#033 Toasted Coconut Porter 1.0 & 1.1

adding a 1028 to one of these as well, I overlooked the name change due to the "Ale" on the end of the recent packaging update and assumed that I had must have picked up one of each. Hoping to get a difference in yeast character from each car boy.

 

made some All grain starter wort

two 1968 yeast starters

The Stage

raising the strike water

low mash temp, had to resolve that

beginning of wort transfer to reheat mash

just before boil, almost there

near the end of boil

in process

#032 Berliner Weisse 1.2

Stuck mash nightmare, poor process and planning.

thickest mash ever!

oatmeal sludge.

Burnt kettle gunk.

New Post brew process works like a charm.

Love the digital thermometer post plate-chiller allowing me to knock down temp to 81° in a single pass. This will encourage me to drop temp over night from now on and pitch yeast the next morning as Wort acclimates to pitching temp in fermentation freezer.

Wort = nasty thick , lemony tart, clean, yet gross.

The Rare Barrel - Base Recipes

The Rare Barrel - Base Recipes
New show on the Brewing Network called The Sour Hour featuring host Jay Goodwin, co-founder of The Rare Barrel. On episode 1 he gave The Rare Barrel base malt bills. On episode 2, he clarified a bit more. I thought I'd type these grists up and see how we can play with them.

Here's the Barrel Bruin recipe. If anyone has objections, say something. I calculated this for 5 gallons, all grain, at 75% efficiency. Roughly the same as the other recipes which have turned out OK.

I left the yeast off, I'll leave that up to you guys, just pick something Belgian, trappist/abbey if you can. I think that'll lay a good base.

Do take note of the specialty grains even if you're doing extract, it'll help us get enough unfermentables for the bugs, color for the bruin and body etc...

Shaun O'Sullivan Here ya go. This recipe was created by Jared Shoupe and passed along to me: 

Ingredients

3# pickling cucumber
12oz pale hoppy beer
1/4 cup water
2 cups distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon whole peppercorn
1 tablespoon mustard seed
2 cloves garlic smashed
1/2 oz whole cascade hops

Process

Put beer, water, vinegar, salt, sugar, garlic in a saucepan. Heat med high stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. After dissolved, let heat to simmer,turn off heat. Disperse all other ingredients into sanitized (boil all parts) mason jars evenly (it should all fit in a 64oz jar, two 32oz, etc.). Let brining liquid cool 15 minutes and pour over cucumbers with hops and remaining pickling spices (peppercorns, mustard seed and smashed garlic). Seal jars and refrigerate immediately, the cooling will seal the jar. If cucumbers are sliced, they should be ready in a week. Whole will take 2 weeks, but have better crunch.

Kettle Sour,
Mash as normal
Transfer to Kettle
run through chiller and recirc until mash is down to 120°, stop recirc and purge with flush with Co2 (not O2) until down to 110° and hold

-pitch at 110° and sample every 10 hours


PH for beers
berliner Weisse 3.2-3.4

sounds like there is no boil?!

Episode 1-3

Episode 1

Every year or two, hand down clean post boil equipment to your sour beer
-racking canes
-funnels
-air locks
-etc

Recommend high mash temp for sours

Flush barrel with oxygen before introducing beer, you want a slow introduction to oxygen through the wood.

Barrel Storage per THE RARE BARREL per 59 gallon barrel; 
8 oz citric acid
1 lb potassium metabisulfite

Jolly Pumpkin Bam Biere is laid in oak for 3 weeks

SOUR NOTES

sour notes with Jen Talley

Use great quality Malt (Weyermann)
15-20% Munich Malt
Mash 156°-158°
Don't use Carapils
don't bottle a "sick" beer
When topping off, don't pour on top of the pelical, break it and use a
tube to pour under the pelical

on another note, "Dry-Hop the shit out of that!"
