping. You could do Amarillo to boost the citrus, EKG to compliment the brett, or more Saaz.
BREWDAY NOTES:
Actual SG: 1.063
If we get down to 1.002: 8% ABV
Pitched yeast at approx 75F. Placed in Living room at 74F |

Notes: This batch of Adirondack Cream Ale is being brewed on 1/18/2016 with two changes from last years brewing of Adirondack Cream Ale on 3/5/2015.
Original Gravity where I buy the ingredients was out of 6 row so I substituted 2 row for 6 row in the original recipe from March 2015. This change in grain concentration and grain type may affect the flavor of the final beer. Who knows.
The second change is using another .50 ounce of Cluster in the last 20 minutes. Lets see if this makes a difference in the final product.
I was going to use a yeast started but opted not to due to the projected OG to be below the limit of when Whitelab says to use a starter (OG 1.070) I don't get to use my cool Erlenmeyer flask this go around.
1/25/16:
Racked off into glass carboy. Gravity an unbelievable 1.008. Checked hydrometer for accuracy at room temp tap water was 1.00 gm/ml. But it should not go that low given the grain bill. Last year the same thing happened I checked calibrations then too. All was well.
Current ABV calculations are coming out above 8 ABV
Set Carboy on kitchen counter for a day to check for activity and then into a cold closet to rest.
* After two hours the decanted beer showed no signs of restart so I added a low dose of LD Carlson;s Yeast Energizer (Nutrient Booster). Normal dose would be 2.5 teaspoons. I had only 1 1/2 teaspoons on hand so I used it.
Checked gravity on 2/4/2016 and found it to be 1.006 g/ml. I may soon.
Making the ABV 8.93 % Alcohol
Attenuation was 91% I think it is done.
2/7/16 - Fermentation not done. Witnessed airlock movement this morning. Keeping the Cream Ale in the glass carboy another week.
Projected bottling: Feb 15th
Projected aging in fermenters total: 4 weeks. 1 week in Primary and three in secondary carboy
2/14/16 - Racked off beer from glass carboy to bottling bucket. I have 5 gallons of beer to bottle. Checked gravity
OG - 1.74
FG - 1.002
Calc ABV - 9.45%
Used 3/4 cup Extra light DME boiled then put on an ice bath.
4.9 Gallons bottled.
6, 22oz Craft Brew bottles
36, 12 oz
1, Grolsh bottle
1 12 oz pour for the brewmiester
1 busted bottle
= 4.9 gallons
9.45% is kicking my ass, but I don't know it yet.
Current notes as a raw beer without carbonation.
Smells like a Cream Ale and a Saison.
Nice even finish maybe leaning dry but currently well balanced.

Notes: Infusion mashed at 152 and/or 154. The electric said 152 at the top. Figured since it is a colder day that it would drop down a bit. Efficiency was 4% lower than expected. I am figuring the yeast might make up for it and attenuate a little more than 75%. |

Notes: use any bittering hop for boil. I used northern brewer
dry hop in primary once it reaches 70F or lower when you pitch yeast for 3 days
Heat 3.3 Gallons to 162, heat 3.5 gallons to 172 for sparge
Mix in grain. Draw 1 gallon from strike water and pour on top of grain to help mix in all grain - mash @152
at 30 min mark, extract 1 gallon and mix back into grain bed mash 30 minutes more
raise bed and drain. Collect 1 gallon and pour back on grain bed
ever 10 minutes pour 1 gallon of sparge water on grain bed
collect 5.5 to 5.75 gallon ( .25 extract keeps sluge at bottom of brewers edge and not in primary)
add hops and other additives as noted
boil 1 hour
after cool dry hop
move to secondary 4 days later

Notes: Use pure unsweetened cranberry juice (such as Knudsen or Lakewood), not the stuff you drink for breakfast. Add at flameout to retain the flavor.
I racked to the secondary after 10 days, then waited a week before bottling.
Looks and tastes true to the style, except it has just a hint of cranberry. Opened at a Christmas gathering and it was far more popular than any of the commercial beers offered! |
