Notes: Adding 1 lb Maris Otter to the base kit so I can increase the volume by 1 gallon to account for loss in kettle, fermentor. Not changing the hops so a small drop in IBU nor adjusting other grist so the .
Going with a light color and hoppy water profile.
Adding 4 oz Costco Vodka to 2 oz tangerine peel on brew day and adding immediately post-krausen to maybe get some biotransformation. Looks like it will have to be strained?
Using a Escarpment Vermont Ale that I have on hand instead of S05. Wish I had some Voss.

Notes: Mash grains BIAB for 45-60 mins then add DME just before boil.
Mash temp 158f. Higher levels give a less fermentable wort and a more full-bodied beer.
Roast Cocoa nibs at 300f for 10-15 minutes.
Add cocoa nibs, dark bakers chocolate and first addition of coffee at flameout. Steep or whirlpool it for 5-10 mins. You can skip this coffee addition for a more balanced or less coffee flavored beer. Then maybe only do .5oz coarse ground coffee in secondary.
Filter off hops, coffee, cocoa into fermenter.
After ferment rack onto coarse ground coffee for 7 days. Coffee can be soaked overnight in vodka.
Coffee Must be coarse!
I boil about 1/4 gallon every 15 mins in a 4 gallon (16 quart) kettle so it took me an hour to boil off 1 gallon. I adjusted recipe to start with 2 gallons.
Head Retention: It's possible oils from the cocoa or coffee beans can reduce head retention. Choose dry beans. Or soaking them in vodka can help.

Notes: First... I don't understand why the formula gives these specific gravities... my OG lands at 1.067/68 and FG at 1.008/06.
The Rolled Oats consist of toasted Quaker Oatmeal(laid out in toaster oven until heavily toasted).
Grains are put into bag in a 5 gallon water cooler, covered with about 2.5 gallons of water at 149 degrees. After 30 minutes check water... add and stir enough 185 degree water to bring temp up to 148 for about 30 to 40 minutes. Total mash time of appx 1 hour. Sparge with 185-190 degree water to make about 3.5 gallon wort.
For me this wort has a SG of 1.022 at 60 degrees.
Add DME. After hot break start adding hops.
Boil 1 hour...Add brown sugar and honey during last 15 minutes of boil.
To cool, I set my 30 quart aluminum brewpot into an ice bath. I use a large plastic tote with 4, 10 lb bags of ice and water. With regular stirring of the wort, this usually cools it from around 190 down to 80 degrees within 40 minutes.
I keep 2 gallons of water in the freezer for about 20 minutes. I pour my chilled wort into the fermenter and then add the 2 gallons to make about 5.5 gallons.
Re-hydrate 2 packs of Nottingham dry yeast, pitch and ferment at 65 to 70 degrees for 7 to 10 days.
Rack to secondary for 5-7 days.
Bottle and condition for at least 10-15 days.
Bottle condition with 4 oz. of cane sugar for a minimum of 10 to 15 days. A 60 day conditioning is recommended.
Enjoy!
Now... the reason I call this beer a "specialty beer" is because of the feel and after taste. I believe that because of the low mash temperature and "neutral" flavor of the Nottingham yeast, this beer has a hard time fitting into the stout category... it's just too dry, light and crisp tasting to be a stout or porter. I waited until my 2nd brewing and finishing before publishing this recipe. If anyone wants to give it a try and then offer any advice or criticism I'd love to hear it. |
