Brew365 Calculation below:
Batch Size: 2.75 g
Grain Bill: 20 lbs
Boil Time: 3 hours
Trub Loss: 0.25 g
Equipment Loss: 0.25 g
Mash Thickness: 1.50 qts/lb
Target Mash Temp: 156
Percent Boiloff: 11.5 %
Total Mash Water: 7.50 g
Sparge Water: 0 g
Pre-Boil Volume: 4.75 g
Combined into Pre-Boil total Volume: 9.5 g
4 days prior to brew I started two 1.5 L starters from 2 packs of WLP090 yeast. Let ferment and stored in fridge until brew day. On the morning of brew I decanted starters and pitched into new 1 L starter so it would be active before pitching.
Had to substitute Golden Promise for Marris Otter. Grain bill was split into two even grain bills. Milled 2 days before brew and stored at homebrew store at 72 degrees,
9/14/19: brewed with Matt and John at homebrew store.
Roughly 11:30 AM start time. Started with 7.5 gallons of RO water, treated with 4.9g of baking soda, and 7g of calcium chloride. Pre-heated mash tun with 178 degree mash water. Doughed in with 20 lbs of grain, achieved 155 degree mash temp, let rest 90 minutes and stirred every 15 minutes for first hour.
Repeated with second mash, achieved 160 degree mash temp, cooled with 2-3 qts of extra water to 156 degrees, then let rest for 90 minutes.
Vorlaufed both for 10-15 minutes each. Collected first runnings only into 15G kettle, boil volume 10G, pre-boil gravity between 1.082 - 1.084. Boiled for just over 3 hours on propane burner. Forgot to add yeast nutrient during boil. Cooled with copper immersion chiller to 90 deg.
Final volume was 5 - 5.15G into 6G glass carboy. Original gravity of 1.145-1.147 (reading was off the refractometer scale).
Placed fermentor into ferm chamber set to 66 deg. Temp stabilized ~1.5 hours later. Pitched 1 L new and very active starter, vigorously shook for 2-3 minutes to aerate.
@12 hours post pitch - very active ferm, 1-2" krausen
@24 hours post pitch - nearly high krausen 2-3"
@36 hours post pitch - high krausen, very active, almost into blow off tube
Partigyle Brew:
Decided on an english mild/brown ale
Target OG: 1.050
Actual OG: 1.045
Target IBU: 30
Target Volume: 5.5G
Boil: 60 minutes
Ran 3.5G untreated Louisville tap water through each mash tun. Let rest for 30 minutes while we handled the main brew. Vorlaufed briefly, then collected 6.5G second runnings into 10G boil kettle. "Boiled" on induction burner that maintained a weak simmer.
Added 1oz EKG/Fuggles at 50 for ~25 ibus
Added 1oz EKG/Fuggles at 5 minutes for ~5 ibus
Cooled with copper immersion chiller to 90 degrees. Then placed in ferm chamber set to 66 degrees alongside RIS. Temp stabilized ~1.5 hours later. Pitched 1 pack of S-04 then lightly shook for 30 seconds to aerate.
@12 hours minimal ferm
@24 hours thin krausen
@36 hours active ferm, 1" krausen
10/10: Bottled half of the brown plain with dextrose. Targeting 2.3 vol co2. Remaining 2.75G was racked into 3G better bottle with 2 split, scraped, and chopped wet Madgascar Vanilla beans (that had been soaking in ~1-2 oz of Heaven Hill vodka for 2-3 days).
10/23: Dry beaned 30g (~11g/G) of Sunergos Tanzanian Peaberry coffee (roast date: 10/10). Beans were placed into sanitized grain bag, filled with coffee/stainless steel nuts, and suspended in beer for ~24 hours.
10/24: Packaged vanilla/coffee portion, targeting 2.1 vol co2, primed with dextrose. Flavor and aroma was pretty incredible, vanilla added body/sweetness and the fresh roast smell of coffee was very pleasant.
Notes for Next time:
-don't forget to add yeast nutrient
-we collected more pre-boil volume and still had wort left in the mash tun, consider lowering initial mash volume by 0.25G each
-partyigyle beer was much weaker than it could have been. Sparge with less volume, and collect any remaining wort from tuns before sparging

