Notes: Add 0.25 oz mulling spices to kettle at flame out. (at least 15 mins @180°+)
Make tincture from remaining 0.25 oz of mulling spices.
Add tincture in secondary for 3-5 days. Taste daily and remove to taste. (when cinnamon and nutmeg are present but not overpowering, remove if clove, Star Anise, or Cardamom starts to dominate)
Pre-mixed mulling spices can be used in place of this custom mix as well.
Custom blend: The amounts used are for the total mulling spices needed for the brew, half will go into the boil and the rest will go into the secondary fermentation.
-Cinnamon Stick: 1 small stick (~0.125 oz total, roughly 2-3 inches long, broken into pieces)
-Cloves: 5 whole cloves (~0.0625 oz total)
-Allspice Berries: 8 whole berries (~0.0625 oz total)
-Nutmeg: 5/32 tsp freshly grated (~0.0625 oz total)
-Dried Orange Peel: (~0.1875 oz total) |

Notes: Assuming I didn't have the right amount of grain, was able to pour whole back into water without issue. Thought I double checked weight though.
Used both enzymes, didn't use drill paddle because I thought wheat malt might turn to mush like the flaked wheat did the 1st time I used it, Did stir 2-3 times though and did mash in morning so I was watching each step and took about 2 hrs.
FIX
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/add-dme-to-fermenter.482791/
2 lbs of wheat dme
1.5 lbs sugar =31 gravity pts =1.093
In just enough to dissolve target .25 G as I had that space, can be added during or even toward end of fermentation
A multi-step mash will get you a higher attenuation and clearer wort. It might look something like this:
Dough in and let it rest at between 95 – 113oF for 10 to 15 minutes. This not only helps establish mash pH but ensures the grain is well wetted and helps with enzyme distribution throughout the grain bed.
Resting a couple of degrees above 130oF will allow proteinase enzymes to cut longer chain proteins into medium-chain proteins which can help with clarity without affecting head formation extensively. Rest here for about 15 minutes.
Then jump it up to between 146 and 149oF. This is your main starch conversion rest, letting beta-amylase work. This lower saccharification temperature allows for a more fermentable wort. Let it work for 40 to 50 minutes.
Then jump it up briefly to between 158oF and 160oF. Give the alpha-amylase a small prime working window of 10 to 15 minutes.
If this is a new process to you or this is the first time you are brewing a particular recipe be sure to check conversion with the iodine test before mashing out.
Finally, raise the mash to a mash-out temperature of 168oF and hold for 5 to 10 minutes. If you have the capability you can recirculate the wort during the mashout. |

HOPS
New HBS (Bear Roots) did not have more Amarillo (for bittering), so substituted Chinook. Also did not have Saaz, so substituted Sterling.
Candi Syrup added at 5 minutes before end of boil.
YEAST
2L starter with one packet of WLP570 (Belgian Golden Ale) as the date was a bit older. First 20 hours or so yielded no bubbling, perhaps because ambient temp was only about 56F. So went to White Labs and got a much fresher WLP550 (Belgian Ale) and added to fermenter.
Put into fermentation chamber at lower end of temperature and raised slowly over the next 10 days or so. Cold crashed for about 5 days (longer than anticipated as I had to replace the kegerator).

OG = 1.074

Notes: Maple sap in lieu of water. 2 days @ 60-62 degrees; move to basement 50-54d on 3/20/18 (initially). Leave for 3 months; do not rack.
Maple syrup was entered in fermentables because the fermentable value of the sap was not recognized. 16 oz. syrup = 5 gal. of sap for fermentable sugar |
