Notes: Here is a 5-gallon all-grain clone recipe for Peroni Nastro Azzurro.

Recipe Stats

* Batch Size: 5 Gallons (19 Liters)
* Original Gravity (OG): 1.050 – 1.052
* Final Gravity (FG): 1.010 – 1.012
* ABV: ~5.1%
* IBU: 24 (Moderate bitterness)
* SRM: 3-4 (Pale Straw)
* Mash Efficiency: 75%

Ingredients

The Grain Bill

* 8.5 lbs (3.9 kg) Premium Pilsner Malt
* Note: If you can find Italian Pilsner malt (like Eraclea), use it. Otherwise, a high-quality German Pilsner malt (Weyermann) works perfectly.
* 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg) Flaked Maize (Corn)
* Crucial: This provides the distinct "Nastro Azzurro" crispness and lightness. Do not skip this.
* 0.5 lbs (225 g) Carapils (Dextrin Malt)
* Optional: Strictly for head retention; keeps the foam standing like a proper draft pour.

The Hops

Peroni uses a combination of bittering and noble aroma hops.
* 60 Minutes: 0.5 oz (14 g) Magnum [~12% AA]
* Target: ~18-20 IBUs. A clean bittering hop.
* 15 Minutes: 1.0 oz (28 g) Saaz [~3.5% AA]
* Target: ~5 IBUs. Provides that spicy, earthy noble hop flavor.
* Flameout (0 Minutes): 0.5 oz (14 g) Saaz or Tettnang
* Target: Aroma only.

The Yeast

You need a clean, neutral lager yeast that ferments dry.
* Dry Option (Recommended): Fermentis Saflager W-34/70 (2 packets rehydrated).
* Liquid Option: White Labs WLP800 (Pilsner Lager) or Wyeast 2007 (Pilsen Lager).
Water Profile
* Soft water is best. If you use RO water, add a small amount of Calcium Chloride to hit ~50ppm Calcium, but keep sulfates low to avoid harsh bitterness.
Brewing Schedule

1. The Mash (Single Infusion):
* Mash in at 148°F (64°C) for 60-75 minutes.
* Why: The lower temperature activates beta-amylase enzymes, creating highly fermentable sugars. This ensures the beer finishes dry and crisp, not heavy or sweet.

2. The Boil:
* Boil for 90 minutes.
* Why: Pilsner malts contain DMS precursors (cooked corn flavor). A 90-minute boil drives these off.
* Add hops according to the schedule above.
* Add Irish Moss or Whirlfloc tablet at 15 minutes left in the boil for clarity.

3. Fermentation:
* Chill wort rapidly to 50°F (10°C).
* Pitch yeast and ferment at 50°F - 52°F (10°C - 11°C) until gravity drops to roughly 1.016 (about 2/3 done).
* Diacetyl Rest: Raise temperature to 62°F (16°C) for 2-3 days to let the yeast clean up butterscotch flavors.

4. Lagering (The "Cold Storage"):
* Once fermentation is complete and stable, crash cool to 34°F - 38°F (1°C - 3°C).
* Store cold (Lager) for a minimum of 4 weeks. This is vital for the smooth, clean finish typical of Peroni.
5. Packaging:
* Carbonate to 2.5 - 2.7 volumes of CO2.

Notes: Klassisk engelsk winter warmer med rikelig maltsødme og en rund, lett krydret humleprofil. Syv sorter malt gir ølet dybde og toner av karamell, ristede nøtter og nystekt brød. Ølet kan med stort hell serveres til julemiddagen.

Whirlpool: skru av varmen, vent 5 minutter, tilsett humleposen, rør rundt, vent 10 minutter, start nedkjøling.

Lagringstid: Kaldt i minimum tre måneder.

Enkel feilsøking
Det plopper ikke i gjærlåsen: Frykt ikke. CO2 kan lekke ut andre steder. Ta heller en SG-måling og se om tallet er lavere enn OG-målingen.

Jeg traff ikke OG: Våre ølsett er beregnet ut i fra 75% effektivitet. Sørg for god sirkulasjon under mesking, ved røring eller pumpe.

Jeg traff ikke FG: Vanligvis skyldes dette at mesketemperaturen var for høy eller at du brukte for lite gjær. Noter det til neste gang. Husk oksygenering og gjærnæring.

Notes: modified from last years version. adding ginger and possibly nutmeg back into the mix, reducing cinnamon and clove? not sure by how much. refer to trustmonkey/pki for decent balanced spice amounts. increasing the bitter orange peel contribution and adding sweet orange peel. may add .5 lb more dme.

2014 notes :
boiled 1.5 lb extract for total 60 minutes, added the rest (6lb) after 45 minutes (total 15 minutes)

cut and scrape vanilla bean and soak in small amount of bourbon for 24 hours and add it to the secondary. the other spices can go in for 5-15 minutes at the end of the boil.

Notes: During a trip to Britain 1990, we stayed a couple of nights in Masham, on the White Bear Pub.
It was next to the brewery Theakston.
Of course, we fell in love with the old peculiar!

This is a long time ago and I have foud i since...

This is my nostalgic attemt to clone the old peculiar.
