Notes: Did a 90 min mash at 154.
Pitched yeast at 90 degrees. Had made 2-750 ml starters. The OYL 057 was out of date, thus the starters. O.Gg.-1.056
-Fermentation seemed to go well. Xferred to secondary after 6 days. G-1.028 (hmmm, high). Sat in secondary for over 2 weeks while on vacation. Kegged 5 gals 24 days later. G-1.018 (still high, disappointing). Overall impression. Nice color, clean ferment. Good bitterness balance. Not much hop flavor or aroma. Maybe dry hop?

Notes: Brew notes 28 Feb 21:
Strike water heated to 153 deg F with 1g each epsom and table salts, gypsum, and calcium chloride.
Stirred after 20 mins and pulled pH reading which was in the 5.8 range. Need more salts or acid malt next time.
Previous brew notes:
150deg strike water gave 144deg initial mash with 7# pils and 2# rye. Used faucet and not RO, pH after 20 mins was 5.84 and temp was around 140, added 2g gypsum (initially used 3g) and took another pH reading which was 5.93. Raised temp to 152. After 40 mins in the high 140s/ low 150s (60 mins total) raised temp to 165.
10 min hop stand at 130degF.
Pre-boil gravity indicated efficiency at 84%. Once the honey was added, OG was around 1.055.
Chilled in the fermentation chamber for approx 2 hours before pitching decanted 3L starter.
Amarillo: Specific aroma descriptors include grapefruit, orange, lemon, melon, apricot and peach
Simcoe: Specific aroma descriptors include passion fruit, pine, berry and earth characteristics
Would like to try using 10 gals of water between mash/sparge and leave a rolling boil for 60 mins to see if we can get from 8.5 pre boil to 6.5 post boil. I think more sparge water would help with efficiency.
Hop ideas:
Southern Cross: citrus, lime, pine, spice, lemon zest
Summer: citrus, apricot, melon
Pioneer: lemon, citrus
Medusa
Enigma: raspberries
Fantasia: cream, caramel
Aroma (v3): subtle honey, minimal hoppyness. Surprising considering the amount of hop, especially the dry hop.
Taste (v3): slightly more than subtle honey and rye, which is less desirable than major honey and rye in v2. The 5oz of cascade don't come through at all except for in extremely clean bitterness and extreme grapefruit flavor on the back end. Grapefruit was not the goal of this beer but that is the overwhelming flavor note. Cascade would obviously make for a terrific grapefruit IPA and this beer is quite enjoyable but I am curious to see if there could be a better hop pairing for the honey and rye, especially in a lager.
Aroma (v4): Amarillo dominates with orange up front; citrus, grapefruit, and subtle pear. Malt not perceptible behind the substantial hops.
Taste (v4): A bit more body that you'd expect given how light the color is, the hops create a rounded mouthfeel initially that gives way to a clean and dry lager finish. It would be more dry with noble instead of fruity hops and less alcohol, which is not necessarily an issue. This is a well-rounded beer with major flavor and aroma that stays crisp enough that you actually want to drink a few (looking at NEIPA with skeptical, afraid eyes). |

Notes: The base recipe was taken from Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I upped the OG (I think this works better as a sipping beer) and lowered bitterness to account for addition of spice from Habenero peppers. The benefit to using the prescribed method is that you get very little of the bitter vegetable pepper flavor transferred to the tincture, just the capsaicin. Leaving the seeds in the tincture for an extended period of time will cause some of these flavors to transfer.
I follow the mash profile in the recipe, and do a warm water pour over sparge through a strainer with 1 gallon of the adjusted water, with the grain sitting in a large strainer above my boil kettle. After I chill my wort to about 80F, I transfer to my fermenter and aerate with a spoon for 3 minutes. I then add chilled distilled water to get the OG where I want it, usually about 1.5 gal, but this depends on your boil off rate. Pitch yeast and let it ride! I recommend using a blow-off tube for the first 2 days if you don't have the recommended 25% head space in your fermenter. Using US-05 with this gravity can get pretty violent.
To add the spice, I de-seed about 30 Habeneros and soak the seeds for 1 week in about 2 cups of Tito's vodka. After fermentation is complete and you're ready to package, measure out 1 cup of beer in a glass and slowly add the spiced vodka tincture in measured amounts, tasting the beer each time until you like the level of spice (I have an old graduated medicine syringe that I use to measure the tincture with). Then scale up that amount to your finished volume of beer! Each time I brew this I end up adding a different amount of tincture to achieve the same level of spice |
