Notes: Pitched lactobacillus first for two days, then kolsch with cherries and more salt at 1 million cells/mL/P.
Some issues with temperature control and stuck grain from a new system.
OG 1.055
This made a great beer! I made it for a party and everyone seemed to really enjoy it! It was quite low ABV and not a strong sour, so it made for a good day-in-the-sun beer. |

Notes: Cane sugar is included to represent the sugars of 64oz blueberry juice plus 48oz pomegranate juice, converting their natural sugar from grams to pounds.
Yeast used: Lalvin 71B, 25g (5 standard packets)
The fruit is listed under "Steeping Grains" but is actually added directly to the fermenter along with the juice. |

Notes: Hopefully this will be a good New England style hazy double IPA. If not, we just suck at making hoppy things and should probably give up forever and focus on devastatingly strong wheatwines, barrel-aged sours and smoked quads. Not really a bad fate, I guess, but I'd really like to make just one good strong IPA with some amount of bottle-to-bottle consistency. Christ, it's depressing how little luck we've had with pale hoppy style stuff. So here we go again.
Zythos/Mosaic in the boil, Galaxy in the whirlpool, then double dry-hopped with Summer/Nelson. Hoping (against hope) for intense tropical fruit, bright berry and juicy citrus aromas and flavors with a soft mouthfeel brought on by flaked barley and oats. Just as a note we fermented this with Imperial Yeast's A38 Juice strain, not A18 Joystick as listed here, but Juice isn't added yet, so yea.
5/27/17: Got better efficiency than expected by about 7 points... awesome! Ended up being able to collect a half-gallon extra with that BHE; perfect for our newly-purchased 6 gallon fermenter! Everything went off without a hitch, to be honest. We got a bit stuck halfway through our mash re-circulation, but it was corrected quickly and probably had to do with the flaked oats + barley. Looking forward to dry-hopping this one with Summer and Nelson Sauvin!
6/4/17: Pat added an ounce each of Nelson and Summer last Tuesday night, and we took the sample last night. Hit terminal perfectly, and the sample tasted pretty great and really unique. We actually made a bitter and flavorful IPA if the sample was any indication, so that's good. Added another ounce of each of those hops. Probably won't bottle it for a couple weeks, but it isn't getting racked to secondary (we're bottling it most likely on 6/17 with a portion of its own yeast). |

Notes: 1) Add 8 quarts of 165 degree water to start mashing the whole grains (German, 2-row, wheat, and American) in a steeping pot as free grains, not in a bag. Should make ~2.5 gallons of mash, maybe a little less.
2) Steep for 60 minutes (or more). Raise temp to 170 for 10 minutes to finish the mash.
4) Cool to 115. Add a reserved handful of grains, and a couple of raw cherries. (To add bacteria.)
5) Ferment for ~3 days, keeping as close to 100 - 115 degrees as possible.
6) Strain grains out into muslin bag, into the boiler. Sparge with 4 quarts hot water. Add hops, malt extract, honey, boil for 60 mins.
7) Strain out the hops, and pour the wort into the primary fermenter. Ferment 5-7 days.
8) Washed and lean the cherries. Mash them up, and add to the 2ndary fermenter. Rack the beer onto the cherries.
9) Let ferment another 2-3 weeks. Strain any floating fruit bits off the top. Rack into a bottling bucket, and bottle.
10) After conditioning for ~2 weeks, it might be good to store in the fridge for a couple of additional weeks.
