Notes: Using a 9L keg: Heat keg up with a boiling starsan water mix and drain. Add 1kg of either Dry spray malt extract or 1.1L of heated liquid malt extract (hot as you can get it). Add 1L of hot fresh boiling water to DSME or 2L of hot fresh boiling water to Liquid malt. Add hops, sugar and water treatment, yeast nutrient. Shake to mix. Let stand at near boiling temp for 5 mins. Longer if you want more bitterness. Top up water to 8L. Oxygenate. Allow to cool to fermenting temp. Add yeast. Seal keg. Shake, add spunding valve. Ferment as required.
You could add the hops to the boiling water prior to adding.
Ive used bottled water in this recipe.
Keg will need floating dip tube to OUT post.
ACTUAL METHOD USED.
Due to the dip tube rattling inside the keg I mixed and boiled the bottled water and malt extract in a sauce pan. First hops in the boil for 8 mins. Second hop in the keg prior to sealing at 15c. You could dry hop day 2 or 3 for biotransformation, whatever that is!!. Im nit very hopping so will go to 20psi.
Ferment, cold crash and serve from the keg as above.
7L of Carrick Glen Mineral water used.
Brewed on 20/09/22: Cooled overnight before adding final hops and yeast. Day 15 appeared to have finished fermenting. Crash cooled on 07/10/22 Day 17.
By 13/10/22 it had cleared on its own without any finings or getting, Day 23.
Excellent head, slight yellow colour. Distinctive strong Lime Aroma with Lime and sherbet type aroma. A bit sweet, slight toffee and sherbet flavour. A very nice beer for such minimum effort. Certainly will repeat.
Ive since done a shake and Brew IPA in 19L keg. Turned out 6.43% and had a very strong flavour with a slight, alcohol flavour. |

Notes: Summary: Light, dry hopped vienna lager.
Batch-size adjusted to my fermenter. Estimated boil size assumes 6 L evaporation pr hour.
Style:
- Color: The color is a bit lighter than the style traditionally is.
- Perceived malt aroma & flavor: The style is traditionally characterized by malty aroma and light malt sweetness with a light toasted malt character. The toasted character is not expected in this brew as the malt has not been treated at sufficiently high temperatures. The taste should be a bit sweeter than normal.
- Perceived hop aroma & flavor: Usually, it will be very low to low, but I expect it will be high due to the dry hopping.
- Perceived bitterness: Low. pH is at the low end to accentuate the clean and crispy character.
- Fermentation: Low DMS, diacetyl and fruity esters is aimed for.
Mash:
- The diastatic power should be sufficient to allow self-conversion.
- No protein or beta-glucan rest is needed.
Fermentation:
- 10-12.8 degrees is recommended for WLP940. It will start at 10 degrees and increased to 11. A diacetylrest will be applied. This should ensure low to DMS, diacetyl and fruity esters.
- Due to the use of dry hopping and because it is a lager, the beer will be cold crashed and lagered for two weeks.
Hops:
- Use of dry dopping. Limited to 15 grams for 2 days. To avoid moving too far away from the typical style character of being to the malty side, the dry hopping should not overshadow the maltiness; not too much at least.
Other ingredients:
- Whirlfloc will make proteins coagulate during cooling, thereby avoiding haze and increasing how long the beer will be able to last. Add 5 minutes before end of boil.
Water choices:
- The starting point is the style 'medium lager (amber)' from the book Water.
- The sulfate/chloride ratio is low to emphasize the maltiness.
- Residual alkalinity is lower than usual for the style - the color of the beer is lighter and so the pH would not become low enough if residual alkalinity is not lower than usual. pH in mash is aimed to reach 5.30. |

"Homebrewing is a convenient solution to the challenges of keeping beer consumption safe during breastfeeding. Kegging critically offers the option to drink less than a full glass without dying a little on the inside. The alcohol percentage is also entirely within the control of the homebrewer, and furthermore, certain ingredients might actually increase supply and make nursing easier.
Of the ingredients cited as potentially beneficial, some advocated dark or roasted grains, while there was definite support for oatmeal and especially hops. This lead to an obvious style choice: Oatmeal Stout. The only other considerations were keeping the alcohol percentage low and slightly boosting the hop profile.
This beer turned out quite well; smooth and very roasty with some notes of dark fruit, almost like a very dark brown as opposed to a stout. The hop character was present, and a more assertive profile would not have been offensive." |
