It’s issue 100! Cue the confetti and the noisemakers. I guess we should make a celebratory homebrew. Looking back, it’s apparent I’ve been wrong about the full title of my column all these years. I thought BYOB meant “Brewing Yummy Odd Beer” not “Brew Your Own Beer.” Awkward… but either way, the brew must go on! This month, let’s take a page from one of my brewing mentors and brew a chocolate cake beer.

Cake is a mixture of wheat flour, sugar, flavorings, eggs and butter. The last two ingredients contain copious fats that make it a complicated beer additive. Yet to brew a true chocolate cake beer, one must have chocolate cake.

Order a full sheet cake from a baker. Ask for no frosting or remove it. (No judgment if you eat it.) Add the cake, crumbled, to 1–2 quarts of boiling water. Stir and boil until the cake is completely dissolved. Simmer gently for 15 minutes. Cover and cool the cake slurry overnight in the fridge. Scrape off the fat cap.

Add the defatted cake slurry to your Stout mash and proceed as normal. I learned this from fellow Falcon M.B. Raines, who did it to celebrate the birthday of Doug King with his leftover cake and has used it to great effect several times since. Here’s to a few hundred more Yummy Odd Beers.

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.

Last batch went really well. Going to up the yeast nutes and whirlfloc. Adding 5 g of ascorbic acid to the mash as an antioxidant protector.
Previous batch.
First batch went really quickly. Was definitely in the same vein as AB, but not close due to the caramel malt shifts. Redoing with the right mix 90/10 and all chinook. Ran out of London Ale Lallemand, subbing Windsor.

Want to stick with older recipes and modern clones but don't have enough Special B or Chinook.
Trad recipe is 90% Brewer's Malt 10% Special B, 90 IBUs of Chinook with 4 additions 90, 45, 15, 0. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/can-you-brew-it-recipe-for-stone-arrogant-bastard.176191/

Going to try and fake Special B with dark British Crystal and add some caraaroma. Hops will be harder. Bittering with Bitter Gold and finishing with Chinook might be the way to go.

Third batch swapping 1 pack of Windsor for Notty.

Notes: Really clear right from the fermentor, nice tasting and very clean, as about as good as you can get without a lager yeast, defiantly a winner beer

now in order to get this right I used the ramping up method, start cold at 59, let it set for 5 days then ramp to 65 go three days then 70 and go three more days without opening then keg and let the beer sit at 34 while carbing slowly at 12....after 5 days on co2 it was Hell of a Kolsch

Notes: Heat 1 Gallon water to 110 F and mix with Honey in a 7 Gal fermenting bucket. Shake to thoroughly mix and aerate. Add yeast nutrient and additional water 1 Gallon at a time, aerating after each addition, to a total of 6 Gal.

Use 1/4 cup of must to rehydrate Lalvin D-47 yeast. Chop raisins and cranberries, and add to must. Add yeast; primary fermentation should take between 14-21 days.

Rack to secondary with 2 Lbs of cranberries, ginger, orange peel, and cinnamon in a sanitized mesh bag for 10-14 days.

Rack to tertiary with pectic enzyme and fining agent for 7 days. Cold Crash if necessary for clarity before bottling. Add Potassium Sorbate at bottling to kill yeast and backsweeten if necessary.
