Notes: Quick turnaround IPA, keeping the ABV a bit low for this style. Should be able to drink within a week.
Really great beer that was ready to drink 5 days after brewing, too bad I accidentally froze half of the keg...

Notes: Previous day Treat mash and a litte sparge water with 10gms Calcium Chloride, 5gms Calcium Sulphate ( Gypsum ), 4gms Magnesium Sulphate ( Epsom ) and 15gms Baking Soda ( Sodium Bicarbonate ).
Transfer 68L water at 78C to mash tun...sitting on 75.8 at 1640. 75.5C at 1700. 74C at 1830. 73.3C at 1910.
Tue 4/2 Turn on kettle at 0715. Mash tun sitting on 63C.
Start transfer from MT to HLT at 0750. Transfer from kettle at 76C to MT at 0800 MT sitting at 55C after dough in. Start recircualting through HLT at 0820. MT rise too slow as cooling HLT so turn off MT pump at 0825 and let HLT get up to 70C. Restart MT pump at 0830. Up to 67C at 0845.
Initial pH 5.1 add 1 tsp Bicarb. pH at 0930 5.4 - much better.
Recirc mash from 0940 -1015. Mash temp 68.7.
Start transfer to kettle at 1020. Collect 65L.
Light Boil start at 1100 and good rolling boil 1106 at 92%. Drop to 91% as boil reaching 102C...1115 - 101.7C. 1125 101.6C
Add 35gms Pacific Jade to spider at 1030.
Add 90g EKG into spider at 1200.
Add 3gms Koppafloc and 10gms Yeast Nutrient at 1218 for 12 mins boil.
Turn kettle off at 1230 and add 100g dry cone hops - could be Tangerine Dream or Cascade. Approx 57L at end of boil.
Start Counterflow/ Whirlpool at 98C ( at 1240 ) to sterilise lines and coil and run for 30mins. Quick temp drop from 98C to 95.5C. 90-C at 1257. Not whirlpooling too well with cone hops on top??
Start Counterflow cooling at 1315 with temp down to 85C after 35 mins whirlpool.
C/Coil gauge reading 40C with kettle 73.6C at 1320. 38/65C at 1330. 35/58C at 1338. 32/48C at 1352. Turn off cooling and recirc at 1400 at 30/43.5C.
Start transfer to fermenter at 1450. 42.5/21-22C.
Initial gravity 1055 giving 65% efficiency - rather low?? Delicious taste with sweetness and bitterness - but colour and depth more like a Porter - being quite see through with somewhat lighter taste - possibly from using less chocolate malts in grist.
Collect total 54L at 1055 gives 67%.
Pitch recovered Nottingham Yeast ( ex 2501 ) at 1745 at 26.4C.
Go well that Harry.
Wed 5/2 0730 temp 18.9C strong continuous bubbling and lovely yeasty smell.
Thu 6/2 temp 17.9C slightly less but still strong continuous bubbling and lovely yeast smell - gravity 1026. Smell and taste lovely chocolate, coffee with good bitter/ sweet balance with no banana ( as in previous brew ) apparent. 1910 temp 18.3C still continuous bubbling.
Fri 7/2 temp 17.7C bubbling has slowed to one burst every 2 seconds. Gravity 1020. Still tasting very delicious. Lots of suspended yeast etc.
Mon 10/2 temp 18.4C Gravity 1014ish. Still lovely taste but quite murky/ hazy. Runoff 800ml yeast to collection jar.
Tue 11/2 temp 18.9 gravity still around 1014 and seemingly a lot of yeast in suspension giving muddy look to beer. Smells and tastes delicious. Let sample in hydrometer tube settle - still 1014 after an hour of settling.
Wed 12/2 Temp 17.8C. Drop temp setting to 15C at 1700.
Fri 0900 temp 15.5C very tasty but still a little cloudy, drop setting to 10C. =10.5C at 1600 drop setting to 5C
Sun 16/2 temp 5.3C still a little cloudy - dump .5L. Taste still great just needs to clear.
Sun 23/2 - well what a week with Lynne in hospital and then passing away on Thursday 20th. Fuck, fuck, fuck and fuck.
Beer has been sitting at around 5C and the odd taste has seemed fine.
Start transfer to 3 Corny Kegs. Keg5 -18L, Keg4 -18L, keg1 - 12L equals 48L total - start 54L less 2L lees so 4L lost/dumped. I
nitial sampling looking clear with great smell and taste. Rip Snorter. |

2kg of frozen blueberries added for 4 days after 4 days of fermentation gave a beautiful color, but not a sugary taste of blueberries. Extrat of a syrup could be more effective to get a candy blueberrie taste.
Also, the Hallertau Tradition, beside being really interresting, overpowers the bluberries a little bit.
--
All in all, this is an easy sipper without much of an after taste. |
