I have a gallon of fresh (unpasteurized) Blackberry Cider that I bought on an impulse buy.
Decided to make a Blackberry Ale for the wife. I did an Apple Ale in the Spring and she really enjoyed it. I'm a kit brewer wondering if the Specialty Grains and yeast etc...would be good simply by switching the Apple Extract/Apple Cider this Recipe Calls for with Blackberry Extract/Cider.
My Summary of the recipe:
Recipe Type: Extract
Yeast: Wyeast Cider 3766
Yeast Starter: None
Batch Size (Gallons): 5
Original Gravity: 1.060
Final Gravity: 1.014
IBU: 10
Steep Grains: 30 min
Boiling Time (Minutes): 60
Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 7 days @66F
Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 7 days @66F
Amount of Item
Fermentables: 6 lbs Pilsen LME 1 pound Brown Sugar
Specialty Grains 1lb Honey Malt
½ oz Hallertau bittering hops. @(60 Minutes)
1 lb Brown Sugar @(10min)
½ oz Hallertau flavor hops @(5 min)
*1 gal Fresh Cider @1-3 days during active fermentation
4 oz. extract @ bottling
