Activity Log
Yeast Starter:
Two days before brew, took yeast smack pack out of fridge, smacked to break the nutrient ball and placed at 72f. One day before brew, boiled 5 oz of DME in 1.4L of water in flask and cooled. Shook to aerate, pitched yeast, covered top with alumininum foil and placed at 72 f.
Mash/Lauter/Sparge:
Heated 4.5 gallons of water to 168f and mixed in grain. Added cool water to bring temperature to 149 f. Let rest for 60 minutes adding heat at 30 minutes to keep temperature at 149. Added boiling water to bring to 168 f for mashout for 10 minutes. Recycled until relatively clear and collected 6.5 gallons in boil pot.
Boil:
Brought to boil and added sugar. Boiled for 30 minutes and added first hops. Boiled for 40 minutes and added second hops. Boiled for 5 minutes and added coriander, orange zest and irish moss. Boiled for 15 minutes and turned off heat. Ran through counterflow chiller and collected 5 gallons in 6.5 gallon carboy. Took specific gravity reading of 1.088 with refractometer. Thanks to Ed Seamen for pointing out that refractometer is only good for original gravity reading. Aerated by shaking carboy on folded towel and pitched yeast. Fitted with airlock and placed at 70 f.
Fermentation (target final gravity = 1.011):
Observations of primary stage
(14 days w/temp increasing to 72 f))
• 1 day: 70 f, 3/4 inch foam, 109 bubbles per minute
• 2 days: 71 f, 1/4 inch foam, 43 bubbles per minute
• 3 days: placed in office at 72 f while we were gone to Peoria
• 7 days: returned to fermenting booth at 72 f
• 8 days: 72 f, thin layer of foam, 6 bubbles per minute
• 11 days: 72 f, thin layer of foam, 5 bubbles per minute
Siphoned to 5 gallon carboy taking specfic gravity reading of 1.034. Filled 2 liter bottle 4/5 full, pressurized with 30 lb/sq in CO2 and put in fridge to force carbonate.
Observations of secondary stage
