Notes

========================

i have 10 gall of pumpkin milkshake planned, for half of it i will add some DME and roasted grains to steep to make an imperial milk stout with pumpkin pumpkin spice vanilla bean and then, put it in the barrel with some rum.

since it will need more hops i will prob brew this cmpletely separate...? although all the grains are mixed up. maybe one mash and two boils...? not sure yet

========================

bumping up the grain bill to get to 7%. changing to safale with higher expected efficiency. acid malt to proper mash ph. possibly will brew 10 gallons

========================

measured FG of 1028. adjusting recipe attenuation from 71% to 65 so the recipe FG matches actual. came out to 4.8% abv but still tastes just as good, doesnt taste light in flavor or body at all.

still not sure why efficiency is so low on this beer (it was last year too). if you disregard the oats and pumpkin from the calculation it the efficiency is still low, under 60%. I would like to brew this to 8% some year but not sure what it would take for this beer (i.e. just a lot more base malt? how much? or go the DME route?)

This was the last beer I brewed on my old cooler mash tun and digiboil system. I've started using grainfather which so far has better and more consistent efficiency so it would be interesting to brew this same recipe on GF to see how much better it does.
========================

updating for 2021. not sure what happened in terms of efficiency last year but this year i will be intentionally brewing it to 5% range for wifey. As alluded to below, I suspect the eff issue is oats and pumpkin not really contributing as much as this calculator thinks. I think I will just rebrew this thing exactly with no adjustments this year, see if i get the bad eff again.

brewed this on 10/20/2020. need to update recipe from notebook but i believe it only came out at 1065. i think the flaked oats, wheat, and pumpkin dont contribute as many points as this calculator says it does....we will see.
========================

reviewing notes and recipe from last year, going to combine kind of what i was trying to do and what i actually did. removing 1lb 2row and adding that to the maris otter. going to keep the 1lb honey malt, 1 lb lactose, 1lb wheat malt, 1 lb flaked oats, 1lb flaked wheat, 1lb 40L

========================
9/30/2019 brew day
there was snafu with ingredients. i had the homebrew shop pick my order last week. one bag was supposed to have 2lb oat malt and 2lb wheat malt. as far as i can tell it was just 4lb of flaked oats. so i just used 2lb of that flaked oat, then i had a bag of 1lb wheat malt and 40L (wouldve preferred not to use the 40L but it was mixed) so i added that and another lb of 2row.

Also for simplicity i scratched the existing spice bill and just did 2.5 tsp pumpkin pie spice. (using charlie papazian pumpkin recipe as reference for the approximate spice amount)

changing from pilsner to maris otter
========================
9/16/2019
Based on the award winning mango maya recipe. Considering coconut!? Bumped it down from 8 to 4oz. taking the hop schedule and pumpkin and spice amounts from 2017's pumpkin single 2. (pumpkin single 1 used brown sugar which is counterproductive in this milkshake beer) changed 2row back to pilsner. color estimator looks pretty orange but considering adding some crystal malt? biscuit malt has highest lovibond from original recipe....
