Notes: Based on Former Tenant clones discussed here:
https://aussiehomebrewer.com/threads/former-tenant-red-ipa-modus-operandi.90865/page-4

After three weeks in the bottle, compared to a Former Tenant can dated 06/03/2018.

Appearance:
Colour is super close. The homebrew (HB) leans ever so slightly towards amber, while the FT has a genuine cherry red hue. Head on the FT is a more tan colour, compared to paler HB.

Aroma:
Not dissimilar! But there are distinct differences. FT smells of resinous pine, stewed fruit, ripe pineapple and dark Christmas cake. HB has a lighter, more green, tropical melon-fruit aroma, pineapple and passionfruit, and lacks the pine of the FT.

Taste:
Both beers are initially malty. FT has an early slightly sour acid, before rich palate-coating resin, big bread and biscuit and strong lingering bitterness. HB is sweeter, bitterness is similarly lingering but not as assertive up front, malt character a bit more restrained.

Overall:
Not a perfect clone, but the home brew is in the ballpark. I wanted to all-grain brew so I could make the beer I really wanted to drink, and this is almost as good as the real thing. I find the slightly more restrained, sweeter (but this is still a big red IPA!) character of the home-brew makes it easier to come back for more, but the FT is the beer that smacks you in the cheeks and makes you pay attention. I’m pretty stoked to have a couple of cases of this in store, especially when the FT is $13/500mL!

Notes: Pre-Brew: Oak Chips
THE NIGHT BEFORE: In a container with lid add oak chips and 1/3 cup
bourbon. Cover and shake to incorportate. Keep covered and let sit at room
temperature overnight.

Pre-Brew: Sanitize
You might be surprised to learn that sanitization might actually be the most
important thing here. If things are not completely clean, your yeast will die.
You will not drink good beer, and the next few steps will only provide you with
a valuable learning experience instead of a decidedly more valuable drinking
experience.
• Dissolve half of your sanitzer packet with a gallon of water in a container.
Save the second half for when you bottle.
• Soak everything you are going to use, rinse with water, and let air dry on
some paper towels. If it isn’t totally dry when you are ready to start don’t
worry.
• Keep the extra sanitizer in a container for now. Chances are you’ll want to
re-sanitize something later.

• NOTE: Follow the instructions on your sanitizer. Sanitizers are
different. C-Brite should be rinsed off. StarSan does not need to be.
Brooklyn Brew Shop’s Sanitizer is also no rinse. One packet makes two
gallons. Use half for brewing and half for bottling.

The Mash
• Heat 2.25 quarts (2.1 liters) of water to 160°F (71°C).
• Add grain (This is called “mashing in.” Take note of jargon. Or don’t).
• Mix gently with spoon or spatula until mash has consistency of oatmeal.
Add water if too dry or hot. Temperature will drop to ~150°F (66°C).
• Cook for 60 minutes at 144-152°F (63-68°C). Stir every 10 minutes, and use
your thermometer to take temperature readings from multiple locations.
• You likely don’t need to apply heat constantly. Get it up to temperature,
then turn the heat off. Monitor, stir, and adjust accordingly to keep in range.
• After 60 minutes, heat to 170°F (77°C) while stirring constantly (“Mashing
Out”).

The Sparge
• Heat additional 4 quarts (3.8 liters) of water to 170°F (77°C).
• Set up your “lauter tun” (a strainer over a pot).
• Carefully add the hot grain mash to the strainer, collecting the liquid that
passes through.
• This liquid is called “wort” (pronounced “wert”). It will be your beer.
• Slowly and evenly pour 170°F (77°C) water over the mash to extract the
grain’s sugars.
• You want to collect 5 quarts (4.75 liters) of wort. You will lose about 20%
to evaporation later on, so you want to start with a bit more than you’ll end
with.
• Re-circulate wort through grain once.

The Boil
• In a pot, heat wort until it boils.
• Keep boiling until you’ve hit the “hot break” (Wort will foam - you may
need to reduce heat slightly so it doesn’t boil over.)
• Stir occasionally. All you want is a light boil – too hot and you lose
fermentable sugars and volume.
• The boil will last 60 minutes. Start your timer and add in the rest of the
ingredients at these times:
- Add 1/3 Golding Hops 30 minutes into boil.
- Add 1/3 Golding Hops 55 minutes into boil.
- Add remaining Golding Hops 59 minutes into boil.
- At 60 minutes turn off heat. Dissolve Candi Sugar. Add Bourbon
Soaked Oak Chips.
• Twenty percent of the wort will have evaporated in this step leaving you
with 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of wort. If your boil was a bit high, the surface area
of your pot extra large, or you brewed on a really hot day, you may have
less than the full amount. Don’t worry – you just reduced your beer a bit
too much, but you can add more water in the next step.

