Notes: Uma das pricipais diferenças é o uso de trigo não malteado, aveia e sobretudo temperos como coentro, cascas de laranja e até mesmo camomila.
Esses ingredientes produzem uma cerveja de cor amarelo pálido, com uma turbidez permanente7 (que faz com que fique “branca”), boa retenção de espuma e um caráter delicadamente condimentado. É leve, refrescante e muito carbonatada, apresentando um final seco e moderadamente ácido. Seu teor alcoólico é baixo e os lúpulos são usados com discrição, sendo portanto uma cerveja para ser tomada jovem.
Lubliner/Saaz/Tettnang/
rolled oats - Aveia em Flocos
flaked wheat - Trigo em Flocos
==== Descrição do estilo =====
16A. Witbier Aroma: Dulçor moderado (frequentemente com leves notas de mel e/ou baunilha) com suaves aromáticos de grãos e especiarias do trigo, frequentemente com um pouco de acidez. Moderado perfume de coentro, muitas vezes com notas complexas de ervas, especiarias ou apimentadas em segundo plano. Moderado aroma frutado cítrico de laranja. Suave aroma de especiarias e ervas proveniente dos lúpulos é opcional, mas nunca deve dominar as outras características. Sem diacetil. Aromas vegetais similares a aipo, tempero verde ou presunto são inapropriados. Especiarias devem se misturar aos aromas frutados, florais e doces, não devendo ser excessivamente fortes. Aparência: Coloração de palha muito pálido a dourado claro. Intensa turbidez oriunda das moléculas de amido e/ou das leveduras, que conferem aparência leitosa e amarela-esbranquiçada. Colarinho denso e branco como mousse, com muito boa persistência. Sabor: Dulçor agradável (frequentemente lembrando mel e/ou baunilha) com frutado cítrico de laranja. Refrescância com final bem definido (crisp) com uma finalização seca, frequentemente com acidez agradável (tart). Pode ter um leve sabor de trigo. Opcionalmente pode ter acidez láctica bem leve. Sabores herbáceos e condimentados, que podem incluir coentro e outras especiarias, são comuns, mas devem ser sutis e equilibrados, sem predominar. Umsabor terroso/condimentado proveniente do lúpulo deve ser de baixo a nenhum e, se notado, não deve se sobrepor ao das especiarias. O amargor de lúpulo é de baixo a médio-baixo (como em uma Hefeweizen), não interfere com os sabores refrescantes de fruta e especiarias, tampouco deve persistir no final. Amargor da parte branca da casca de laranja não deve estar presente. Sabores vegetais, similares a aipo, tempero verde, presunto ou sabão são inapropriados. Sem diacetil. Sensação na Boca: Corpo de médio-leve a médio, frequentemente com suavidade e leve cremosidade do trigo não maltado e por vezes aveia. Apesar do corpo e da cremosidade, termina seca e muitas vezes um pouco ácida. A intensa carbonatação confere sensação de efervescência. Final refrescante, devido à carbonatação, com baixa acidez e ausência de amargor. Sem aspereza ou adstringência proveniente da parte branca da casca de laranja. Não deve ser excessivamente seca e rala, nem densa e pesada. Impressão Geral: Uma ale a base de trigo, moderadamente forte, refrescante, elegante e saborosa. História: Estilo de cerveja com 400 anos de idade e que morreu nos anos 50. Foi, mais tarde, ressuscitada por Pierre Celis em Hoegaarden e cresceu firmemente em popularidade com o tempo. Comentários: A presença, característica e o grau de especiarias e acidez lática variam. Cervejas excessivamente condimentadas e/ou ácidas não são bons exemplos para o estilo. Certas variedades de coentro podem ter caráter inapropriado de presunto ou aipo. A cerveja tende a ser frágil e não envelhece bem, portanto exemplares mais novos, frescos e devidamente tratados são mais desejáveis. A maioria dos exemplos parece ter aproximadamente 5% ABV. Ingredientes: Aproximadamente 50% de trigo não maltado (tradicionalmente o trigo de inverno branco e macio) e 50% de malte de cevada claro (normalmente malte Pilsen) constituem a composição de grãos. Em algumas versões pode ser utilizado de 5-10% de aveia crua. Especiarias como coentro moído na hora, laranja Curaçao ou, às vezes, casca de laranja doce complementam o aroma doce e são bem características. Outras especiarias (p. ex., camomila, cominho, canela, cardamomo) podem ser usadas para adicionar complexidade, mas são muito menos proeminentes. Levedura ale que produz suave sabor condimentado é bem característica. Em alguns casos é feita fermentação láctica bem limitada ou adição direta de ácido lático.

