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: Batch split in half. One half fermented with Wyeast French Saison and the other with cultured Saison du Pont and Saison de Lente mixed with a little peche brett tossed in on brew day for good measure.

Brew day - 4/6/13 - OG 1.065
Gravity going into secondary was 1.008 and was surprised to see that it had dropped even further to 1.003 at bottling.

Notes: Alex B's recipe, mashed higher on his advice.

Subbed out 3 pounds flaked wheat with 2 pounds wheat and 1 pound flaked oats, because I noobed up the order.

Replaced noble hops woth Magnum because of frustration with dealing with whole hops

9/10/2016: has a kind of unpleasant smell, hard to put my finger on it. maybe a kind of chemically/solventy kind of thing? taste is lightly tart, mostly clean, not much going on yet.

Notes: Brewed using the 20L Braumeister.

Great body with nice mouth feel. Perfect lacing on the glass, slightly sweet with caramel notes from the amber malt. Good balance from the hops, they work well together. Not bitter but lovely hoppy after notes on the tongue. Not much on the noise which is weird.

Notes: Recipe adjusted for bottling i.e. OG left 5 points below required to allow for extra provided by bottling sugar. Same applies to ABV - adjusted for extra 0.5% at bottling.

Briess Pils malt used but Extra Lite shown in recipe for higher PPG.

Minimash with 0.375kg of LME at 67 degrees for 45 mins. This high mash temp is to get mouthfeel be retaining some of the low temp sugars. Check OG after mash. Mash OG 1 point below.

2 + 1 litre ice and some chilled water required to quick chill wort.

Aerate wort with air stone for 10 minutes. Yeast enzyme in boil.

Overfilled fermenter by 0.5L and missed 1062OG.

Fresh pack of Abbaye Yeast used. Pitched at 16-17c on 30 August. Kept low for 2-3 days and then allowed to increase to 19c and then moved to warmer kitchen after 6-7 days.

Racked to secondary on 9 September.

Bottled 19 September 2015.
