Has anyone thought about adding some vanilla to this beer? Seems like it would go well with the coriander.
I did a beer view to this recipe on youtube. I followed the recipe exactly. What an awesome brew!!

I ordered all the ingredients for this and plan on brewing it this weekend, however NB sent me crystal hops instead of cascade. I am not familiar with crystal...
Will these work or should I just hold off until I get the cascades?

If you want vanilla, just make this

Is it sweet orange peel? Bitter orange peel orange zest what r people doing?
It would become a hoppy saison, which I think would be pretty good, actually.
dadnboys said:I have wanted to brew this recipe for some time. I had planned 2 other recipes ahead of it, however. My brew buddy said he was making a barley wine with all Maris Otter base malt and I could use the second runnings! Bought the other ingredients for the Orange Pale Ale and I was on my way! I did a mini mash with 4 lbs Maris Otter and the specialy grains, decanted the tea to my brew pot, dumped the grains atop his sparged grain bed and sparged some more. At 6.5 gal collected in brew pot, the SG (adjusted for temp) was 1.057) almost dead on. The only recipe changes were-I used fresh Cascade hops that I grew myself (10 min, 5 min) and subbed Citra for Cascade in the 1 min hop addition. I'll let you know how it tastes. My suggestion, however, if you're making a big 10 gal Maris Otter beer, this recipe lends itself to a great 2nd running 5 gal batch. You could possiblly steep the specialty grains like a PM recipe, although i did not. Thanks black lab! Ending SG litte high at 1.064
OK, I just cracked my first bottle after 1 week. There is one thing I would change in the future. When I transferred to the secondary fermentor I tasted the beer. The sweet orange was too subtle for me so I added about 2T of fresh grated orange peel to the secondary. Unfortunately, this was too much orange and now it has a super orange nose and taste. I think I just created a fruit beer. Delicious and dangerously way to easy to drink, but too orange right now.
I still need to brew this. This may be my first beer when I finish my 2.5 gallon setup
I'm gonna LE mine sit on the yeast a little bit longer.... It only been in there since Monday. Probably going to let it go till next Friday or so and then dry hop for 5 days. Cold crash and keg.
Just threw mine into cold crash with 32g Motueka and 36g Cascade. Gravity sample was really good, nice hint of spice from the coriander, but not much from the orange. Still made beer though
Transferred mine to dry hop it /dry peel it. Going to give it a week then bottle it
