Notes

**This is interesting, it is a meaty beer, my wife likes it, but I am not so taken with it. However, I am using the sour culture to ferment leftover beers from other batches that are being poured into the container until it hits 3gallons and a FG of 1.000.

11/29/19-Experimental Beer:

Buckwheat Flour will be cereal mashed prior to the regular mash. Mashed in at 149F, wrapped in a towel to hold a decent temp, will mash for 1hour. 1/2G yeast starter using the leftover wort from the Winter Warmer (approx. 1.068, so 1# dark dme in 1/2G H2O equivalent). There is hibiscus and orange in the honey, so I am eliminating the 2t. of lemon zest from the recipe (whirlpool), the tart flavor should already be there. Someone used all my soy sauce for Thanksgiving, so if I want it (2tsp) I will add it at bottling/kegging. I also added my natural sour culture from our grapes and some live-culture apple cider vinegar just for good measure.

Soy Sauce and lemon zest 2tsp. each, may be added at bottling. Coriander Seed, Red Chili Paste (dry flakes) in Whirlpool.
