Notes: The liquid malt extract - Amber is actually the beer kit from Mangrove Jacks. It is a hopped extract.
The Kit requires either 1.2 kg LME or 1 kg dextrose.
LHBS recommended the Black Rock LME, 1.7 kg.

Notes: Just got a kegging setup with a chest freezer and temperature controller. So, this will be my first lager and first keg. I plan to leave at 51 for 10 days, or until fermentation slows. Then, I will bring it to room temperature for 3-4 days. Finally, I will lager at 35 for 4 weeks.
When I think of lager, I think of extra light, crisp, session beer. So, that is what I am going for here. The recipe was invented estimating 65% efficiency, and I got 78%. I started milling my grain with a different mill, (not the giant one at S2A brewery, but their smaller one), and I also built a heatstick and carefully verified each temperature during sparging and step mash. The step mash will hopefully result in a stupidly high attenuation- I would like a FG in the 1.00x range.
This is also the first batch I have tried toasting my own grains, I toasted 8 oz of 2 row at 300 degrees for 30 minutes for approximately 20L. I put 4oz of that in the mash, along with 8 oz of Crystal 10L.
The second time I make this I am going to try simply using 8 oz of home toasted 20L and no storebought crystal 10L.
First time around, planned Wyeast Pilsen Lager, LHBS sent WLP Pilsner, so I pitched both. Second time, LHBS was out of those, so I am using 1pk Wyeast American Lager and 1pk WLP American Lager. Additionally, the 2nd time I am going to do a 2L starter (with 2pk yeast) to get to the needed ~400billion cells, and I am going to krausen after primary is almost done, by reserving ~2L of wort and pitching a 3rd packet of (Wyeast American Lager) into it after around a week. I may also add 1 lb of instant grits, if I can find any with no added ingredients. This would make the beer more to style.

Notes: A fairly low hopped, smooth stout.

Pure cocoa powder adds some bitterness that is not measured in the stated IBU.

Friends that really don't like normal stout very much enjoyed my previous version of this due to it's low bitterness and smooth texture. The amount of cocoa used only adds very subtle flavours - do not expect it to taste like dairy milk.

Notes: Mash at 150F for 60 min. Add First Wort Hops when entire boil volume approaches 160F. 90 minute boil. 0 Minute hopstand hops get added at flameout and stand for 45 minutes. 0 min Aroma hops get added at 160F during chilling. Pitch and ferment 66F. When fermentation slows, rack to purged keg on top of bagged (and weighted, you want them submerged but not interfering with dip tube) whole hops and let fermentation finish at 64F for 5 days under a little pressure. Drop to 38F or so and force carb. Carb to 2.0vol and enjoy fresh!

Notes: Step by Step

Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash temperature of 152°F. Hold the mash at around 152°F for 90 minutes. Collect first runnings into boil kettle and begin heating. Sparge with 21 qt of 166°F water, collecting wort and adding to kettle until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons. Take hydrometer reading.

The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add 3 lbs of Belgian Candi and the bittering hops with 25 minutes remaining in the boil. Add Irish moss and Maltodextrine with 15 minutes left in the boil. Add wort-chiller to the boil with 10 minutes left. Add aroma hops with 5 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort to 70°F and aerate thoroughly. Pitch one package of Safale-05 into 6.5 gallon fermenting bucket and add airlock.

Ferment at 67°F until the yeast drops clear. At this temperature and with healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in 10-14 days. Rack to a bottling bucket, add 5 oz. of priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2.5 volumes.

In Brew Like A Monk, one of the brewers recommended mashing out and sparging no higher than 163. That way you purposely don't denature the enzymes and conversion continues until the boil starts. If you're mashing at 146, you're going for a highly fermentable, dry beer. "In that situation, 163 makes sense. I did it on my last batch. I achieved my best efficiency to date and fermentation went like gangbusters. This wasn't a huge beer (1.046 SG) and I nearly had a blowout with 5 gallons in a 6.5 gallon Ale Pail (the kreusen crept up the airlock but didn't quite go out the top)."
