Please do keep us updated!
Just brewed this per the recipe posted by nikvolkert in post #40.
OG came in at 1.110, pitched a large starter of 1098, we shall see how it goes.
That's like 17% sugar? Surprising.
Whoa, how did you come by that?! That is awesome.
Could add some lactose when you bottle or keg it...
Or if you don't want sweetness from lactose, you could use about 150 grams of maltodextrin boiled in about 150mL, then cooled and mixed into the keg. I just did this to add body to an overly dry Irish stout. Maltodextrine is unfermentable (except by Brettanomyces yeast) and flavorless.
I brewed this recently. Started with the recipe from post #40 and tweaked it to brewery recipe posted later. I ended up using only 1 habenero, if it did it again I'd use 2...just seems to loose more after time.
Ended at 1.020. Pretty balanced, good mouth feel, etc. Pretty smooth for being you and ~11%.
Was thinking about entering it in a local comp. Any idea what category it would best fit in?
Did you ever post this recipe anywhere? I would like to brew the 4th Anniversary beer.Westbrook is great at helping homebrewers. They helped me form a Chocolate Almond Coconut Stout based on their 4th Anniversary beer.
Same hereDid you ever post this recipe anywhere? I would like to brew the 4th Anniversary beer.
Has anyone exactly scaled down lilbova3 recipe to a 5 gallon?
+1 for the 4th anniversary recipe
I’ve been waiting for an answer for months.
Did you use the scaled recipe that paarman posted?Picked up grains today and will be brewing tonight. Will be making a couple small modifications to the recipe I posted.
I'll be using WLP 023, going to pitch half or more of the yeast cake from the Graff that i'll be bottling while brewing this up.
Using Warrior instead of CTZ, I have another brew in planning that will use Warrior so given that it's only really playing a bittering role I decided to use it in this too.
LHBS, also a hydroponics store, had a bunch of Carolina Reepers they were trying to get rid of, so instead of the habenero I'll be using that. Just need to decide how much since the Reeper should be much hotter than a habenero.
More to come...
No, I used the recipe I posted on page 2
Cool--just making sure it wasn't page 7 on a different thread!Sorry yes, dang mobile app shows it as page 7, but web site shows it as 2.
