Notes
4/1/2011
Kegged last week, tasted great already, the hops were present and pairing well with the blueberry but slightly subdued so I added another 3oz mosaic dry hop to the keg to even it out at 1lb total mosaic. Having a full pint tonight, its money.

opened today for gravity reading and to add dry hop. 1.018. smells great. tastes great. not as darkly colored as previous blueberry beer but its like a hazy pink on its way to purple. tastes great, a little harsh bitter note, could be the mosaic? there is no bittering hops in this brew.
should be good! should be ready soon! will leave it to dry hop for 3 days then take out the bag, take another gravity reading to make sure the fruit has fermented out / no further activity. after that will need to cold crash for a day or two then keg. possibly add another 2nd dry hop to the keg. i have a few oz left of the bag.

initial recipe formulation
copying base recipe from mango maya. keeping basically the entire grain bill, adjusting efficiency to 60, removing DME and adjusting base malt to get to 8%. im hoping to cook the oats and get better efficiency than in the past. if we end up with 6% it should still be tasty.
axing the 1lb honey malt - i dont think it plays as well with blueberry as it does with mango. also its heavy on lovibond making th ebase beer more orange colored which goes ok with mango but for blueberry im hoping more toward yellow hazy ipa base beer as a bright backdrop for the purple blueberries.
making up a new hop schedule, 100% mosaic. not sure how much to use. starting with 13oz - about the same as mango maya. will probably buy a bag so if it needs 3oz more in a 2nd dry hop, that will be available.
decided on only 3lb blueberry - last time i used blueberry i did 6lbs and it was way too much. i think it will not be lacking in blueberry color and flavor, especially accented by the mosaic.
could maybe do without the vanilla bean? and lactose? prob not.