Fermentation
• Place brew pot in an ice bath until it cools to 70°F (21°C).
• Once cooled, place strainer over funnel and pour your beer into the
glass fermenter. Yeast needs oxygen. The strainer helps aerate your wort
and clarify your beer (as well as catch any sediment from going into the
fermenter). Add tap water to bring wort up to 1 Gallon mark if level is low.
• “Pitch” yeast. (Toss the whole packet in.)
• Shake aggressively. You’re basically waking up the yeast and getting more
air into the wort.
• Attach sanitized screw-top stopper to bottle. Slide rubber tubing no more
than 1” (2.5 cm) into the stopper and place the other end in small bowl
of sanitizer solution. You’ve just made a “blow-off tube”. It allows CO2 to
escape.
• Let sit for two or three days or until vigorous bubbling subsides. This is
when fermentation is highest. You may notice bubbles and foam at the
top of the beer. After bubbling calms down, clean tubing and ready your
airlock.
• Sanitize, then re-assemble airlock, filling up to line with sanitizer.
• Insert airlock into hole in stopper.
• Keep in a dark place at room temperature for two weeks without disturbing
other than to show off to friends. (If beer is still bubbling, leave sitting until
it stops.)
• In the meantime, drink beer with self-closing swing tops, or ask for empties
at a bar that has some. If you have a bottle capper and caps, you can save
two six packs of non-twistoff beers instead.

Two Weeks Later: Bottling
• Thoroughly rinse bottles with water, removing any sediment.
• Mix remaining sanitizer with water.
• Fill each bottle with a little sanitizer and shake. Empty after two minutes,
rinse with cold water and dry upside down.
• Dissolve 3 tablespoons maple syrup with 1/2 cup water. Pour into a
sanitized pot. You will be siphoning your beer into the same pot in the next
steps.
- Carbonation comes from adding sugar when bottling, so if you filled
your jug with less than the full gallon in the last step, use less maple
syrup when bottling. Using the full amount can result in your beer
being over-carbonated.
• Siphoning (It all happens pretty fast. You may want to practice on a pot of
water a few times.) To see it in action first, watch the How to Bottle video at
brooklynbrewshop.com/instructions.
A. Attach open tubing clamp to tubing.
B. Fill tubing with sanitizer.
C. Attach sanitized tubing to the short curved end of your sanitized
racking cane. Attach the black tip to the other end - it will help
prevent sediment from getting sucked up. It will probably be a snug
fit, but you can get it on there.
D. Pinch tubing clamp closed.
E. Remove screw-cap stopper and place racking cane into jug, just
above the sediment at the bottom (“trub”).
F. Lower end of tubing not connected to racking cane into sink.
Suction will force beer up and through the racking cane and tubing.
Open tubing clamp, let sanitizer flow into sink until beer just starts
to flow out of the tubing, then clamp shut. Open clamp on tubing,
allowing beer to flow into pot with sugar solution. Tilt jug when beer
level is getting low, but be careful in not sucking up the trub.
• Siphon beer from pot into bottles, pinching tube clamp to stop flow after
each bottle.
• Close bottles.
• Store in a dark place for 2 weeks

Two Weeks Later: Enjoying
• Put beers in the fridge the night before you drink them.
• Drink. Share with friends if you’re the sharing type.

Flasker eller fat
En vekt

Hva sier bryggerne i Mack Mikrobryggeri om ølet sitt?

Ølet er en belgisk dubbel og er gjæret med ekte klostergjær fra Belgia. Det er 8,2% alkohol og vi har måttet bruke 40 kg sukker og 3 kg sirup for å nå helt dit. Ølet er fyldig og kompleks, men nogenlunde balansert - til en belgisk dubbel å være i alle fall.

Etter å ha fått kloa i ekte belgisk klostergjær bestemte vi oss for å gå all-in! Vi kjørte på med omtrent så mye malt som brygghuset vårt tåler og supplerte med 40 kg sukker og 3 kg sirup. Til bryggingen vurderte vi å spare hår til en skikkelig munkekrans, men fant ut at det ville tatt alt for lang tid. Så for å virkelig få klosterfølelsen måtte det bli sølibat.

Slik bruker du dette settet

Les gjennom hele guiden før du begynner.

I dette settet så har du en sekk med 6.75 kilo malt. Her må du også kjøpe en kilo med ordinært bordsukker fra butikken. Før du begynner så varmer du opp rundt 24L vann til 71.5C. Når dette er varmet opp så heller du malten i vannet. Ta temperaturmåling og sjekk om du er rundt den mesketemperaturen som er i oppskriften, men hvis du ligger utenfor så er ikke dette så farlig. La stå i 60 minutt, hvor du rører godt hvert 15. minutt. Ta temperaturmålinger samtidig. Hvis det blir litt kaldt så tilsett kokende vann til du kommer tilbake opp til 66C, men det er ikke så farlig så lenge du holder deg over 61-62C.

