Notes

Brewed for 2014 BFD dynamic Duo spring competition. 2 malts, 2 hops, og 1040-1050. We decided to modify Janets Brown ale to use that style. We should have mashed higher, 156, instead we mashed 151 for 60m. We should have caramelized first 1g. We ran into mash tun issues, so we mashed in one pot, and transfered to his small kettle with a modified drain hose added to sparge. Worked out well, but was not optimal from an HSA side. I took 1.25 gallon and pitched a small amount of the starter 1968. I plan on dry hopping using Hot tea method described in new brewing lager beer 170* water soak, pitch with water, 1/4 cup for Dry hopped on 3/17/14 Bottle conditioned with 25g brown sugar. 5 quarts. 6 bombers, 1/2 16oz. Bottled on 3/27/14 Original recipe from AHA Janet’s Brown Ale Janet’s Brown Ale is no stranger to the world of homebrewing recipes. Mike McDole took home a medal when this recipe won gold in Category 10: Brown Ale at the American Homebrewers Assocation (AHA) National Homebrew Competition (NHC) in 2004. The award winning recipe was then featured in Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer’s book, Brewing Classic Styles, as an example of a bigger, hoppier American Brown Ale. In 2009, McDole took gold again at the AHA NHC with an updated recipe that he categoraized as Imperial Brown Ale, but this time in Category 23: Speciality Beers. Though Janet’s Brown Ale deviates a bit from the style guidelines for a traditional American Brown Ale, surely you will not be upset by the higher IBUs and ABV after taking a sip! TastyMcD wrote: My Janet's Brown Ale recipe is below. I've never made this beer as an extract. I welcome someone to convert this to extract for those who for some reason don't have a copy of Brewing Classic Styles. If you can't get Northern Brewer, I would use either Simcoe, Columbus, or Summit. Let me know if you have any questions.