Notes: BIAB Procedure
Brew365 says strike temp should be 164. Based on last time, I might adjust downward to 160 to reach mash temp of 152. Edit: I didn't factor in mash thickness. Last time, I had a mash thickness of 1.9 qts/lb! Way too high, no wonder the temp didnt drop as much. This time, I am shooting for 1.5, so the calculator should be accurate.
Parameters:
Batch size 3.2 g
Trub loss 0.3 g
Mash thickness 1.5qts/lb
Grain temp 70 f
Wort shrinkage 4%
Grain absorption 0.1g/lb
Boil off 15%
1. Start with strike water of 8.5L (2.25G) @ 163F.
2. Put in 6 lbs of grains.
3. Rest at 152F for 60 mins.
4. Assuming grain absorption of 0.1G/lb, should end up with 1.65G in brew kettle.
5. Prepare for dunk sparge by adding 10L (2.6G) 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 4.3G of pre-boil wort.
8. Begin boil as usual, adding 1oz of Saaz @ 60 minutes.
9. Add spices @ 5 minutes.
I should end up with about 3.6G of post-boil wort. Accounting for trub loss (0.3G) and wort shrinkage (0.14G), I should end up with 3.2G in bottles.
Recipe
Simple blonde ale recipe, actually given to me by OBK. I am a little worried about CaraFoam taking up 16% of the grist, but I don't have time to go out and buy other grains. It might be a little sweet, with really good head retention. We'll see.
Only one hop addition so the spices are the main focus. Same with the yeast - very neutral and clean yeast.
Apparently a little bit of cardamom goes a long way, so I wont use that much in the boil. Coriander and bitter orange peel are for balance and fruitiness, which I think Mom will like. After primary fermentation, I will add more cardamom and other spices if I feel the aroma isn't quite there.
Pitched yeast @ 23C. Swamp Cooler water read 22C. OG of 1.058. Adjusted for temp thats 1.059. Wow. That's a brewhouse efficiency of 85%. Now it should be 5.5%....I'm not complaining.
Brew date: 07/17.
07/24: Gravity read 1.016 - it has finished fermentation! It is a nice straw yellow colour. Notes of cardamom and citrus on the nose. Also rather grassy. Tastes like a sweeter version of blonde ale. Maybe too sweet...hopefully that dies down. Overall, it tastes like this could be a really good beer for Mom. I won't add anything to the bucket for aroma. This will be my first time cold crashing as well.
07/29: Bottling Day
I accidentally froze the bucket. I'm not sure how this will affect the beer/carbonation levels, but for now, I have just let it thaw at room temp. Given the fact that I cold crashed, some of the C02 that was in the headspace may have been re-absorbed into the beer. To make 2.4 Volumes of C02 with 2.7 G of beer @ 68F, the calculator says to add 2.24 oz of corn sugar. I will round this down to an even 2.0 oz to make sure I dont over-carb, which has been a problem in the past.
Oops, not enough corn sugar left. Will use table sugar instead. I think I will actually have 2.8G of beer, so I will boil 2.1 oz of table sugar to make 2.4 Volumes of Co2.
2.6 gallon to bottle - 0.6 gallons of trub loss!?!
First bottle on 08/07 - 7 days conditioning and 2 days in fridge. Obviously not fully carbed yet. It shows with no head, although some bubbles. Aroma is just about where I want it. The taste is a little sweeter than I wanted - probably because of the extra carafoam. Dry would have been preferred. It is quite refreshing when super cold though, great for a summer beer. Note: This is bottle marked "1", which means that it was one of the first 4 to be bottled. |
