Be prepared to clean up a mess after using Burton Ale yeast....goes crazy two to three days after pitching. Temperature steady between 68-70 F for three weeks.
*Double Batch sparge - still working out the kinks in my sparging procedures. |

Gravity of wort should be 1.068. add more honey or corn sugar as necessary. Actual 1.075
Add corn sugar and honey with late hop additions at flame out, Let settle for 15 min. Whirlpool.
Gravity at flame out 1.087. Gravity was 1.11 after honey and dextrose. Added 1 &1/2 gal boiled water to bring gravity down to 1.094.. 2 carboys 5.5gal each. Dry Hop day 3. Keg day 6.
Yum!!! Next time....add some honey malt |

Notes: All-grain recipe, 5-gallon batch size
Original gravity: 1.052
Final gravity: 1.013
Bitterness: 44 IBU
Alcohol by volume: 5.1 percent
Mash the grain (cracked) in 16 quarts of water at 150 degrees F for 60 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon gypsum to water. Sparge until wort reaches a gravity of 1.010 (about 6.5 to 7 gallons). Boil wort, stirring occasionally, until batch reaches a volume of 5.75 gallons. Add 1 ounce of Northern Brewer hop pellets and boil for 60 minutes, adding 1 ounce of Fuggle hops with 10 minutes left in the boil, and another with 1 minute left in the boil. Remove from heat and cool to 70 F.
Fermentation: Aerate well and pitch one activator pack of Wyeast 1084 Irish ale yeast. Let ferment at 70 F for one week. Rack to secondary and let sit at 70 F two more weeks. Prime with 7/8 cup of honey, dissolved in 1 cup of warm water. Bottle. Sample after six weeks.
Judges' notes: Strong malty backbone makes this beer stand out.
Brewer: Phil Clarke Jr.
Competition results: Placed second in a combined category of English pale ales, German wheat and rye ales, and sour ales at the 2006 Knickerbocker Battle of the Brews |

Notes: This is a planned partigyle to Marubozo's RIS recipe. This recipe is unproven as of now, but we'll see how it turns out.
After brewing Marubozo's RIS, take the grains and remash with the 2 kg of Amber malt. I'll update this with the actual gravity I get. Ive calculated it as 1/4 of the grain bill of the RIS.
After 4 weeks fermenting, FG came to 1.018. I've removed the dry hops from the recipe to not compete with the grain. Smells great like a big stout, but alc % is around 3%. We'll see how it goes after conditioning. |

Notes: Equipment Evolution
Blichmann 50l is the mash tun, with the new original false bottom, because the malt bill is too big for the Robobrew. We can also do a step mash with Blichmann 50l.
Robobrew is our boil kettle because his capacity is 30 litres and that is our wort volume going into the kettle AND he fits perfectly under the Blichmann 50l for a gravity transfer.
Mash water just clears the false bottom at 19 litres, so we are adjusting the mash water to 20 + 3 x #kg in mash = 44 litres.
We will adjust sparge water accordingly to get 30 litres for the boil.
Left over last runnings can be used for a low alcohol beer second beer with another yeast (Session IPA??).
I will be surprised if my final gravity is 1.015 since I have very high attenuation in most of my beers and I really want a dry finish to follow the Trappist style exactly. So, I am OK with with the ABV estimate of less than 9% because I will probably hit that in the final product.
Mash schedule following Duvel model from "The Secrets of the Master Brewers", p. 151. |
