Notes
IMPORTANT: Add honey at end of boil, flame out.
The whirlpool herbs (hop list) is a steep of no less than 10 mins or more added end of Boil.
I use a nylon mesh straining bag that I can add herbs to through out the process.
Ancient Notes:
This is a conversion of my Wee Heavy / Scotch Ale Braggot. Instead of Hops it's using more ancient traditional herbs. The Heather is considered for bittering while Meadowsweet is also commonly found in mead and ales.
You can add .10 Kent Golding Hops at 60 mins to get more modern bittering effect.
This is an experimental recipe! Built using tea tests. It may need tweaking to get the herbs flavors to show or maybe reduce them!
Optional: Remove Meadow Sweet for Heather only ale.
Optional: Dry hop with Heather after fermentation.
Optional: Skip Co2 phase because most likely ancient ales were flat :( I'll be carbonating.
Wort Notes:
After 45-60 min Mash I sparged the BIAB with a pour over 32oz warm water. This makes total boil slightly more than 2 gallons.
Optional: Start of boil pull 2 cups wort and separately boil down into syrup. Then add this back in to the boiling wort.
Do a Yeast starter using 6g of GoFerm and 5g Safale yeast early into brew so it has time to start.
Style Notes:
After lots of searching the feedback i got is a Scotch Ale or Wee Heavy is a good place to start for a Braggot. Recipe is Shooting for 50% honey so I can feel like it's a Braggot.
The Wee Heavy style suggests longer boil times to get more malty flavors. So I am starting with 2 gallons and a 90 minute boil, targeting 1 gallon. You may need to add more water as you go to keep in line. Use a dip stick to measure.
