WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

This is an experimental braggot to explore both bochet and oats. Initial tastings have proven my first batch won't be my last. Likely next batch will increase oats, decrease honey into the 50% range, and reduce the overall ABV to 11-12%.

Honey caramelization is light here - you can take it to higher temps/stages if desired.

Caramelized honey in (2) 8# batches (Tbsp water and lemon juice). Heated to soft ball stage for 10 min. stirring and adjusting heat constantly for boil over protection. Transferred each to gallon carboy and topped off before chilling.

Combine all ingredients in fermenter, spices and (6) Campden tabs. Top off to 6 gallons.

Nutrient, bicarbonate & bentonite after 24 hours. Aerate 20 min before pitching yeast. With nutrient additions, this will ferment to FG in less than 2 weeks.

Sorbate in secondary, 24 hours before adding glycerin. Will clarify in 1-2 weeks to a clear red color.

Age 3+ months with Zoakers (1/gallon).

Brew Date: 9-17-2023
Bottled 4 gallons on 9-29-2024 (20 bottles @ 750ml)
