Notes: 10/29/2019
This beer was delicious. It got better with a little bit of age on it, like the 3rd week it was pineapple and citrus goodness.

Acid malt was originally 1 lb but pH went down to 5.13 so adjusted down to .75lbs. 9/4/2018

9/16/2018
Originally included a .5 ounce simcoe charge for bittering at 30 minutes, about 10 IBU plus 1.3oz Simcoe in the whirlpool. Removed because the resulting beers was more resin-bitter than I wanted. I think lowering the IBUs from 80 to 60 and removing that pine-resin flavor will improve the beer significantly

Removed Maris Otter, made all canadian 2-row and flaked oats.

Notes: Mashing Instructions:
Added honey and tangerine juice to 2 gallons of filtered tap water, heated to 145F and held for 20 minutes to pasturize.

Ran off into fermenter, topped up with more filtered tap water to make 4 gallon target volume. Chilled with immersion chiller to yeast pitching temperature, pitched yeast starter, oxygenated for 2 minutes and let it roll.

Special Instructions / Notes:
The must measured 27.7 brix on my refractometer before I pitched the yeast.

Will rack to secondary this weekend and then ignore it in my garage for at least 6 months.

Update Nov. 19, 2014. Bottled from secondary today. Whilst it sat in secondary, the gravity dropped to 1.008. It is pretty clear without any fining, so I won't bother. This is a bit less residual sugar than I had hoped for, but a lesson for next time - USE MORE HONEY! See you at the next mead tasting in 2015 and you can taste it then.

Notes: Based on what Vinnie divulged, this is how I'd go about banging out a 5 gallon batch (don't think you'd want 10 gallons of this, hehe...) basing it on the requirements for an Oud Bruin...

Size: 6.0 gal
Efficiency: 80.0%

Original Gravity: 1.063 (1.040 - 1.074)
Terminal Gravity: 1.013 (1.008 - 1.012)
Color: 21.51 (15.0 - 22.0)
Alcohol: 6.58% (4.0% - 8.0%)
Bitterness: 22.1 (20.0 - 25.0)

Ingredients:
11.0 lb American 2-row
1.0 lb Caramel Malt 40L
1.5 lb Vienna Malt
0.5 lb Carafa Special® TYPE III
1.0 oz Perle (8.2%) - added during boil, boiled 45.0 min

Of course, add your whirlfloc and yeast nutrient. (This isn't an overly thick beer, we'd want to dry this out as much as possible.)

Nice starter of White Labs WLP530 Abbey Ale, or pitch at least two vials, and aerate the crap out of it. Hit it with O2 if you have a tank/diffusion stone.

Give it about 3 weeks in primary, keeping it above 70 degrees for the yeasties to do their thing. Rack when it hits 1.012.

Here's where I get fuzzy. Vinnie says that when this comes off to secondary, he removes the yeast. I'm assuming he's doing that by pasteurization? Either way, I doubt it'd ruin the beer if it's just racked as you normally would.

You'll need a bigger carboy than 5 gallons, to accommodate the cherries, so grab yourself a 6.5 gallon one.

Into secondary, dump a package of Brett, and give it another couple of weeks.

Into secondary, dump 2.0 lb mashed cherries, as well as a package of Belgian Sour Mix 1. For a full effect, soak 1oz of oak chips in some pinot, and add those to the secondary as well. Let that chill for 2-3 months.

Rack to a keg, stash for 6 months before carbing.

Hugely labour intensive beer, and man, if I tapped that keg after a year or so and it tasted like arse, I wouldn't be a happy bunny!

Notes: before mash - toasted 1/4 pound of the oats for 30min @ 350 degrees.

similar to cali blonde and rasp wheat i did:
mash - buckwheat, oats, white rice syrup solid. (afterthought - I should have added the white rice syrup solid after the boil).

added white sorghum syrup upon mash completion.

boil - add hops as desired, stir occasionally.

after boil - added the belgian candi sugar and passion fruit concentrate.

once the wort is cooled to 70 degrees, pitch yeast.

Good Luck!

Notes: Steps

Take yeast out of fridge 3 hours before pitching.

Bring the wort to 140 degrees, add 5g salt and 1g coriander, and then turn the heat off (heat for 5-15 minutes).

Transfer a portion of the wort to a starter flask.
Pitch WLP644 Trois when temp is at 70°.

Leave remaining wort in kettle.
Adjust PH ~4.2 to limit growth Clostridium butyricum and other potential off-flavor bacteria. Add 2 ml of lactic acid.
Chill the wort down to 95°.
Add 5 oz of Goodbelly Mango drink.
Cover with blankets.
Allow it to sour for 24 hours. No external heating is required.
Target PH: 3.6 - 3.8

After the souring phase, heat to kill the Lactobacillus before adding the WLP644 Trois for 5-15 minutes at 140 degrees.
Chill the Lactobacillus wort down to ~70°F and pitch WLP644 Trois.

After 2 weeks a stable gravity should be reached.
Rack or transfer off as normal to bottles or a keg.

Goodbelly: 8oz per 5 gallons = 1.6oz per gallon X 3 gallons = 4.8 oz (5 oz)
Salt: 0.5oz per gallon - 0.0625 per gallon X 3 gallons = 0.1875oz (5.315g)
Corriander: 1oz per gallon = 0.125 per gallon X 3 gallons = 0.375 (10g) - cut by 50% to 5g
Lactic acid: Using 1 mL of 88% lactic acid per .1 shift in pH for 5 gallons of wort is a good starting measurement. As an example, say that 5 gallons of wort has a pH of 5.0 just before pitching the Lactobacillus culture. Begin by adding 5 mL (1 US teaspoon) of food grade lactic acid to the wort for a target of ~4.4 pH.

Process/notes:
Mash at 152 F for 60 minutes. I batch sparge. As you begin to drain your second runnings, add FWH. I add Gypsum, dissolved in warm water, at the beginning of the boil for a little more control than you might get from a mash addition. Note that I use U.S. Goldings (produced by Indie), which I get from my LHBS. I like these better than EKG. If you can get your hands on some, I highly recommend them. If not, no biggie. The Crystal 15 is domestic, but definitely source a British malt for the darker crystal. The Belgian biscuit was a tweak I made when I re-brewed for the final round. I think it gives it more character than Victory malt. I love Wyeast 1469, and use it for most of my bitters, porters and stouts. For this low OG, you do not need to make a starter. As with most of my beers, I ferment at around 67 for 3 weeks.
