Notes: Loosely based on Lorena "Yooper" Evans, http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=210376 and inspired by Oskar Blues "death by Coconut." Tweaked using a different yeast, and a different grain bill. Cold steep the roast & crystal in 1 gallon room temp water. Rinse & squeeze to get a total of 2-3 qts of dark brew to add to kettle near flame out. Will try 1st recipe with 6.5# MO + .5# GP, then switch to 7.0# GP. Will ferment using STC1000+ ALE PROFILE (Pr4)(16+ days)
Pitch yeast @ <70°
SP0: 66°
dh0: 120 (5 day ferment)
SP1: 66°
dh1: 24 (1 day ramp up)
SP2: 72°
dh2: 72 (3 day ferment/D-rest)
SP3: 72°
dh3: 48 (2 day ramp down)
SP4: 36° (Crash, fine, and keg)
dh4: 0
The OG came out really low (1.049,) so I added 1.5 lbs honey (42ppg) to the fermenter, which should give me an additional 10.5 points, or about 1.060. That'll get me closer. |

Notes: Brew Day: March 11, 2014.
One boilover - my first!
OG was only 1.048, way below my estimate of min. 1.053...can't explain why. I was kind of drunk and pitched my yeast before extracting the sample for gravity measurement. Maybe that? Probably not? Did I remove too much yeast in my turkey baster? I'll find out if it doesn't ferment / ferment enough.
03/13: Vigorous fermentation!! The airlock I bought didn't have the bottom cut out so no CO2 wasn't escaping - it looked like it was about to blow. I considered a blow-off tube, but I had roughly 1.5 gallons of head-space and didn't think it was necessary. So I put a real airlock back in and the bubbling was very intense. Probably 2 bubbles a second!!
03/25: Bought 4.4 lbs of Canadian wild blueberries from Hartmans for $17. Pre-frozen. After much deliberation, I decided to heat them up for 15 mins at 170F. I let it cool to probably 35C and added it to secondary. I racked beer over top of it and inserted air lock. I probably lost about 0.2 lbs of berries during transfer (messy!). Im really excited to see how this turns out.
Expectations: Hopefully wheat extract pairs well with the blueberry, amber LME and crystal 40L will hopefully add some sweetness and colour, flowery and spicy notes from cascade hops, 3787 yeast will impart some complex fruity esters and phenolics as usually seen in Belgian dubbels or triples, finally 4.4 lbs of blueberries in secondary for two weeks should hopefully impart a subtle to moderate blueberry taste and colour.
Bottled on April 6, 2014. Forgot to take gravity reading - stupid me! I expect it will be 5.0% based on OG, but I can't be sure of the attenuation.
Final bottle on 07/20:
Last bottle is still overcarbed.
Appearance: Deep dark dirty purple. More brown than purple. Probably because of the crystal malt. Dont use next time. Long lasting head, very bubbly.
Aroma: Primarily fruity, slight blueberry.
Taste: Hard to get over the carbonation but notes of dark fruit. Very crisp as a result of the carb.
Mouthfeel: Very light body, very prickly.
Overall: Besides the overcarb, not a terribly bad beer. Ease up on the crystal next time. No amber next time either. Just wheat and 2-row. It makes it too complex, and not the good type. |

Alterations and Changes:
Brown Malt is swapped swapped out lbs for bls with Munich 20
Added a lot more 2-row - This would make it more foreign extra
Before Brewing lookup the Invert #3/#4. - at 3 lbs total (1 lbs. at #4 and 2 lbs. at #3). This has been swapped for belgian candy sugar. I made some really shitty invert sugar 3# that might be a bit dark.

Notes: You want a high CaCl for this style. My water goes like this, and should be a safe bet if you havent tested your water (per 5 gallons):
3g CaCl
3g Gypsum
0.5 g Epsom Salts
If the pH is too high, this usually means adding acid malt (~1% of the grist for every intended .1 drop)
If the pH is too low I add chalk (which should ideally be dissolved in carbonated water first) or baking soda (which can be added directly to the mash).
