Notes: 1. Steep grain in 1.5 gallons of water by heating slowly to 155, then shut off the heat steep for 30 minutes.
2. Remove grain from wort.
3. Add the fermentables along with 1/2 the Fuggles & 1/2 the golden hops and continue boil for another 30 minutes.
4. Add Irish Moss continue Rolling boil for 15minutes.
5. Add 1/2 the Fuggles & 1/2 the golden hops and continue boil for another 15 minutes.
6. Add Irish Moss and continue boil for another 15 minutes.
7. Cool the wort down as quickly as possible (I placed the pan (with lid on) in the sink, filled around the pan with ice and cold tap water. Being careful not to allow the ice or water to touch the lid, don't want to contaminate it now).
8. Pitch the yeast in 1/2 cup water & a couple tablespoons of corn sugar just to make sure its going to work. (I used Karo Syrup, didn't' t have dry corn sugar handy)
9. Pour wort into fermenter, use a strainer if you have one to catch the hops.
10. Fill with water (total wort plus water = 5 gallons)
11. Now is the time to get a sample to measure.
12. Pitch the yeast into the fermentor and stir vigorously for a minute or so to infuse with oxygen.
*Step 4 was a mistake. Shouldn't have done it. |

FG 1.02 around, so exactly as predicted by BF.
4.11.2018
Successful beer day the only issue was a crack in the Erlenmeyer flask :(
Spices:
Cinnamon 3.9g (1.5 tsp)
Allspice 1g (0.5 tsp)
Ginger 0.9g (0.5 tsp)
Nutmeg 0.55g (0.25 tsp)
Clove 0.5g (0.25 tsp)
Bottling time:
Cinnamon 0.75 tsp
Allspice 0.25 tsp
Ginger 0.25 tsp
Nutmeg 0.25 tsp
163 Strike Water
157 when pumpkin added
151.2 when grain was added (at 60)
155 (heated) at 54
154.4 at 25 mins (with cool down maybe this was too high)
150.8 at 16
153.3 at 11 (heated)
Measured Water Ph = 7.8
Ph Sparge water = 5.2
Ph mash water = 5.1!!!
I measured out of interest and from 4L of sparge water I actually extracted 5L of fermentable wort. This is quite good.
5.11.18 (one day later) 35 bips per minute. 20 degrees
6.11.18 Significant slow down. Almost no airlock activity. 18 degrees
7.11.18 I shook it in the morning to get some activity restarted.
11.11.18 Racked to secondary with Christian. An incredible amount of trub at the bottom! Really astounding. Taste is a subtle spice and pumpkin on the aftertaste; nothing too strong.

Notes: Dark DME is actually Briess Traditional Dark (54% munich 10L, 30% base malt, 13% caramel 60L, 3% black malt).
This won't work with other dark DME.
Pitch at lager temperature, move to room temperature after 6-10 days.
Rack to secondary after 3 weeks in primary.
Do not lager. |
