Stats
Batch size: 6.5 gal
OG: 1.096
FG: 1.016
ABV: 10.1%
Color (SRM): 6
IBU: 29
FG and ABV projections based on 80% attenuation of grain sugars, 100% attenuation of dextrose
Fermentables
20 lb Belgian Pilsner
1 lb Flaked Wheat
3 lb Dextrose
Hops
1.5 oz Northern Brewer (60 min)
0.5 oz Celeia (20 min, 10 min, 0 min)
Mash Schedule:
Heat strike water to 136F for a target mash-in temperature of 120F. Hold 20 min. Raise temperature to 149F and hold until conversion is complete. Pull a decoction, boil 30 min, and return decocted portion to raise MLT temperature >170F. Boil first 8 gal of runnings for 120 min.
Step up starter of WY3787 (Trappist High Gravity) in 1.040 and 1.080 wort. Pitch at 65F. Beginning on the third day of fermentation, allow temperature to increase 3-5 degrees per day to no higher than 80F.
Notes
I think I'm going to minimash some biscuit, caramunich, and munich in the last bit of runnings to make a smaller beer. I have no idea what to expect for the gravity, though. I'm planning on Perle and Saaz for hops and a cool fermentation with pacman.