Når det har gått 60 minutter så tar du posen med malt ut av kjelen og setter den på en rist eller noe lignende over kjelen. Skyll da med vann til du oppnår 28L i kjelen. I 36l-kjelene du får fra Kjeller 5 så tilsvarer omtrent 1 cm en liter. Du kan varme dette vannet opp til rundt 70C, men du kan også skylle med kaldt vann, det vil da bare ta lengre tid å koke opp vørteren senere og du vil få bittelitt mindre sukker ut av prosessen. Du vil sannsynligvis behøve rundt 35L vann totalt. Dvs. så må du nok skylle med rundt 11L vann, men dette vil variere litt.

Ta av rundt 100ml og putt på en kald plass. Dette skal du bruke til å måle hvor mye sukker det er i vørteren før kok. Vent til væsken er 20C. Hell væsken i måleglasset og putt oppi hydrometeret (glasspinnen med tall på). Skriv ned det tallet som vørteren går opp til på oppskriften, ved “Boil Gravity” på oppskriftsarket. Dette er det tallet du helst skal være nær. Hvis dette er innenfor 5-7 grader av hva du skal ha, så er alt fint.

Begynn å koke opp. Her kan du ha lokket delvis på for at det skal gå raskere. Når vørteren nærmer seg kok så pass på! Her kan det koke over. Når det har kokt opp så tilsetter du den første humlen i oppskriften (22g Perle). Fra nå skal det koke i 60 minutter. Her skal det være rullende kok. Det betyr at det skal bevege seg synlig i kjelen, men det behøver ikke å fosskoke. Det skal dampe bort rundt 3 liter på denne tiden. Når det er gått 50 minutter så tilsetter du den neste humlen(16g Perle). Når det er gått 60 minutter fra starten av koken, så slår du av varmen og skrur på vannet til vørterkjøleren.

Nå skal du sette på kjøling. Ølet burde kjøles ned så fort som mulig, så hvis du har en dyppkjøler eller lignende så er det bra. Da putter du dyppkjøleren i mens du rører rundt til du oppnår en temperatur på rundt 20C. putt Kjøleren i når det er 5-15 minutter igjen av koketiden.

Om du ikke har kjøleredskap så så kan du til nød sette ølet en plass med rundt 18-21C med lokket på og vente til neste dag. Dette er ikke optimalt, men vil fungere. Ta temperaturmåling før du putter i gjæren, hvis det er for varmt så vent lenger.

Mens du kjøler ned så kan du gjøre klart gjæringskaret. Vask det først med PBW. Skyll av. Bland deretter ut Star-San etter anmerkningene på beholderen. Pass på at det dekker hele innsiden av gjæringskaret og sprut gjerne litt på kranen til kjelen. Hell middelet ut av bøtten og fyll denne med vørteren din. Ta ut 100ml vørter og ta en hydrometermåling av det. Skriv tallet du får ved Original Gravity. Dette bestemmer hvor sterkt ølet blir til slutt.

Nå kan du enten riste vørteren eller røre kraftig i denne med noe du har desinfisert. Her vil du ha mye oksygen/luft inn i vørteren.

La bøtta stå på et rom der det er rundt 18-21 grader. Etter 2 uker så kan du fylle ølen på flasker. Dette gjør du ved å vaske og desinfisere en bøtte med kran. Du koker opp 3-4dl med vann med 6g per liter øl du tror du kommer til å få til slutt. Se på siden av bøtten hvor mye du har, trekk fra 2-3l med gjær og trub i bunnen av gjæringskaret. Putt denne sukkerlaken i bunnen av det rene og desinfiserte karet med kran. Bruk silikonslange eller hevert og før over ølet fra det du har gjæret i. Husk å vask og desinfiser denne også! Pass på at det ikke plasker og at du ikke får med så mye gjær. Litt går bra, men prøv å unngå det.

Fyll på rengjorte og desinfiserte flasker. De fleste infeksjoner skjer i dårlig vaskede flasker, så pass på at de er rene! Helt rene flasker kan du kjøpe på Kjeller 5, hvis du er usikker. Rene flasker er det bare å fylle med litt star-san og riste slik at hele innsiden av flasken er dekket. Til denne oppskriften trenger du nok rundt 44-48 flasker.

Fyll flaskene fra kranen på gjæringskaret. Her kan du fylle opp slik at du har ca. 2-3cm luft i toppen av flaska. Putt korker på og la stå på en varm plass. Hvis du ikke har korkemaskin e.l. så kan du kjøpe patentkork-flasker på Kjeller 5, disse så “flipper” du bare korka på og slipper å bruke korker e.l.

La stå i minst 2-3 uker på et varmt sted. Deretter sett dem kaldt så lenge du klarer å holde deg!

(Dersom du har lyst til å få en enda mer autentisk Dobbel Sølibat så kan du scanne QR-koden på etiketten som står på settet. da får du opp en spilleliste med all musikken som de spiller til Dobbel Sølibat mens de brygger den. Hvis du spiller denne under bryggingen så vil du få et blodautentisk Dobbel Sølibat-øl!)
