Notes: Brew Day - November 5, 2017
0830 (0000 min) - start with prep, grinding grain, heating tap water shooting for about 166° F.
0930 (0060) Add grain and 14 qts H20 to mash at 155° (approx 1.1 qt/lb)
1030 (0120) Sparge with 178°F water
1140 (0190) Pulled until reached 3°Brix - total of 7.5 gal that combined landed at 12.4° Brix (SG 1.050). Placed on boil.
1215 (0225) - Begin boil. Pitch 2 oz US Saaz
1315 (0285) - Force cool, pitched yeast - landed @ 1.065
1345 (0315) - Cleaned up
November 11, 2017 - Add 2 quarts Very Best Strong Dark Baking (old Grade B/C) Maple Syrup, 3 split vanilla beans, and 1 tsp of ground cinnamon in secondary. First heated all to 200°F and allowed to cool covered all day. Racked beer onto sugars, beer was at 1.023 SG (attenuation of .65%)
December 17, 2017 - Finally finished and racked it to a keg...the secondary ferment took a long time to kick off but when it finally did (approx 4-5 days into the secondary) it bubbled about once every 10 seconds for a month. FG was 1.022 in the end so all sugar fermented but it is still sweet. We'll see how it balances |

Notes: notes from Amber Gold & Black by Martyn Cornell:
mild originally meant any ale drunk fresh; aged ale was called stale
ale was lightly hopped; beer was more heavily hopped
mild could be light or dark, and had a sweet taste from unfermented sugars
needs a bit of sodium chloride or sodium carbonate
around 1830, milds could vary from an O.G. of 1.055 to 1.090
mild malt had a diastatic power between 23 and 30 degrees
pale and amber malts, with invert sugar or cane sugar
mash at higher temperatures, 153–155 °F (67.2–68.3
°C), in order to give a higher level of unfermentables in the wort
I mashed the pale grains, and added the chocolate malt after 45 minutes
color is brown
Saturday, April 7 - racked to secondary
took a gravity reading of 1.014, beer temperature is 62 deg F
Saturday, April 14 - bottled the beer with 5.5 oz. corn sugar
F.G. is 1.014, very little yeast sediment
color brown, tastes delicious, malty, balanced, mild
slow to condition