Notes: original notes from strawberry milkshake research :
did not finish my recipe before getting to the brewstore so its a little improvised but i think it will work.
one worry is that the original recipe was only 1073 OG. when i beefed up the malt bill i did not add any additional bittering hops so it will be pretty low IBU and Bu/GU but we'll see...
strawberry is strawberry puree. or maybe frozen and thawed fruit. add the fruit after high krausen. add dry hops after that, approx 4 days before keggings.
based off
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/437443/milkshake-style-ipa-clone
some people say add green apples to boil to get the pectin which makes the body and haze - no apple flavor in the end. guy said he added 5 apples. for this version i will omit though. https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/milkshake-ipa-help.497852/
some say to add wheat flour too but im not so worried about the appearance, it should be hazy enough with the oats wheat and manchester yeast...
heres another recipe reference supposedly closer to the tired hands version :
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/392896/ipa-tired-hands-milkshake
thinking about breaking off a couple gallons before the strawberry addition and adding toasted coconut :
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/coconut-ipa.445732/
1.5 lb coconut toast at 190 for 15 min constantly turning. Some add to mash or boil or keg but I think I'll just secondary
update 01242018 : some homebrew stores have kits now, check out the grain bill for those (more or less the same, they dont use any puree necessarily : http://www.greatfermentations.com/downloads/instructions/beerkits/ShakeitGoodMIPAAG.pdf
END STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE NOTES
START MANGO COCONUT MILKSHAKE NOTES :
Update for mango maya: bumping warrior from .5 to .75 - RR was not bitter at all but all sweet and smooth. When dry hop wears pff its missing some bitter balance. Should prolly do 1 whole oz. But non ipa guests might like it more if less bitter.
unclear on how much coconut. this guy used 0.5 lb for 1-3 days in dry hop (but he also used another 1lb during boil and another 0.5 lb in keg). seems like not a lot but he insists not to overdo it. he says it imparts flavor fast.
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/coconut-ipa.586566/
some other recipes im seeing are using a pound or more total. a lot of people have been adding some to boil, which as of this writing it is too late to consider. cant decide if i want to add 1/2 or a whole pound...
Went with 8oz flaked unsweetend coconut for 3 days and it is really coconutty! But not too much. |

Notes: Brew
- Mash w/ 4 gal, strike at 166, w/ 1tsp Epsom Salt & 1tsp Calcium Chloride
- collect 2.5 gal
- batch sparge w/ 2gal at 201F to bring mash to 170F
- collect 2 gal for 4.5 gal total
- boil 60 mins to 3.5 gal
- add orange peel 15 min before flame out
- add crushed coriander 5 min before flame out
- add 1.5 gal for 5 gal total
Notes:
- efficiency way lower than expected at 50% (most likely due to oats and wheat absorbing too much)
- only collected 2 gal on first running and 1.75 gal on batch sparge, so added .75 gal up to 4.5 gal before boil
- down to 4 gal before starting boil, yielding 3.25 gallons
- added to 1.5 gallons in primary for 4.75 gallons total |

Notes: Clone of McEwan's Scottish Ale - ABV target ~ 8% ABV
Make yeast starter at least 12 hours prior to brewing.
Brewing OG = 1.090
Ferment 7 days at 72º
Rack to secondary and add 1 oz. East Kent Goldings SG = 1.028
Ferment 35 more days at 72º
Bottle SG = 1.022 ABV = 8.8%
Make INVERT SUGAR 12 hours prior to brewing - recipe:
½ lb. pure cane sugar ("Turbinado" Sugar is best)
1/8 tsp citric acid
3/4 cup water
Dissolve sugar, add citric acid, and simmer at low heat for 20 minutes to 2 hours.
Steep/Mash grains for 30 min @ 156º Sparge @ 170º.
Add 6 lbs amber DME at boil.
Add 1 oz Kent Goldings at boil.
Add 3.3 lbs dark LME @ 30 minutes.
Add 8 oz. Invert sugar at 15 min.
Add Irish Moss at 15 min.
Add 1 oz. Styrian Goldings at 5 min.
Appearance: A blackish brown body with a slight reddish hue when viewed in front of a light and a pleasant dense tan head
Aroma: Caramelly malt with hints of cherry and spice playing softly in the background.
Taste: Big, sweet malt flavors immediately fill the mouth with dark fruit and vanilla behind it, and a slight tang coming through on the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, thick and almost oily (but not in a bad way!) with small tingling bubbles. You can feel a bit of heat from the alcohol.
Drinkability: This is a sipper for sure.
