So who's brewing this weekend?

splitmelt · Jan 26, 2012

Thinking of brewing a Cream Ale of some sort this weekend, so it'll be ready for springtime. Any decent extract/partial mash recipes anyone could suggest?

Today is my birthday so I've taken the day off to brew (boo-yeah!).

Brewing a New Belgium Snow Day clone (mini-mash).

Kids are at school, wife is at work, blues are on the stereo, wort is at a boil and life is grand.

Go with the original:

Blue Moon Belgian White was first sold commercially as Belly Slide Belgian White at the SandLot Brewery at Coors Field during the 1995 opening season.

We did do a little fine tuning of the recipe, which was developed by Dr. Keith Villa of Coors R&D. Mostly to do with the ratio of Orange Peel to Corriander.

The amounts of grains we used are roughly:
50% 2 row pale malt. (The first couple of batches were made with Great Western)
40% white wheat malt
10% flaked oats.

Hallertauer Mittelfrueh hops were added for a 90 minute boil. Bittering should be around 17.5 IBU. Only one addition.

Blue Moon has always used pre-ground corriander and Valencia orange peel. Keith did not want the bitterness of Curacao oranges. He preferred the sweetness of the ground Valencia.

Try 1.25 tsp of ground corriander added to the kettle 10 minutes before the end of boil. This is for a 5-6 gallon batch.

Add 0.33tsp of ground Valencia orange peel 5 minutes before the end of boil.

The Chico strain would work well in this recipe. You want a neutral taste from the yeast. Keith has said that the flavors that should come through are the orange peel and corriander, not the yeast.

Be careful when lautering. I have made this recipe and some variations of it in three different pubs, with three different systems. I usually have trouble and end up sticking the mash. Run off very slowly.

Wolfhound180 · Jan 28, 2012

Well 24lbs 5oz is pretty much my max in the 10 gallon mash tun for me! This is one big fricken beer.

English bitter is now on the boil.

TomSD · Jan 28, 2012

Just assembled my new Blichmann burner and put a pot on to start my brew day. Today it is an English pale ale.

I could fling my old Bayou burner around like it was nothing but this thing is a tank. And boy does it heat up water.
