Notes

Used 6g calcium chloride, 3g gypsum, 1g salt and 1g epsom salt in the mash. Temps were a bit all over the place in the new mash kettle, and pH was about 4.85. Need to use less brewing salts in the mash next time with the goal of higher efficiency. Can use more salts in the mash.

Whirlpool/hop stand for 20 mins.

Fermentation temp reached 78 after about 28 hours.

Dry hop #1 at about 48 hours.

Citra - grapefruit, melon, lime, gooseberry, passion fruit and lychee.

El Dorado - tropical fruit flavors, and aromas of pear, watermelon and stone fruit.

Mosaic - blueberry, tangerine, papaya, rose, blossoms, grass and bubble gum.



OG should be 1.066, FG 1.015, ABV 6.7%

WATER

Use calcium chloride and calcium sulfate additions to adjust water profile to about 125–150 ppm calcium, 175–200 ppm chloride, and 75–100 ppm sulfate.

DIRECTIONS

Mash at 149°F (65°C) for 60 minutes or until conversion is complete. Add half of the water salt additions to the mash and the rest at sparge. Add the FWH hops during runoff, immediately after vorlauf, and allow them to steep in the hot wort as the mash is sparged.

Boil for 60 minutes. Whirlpool for 40 minutes (from start to rest) following the hops schedule.

Pitch the yeast and ferment at 67°F (19°C) for 2–3 days, then allow the temperature to rise slowly to 73°F (23°C) by the end of fermentation to ensure full attenuation. When fermentation reaches 1.5–2° Plato from terminal gravity (1.020–1.022), add the first dry-hop addition. About 4 days later, add the second dry-hop addition for another 4 days. Package at 2.6 volumes of CO2 and consume fresh.
