A lager fermentation consists of these 3 phases:
primary fermentation : main fermentation of the fermentable extract. The bulk of the CO2 and alkohol are created here. Chill the beer to at/below pitching temperature, 9–10°C.
Pitch the yeast and wait 24–48 hours for fermentation to begin. Maintain the temperature for two weeks.
maturation : the yeast is allowed to clean up some of its byproducts like diacetyl (butterscotch flavor) and acetaldehyde (green apple flavor). After active fermentation slows, raise the temperature over several days to 18°C. Allow the beer to sit there for two or three days to clean up the diacetyl.
cold stabilization (lagering) : the low temperature causes haze forming proteins and polyphenols come out of solution and drop out of suspension. There is also a mellowing of flavors and some formation of esters happening. The latter becomes only significant after more than 12 weeks. Lower the temperature to 1°C to 2°C by reducing temp. 1°C per day. Lager for 6 weeks |

Notes: 1.) Blueberry Puree: Crush 5 lbs of frozen wild blueberries and macerate with 2.5 oz of sugar for 24 hours. Add to Primary when the SG has dropped to the 1.016-1.018 range. This will restart/spike fermentation and help to scrub any oxygen that may get added with this late addition.
2.) Using 2 packets of the Philly Wild Sour yeast will create a very large pucker factor. The sweetness from the lactose will help smooth out some of that.

Notes: From AHA recipe https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/summer-cloud-belgian-ipa/
Changed 10 day dry hop and zest addition to krausen (~2 Days) to reduce oxidation potential.
Zest is Mandarin or Orange.
Water profile in recipe is built from Cleveland water which is unknown. Going with light color hoppy and building from RO. |

Notes: US-05 rehydrated. In fermenter 14 June 2015.
Updated IBU calcs based on 9 minute extra boil time for each addition accounting for extra 8%(?) utilisation during the whirlpool stand.
Whirlpool hop-stand additions for 30 minutes starting after flameout at 95c.
No hop bag in boil - hop pellets straight into boil-strained through sieve into fermenter.
Dry hopped in stocking. Squeezed twice.
2 litre ice block to chill boil wort.
Bottled 4 July 2015.
Cold conditioned in work fridge for 2 weeks from 17 July.
Early taste - good but a little too much crystal. Sweetness may fade. |

Weihenstephan Hefe Weissbier
38l water treated with 1 x campden tablet and 10ml lactic acid and 9ml AMS.
Carry out alkalinity and calcium test for further info
Alkalinity 6.4 = 86ppm so a bit high
Calcium test 7.50 = 125ppm so pretty good
Dough in at 40, 20 min rest at 43 degrees
Add 1.5l water mash at 67 for 50
Add 1.5l water mash at 72 for 5 mins
Mash at 77 for 5 mins
No protofloc
At start of boil appeared to be approx 33litres of wort took gravity reading and it was 1.033!!
Decided to switch to a 2 hour boil to increase the gravity so reduced wort to approx 25 litres
cooled to 21 degrees and whirlpooled, managed to squeeze 20l of wort into the fermenter
OG now 1.052
Pitched yeast, (nutrient sachet hadn't dispersed into yeast properly as it was folded over)
Placed into fermentation chamber @ 18.5 degrees
Ferment at 18.5 for 3 days then 20 degrees for 2 days, 21 for 2 days
After 8 days checked gravity and it was 1.011
Racked into keg with 150g brewing sugar ready to be bottled.
ABV 5.4%
After 36 hours in keg transferred to 27 x bottles
Placed in conditioning chamber @ 18 degrees
Would probably go for 35 litres water only next time as ended up with too much wort after mash.
