Notes: Batch size: 3.4G
Grain Bill: 8lbs
Boil time: 60 mins
Trub Loss: 0.2G
Mash Thickness: 1.5 qts/lbs
Target mash temp: 152

Wort Shrinkage: 4%
Grain Absorption: 0.13 gal/lbs
% Boiloff: 10%

Total water needed: 5.14G
Mash: 2.66G
Sparge: 2.55G
Strike temp: 164.33F
Pre-boil wort: 4.17G

1. Start with strike water of 10.1L (2.66G) @ 164.33F.
2. Put in 8 lbs of grains.
3. Rest at 152F for 60 mins.
4. Assuming grain absorption of 0.13G/lb, should end up with 1.62G in brew kettle.
5. Prepare for dunk sparge by adding 9.7L (2.55G) to secondary brew kettle. Add grain bag for 15 minutes @ 170F. Squeeze.
6. Begin partial mash out in primary brew kettle for 15 minutes @ 170F.
7. Add sparge water to primary brew kettle. This should result in 4.51G of pre-boil wort.

Took twenty minutes to get to 164F. Didn't drop below 160. 158 after 5 minutes. 155 after 10 minutes. 150 after 50 minutes.

Shit, forgot to add 0.25 lbs of flaked wheats.

Hydrometer is reading 1.04 in water.

Took 25 minutes to boil.

Ended up with 4.6 gallons of pre-boil wort... Hydrometer reads 1.04 @ 118F = 1.048...way below my target OG. If I drop 4 points, its actually 1.044. If 1.044 with 4.7 gallons of PB wort, then efficiency is 75.5%, not bad. Will add 0.75 lbs of corn sugar @ 15 minutes to bump OG.

52 minutes after boil to get to 80F with ice bath.

Now have 1.070 OG with 4.0 gallons of beer! I guess its more like 1.066 based on calibration... That is 77% efficiency!

6 days after pitching, FG is at 1.020 - two gravity points higher than expected. 72% attenuation versus 70%, not so bad. Started to dry hop with 2 oz.

Bottle Carbonation: 2.4 Volumes of C02. 2.9 oz of corn sugar with a cup of boiled water for 3.5 gallons.

First taste on November 13, 2014 - 15 days after bottling. App: completely opaque. Decent head if poured right into clean glass. Aroma: fruity and grassy notes. Taste: Bitter and dry. Fruity. MF: high carbonation. Light-medium body. Overall: really good! even after two weeks in the bottles.

Description: Find the lightness in this deep, dark beer. While it may be completely opaque, reminiscent of a black hole, the aroma and taste will remind you a beautiful nebula, similar to that of an IPA with a dry bitterness coupled with fruity and grassy hoppy notes. Not for the faint of heart. Drink if you dare. 6.1% abv, 50 IBUs.

Tasting on november 25: off-white head that fades quickly. Extremely black with hoppy, dry taste and bitter aftertaste.

Notes: This is a slightly modified version of one of my older recipes that I have decided to share. Not a lot of "Really good" Cherry Wheat beers out there but this one is the best one I have found thus far. Citra Hops really makes the difference here especially in the dry hop, for this recipe I went light but for those true hop heads out there you can go more but remember you also have the equivalent of 2 gallons of tart cherry juice in this batch.

Keep in primary for at least 7 (recommend 10 or more) days, then add you cherry juice concentrate and dry hops to the bottom of your secondary before transferring. Remember that dry hopping plus the added cherry concentrate may slow the fermentation process down so be ready for that and don't rush it. It should take about 3 weeks to complete but any time your working with fruit juice in beer it is a good idea to check it with a refractometer or hydrometer to make sure fermentation is complete.

Bottle/keg and carbonate to your liking and enjoy...

Notes: 2024-05 Have made this a few times. I find that my efficiency was too good so it was coming out near 7% so I cut 1 lb of 2 row to get it nearer to 6.

2022ish Made this from a kit the first time. All grain was amazing. Second time was from extract kit I ordered by accident. The extract version came out significantly more malty and dark, but I hadn't done an extract batch since the first time I brewed (ever).
This time I didn't have Crystal 40, but I did have Fawcett Crystal I (45ºL, medium crystal at NB) and my Centennial was 8.7 not 11.1 AA, adding some more at bittering to get to about 45 IBU Rager.

As a side note, I find that centennial clogs up poppets and racking arms more than any other hop once hydrated. I recommend a filter of some sort and a larger one at that.

Notes: Social kitchen Brut IPA recipe ( the original Brut IPA) as published by KIM STURDAVANT in Craft Beer and Brewing.

ALL-GRAIN
Batch size: 5 gallons (19 liters)
Brewhouse efficiency: 72%
OG: 1.054
FG: 0
IBUs: 25
ABV: 7% ABV

MALT/GRAIN BILL
8 lb Pilsner malt
1 lb flaked corn
1 lb flaked rice

HOPS AND ADDITIONS SCHEDULE
.17 oz Mosaic [12.25% AA] at 15 minutes
2.5 oz Mosaic [12.25% AA] at Whirlpool
7.5 oz Mosaic [12.25% AA] at Dry Hop

YEAST
Neutral Ale yeast
.65 ml Amyloglucosidase

DIRECTIONS AND BREWER'S NOTES
Social Kitchen and Brewery's brewmaster Kim Sturdavant says: "I would encourage folks to add the enzyme in the mash, shoot for a mash temp of 143 - 146 to not denature the enzyme. The equivalent of 20mls / 100#s of grain is enough. Add the enzyme 1/3 of the way into mashing to ensure the mash isn't too hot to denature the enzyme. Stir very well and let the mash have an hour-long rest to let the enzyme do its work."

"The other option would be to add the enzyme to the kettle while lautering, then hold off on heating the kettle until all wort is in and has 30 minutes of contact with the enzyme at around 145 degrees (lower would be fine, too)."

"I know a lot of homebrewers just throw grain on top of all their mash water, so this option makes more sense to them. I preferred not to mash this way, when I was a homebrewer... I think the conversion temp is more consistent adding grain and water at the same time, I also like being able to react to the consistency so I can end up the thickness I want."

Notes: Spargeless. Had a few stuck mashes at start of recirculation - not sure what was the cause. Mixed everything up after a good stir and gravity immediately started rising rapidly. Used gloves and plate to push all remaining wort out of mash tun after mashout. Will likely sparge for next batch.
