2018/1848 Winter Warmer - Batch #12

Based off 1848 Barclay Perkins IBSt - From "The Home Brewer's Guide to Vintage Beer"  ISBN: 978-1-59253-882-9

I made a starter with 1 cup water, 2x packets of  Wyeast 1098, 1 cup Dry Malt Extract (DME), and 1 tsp yeast nutrients.

All grain in a 10 gallon cooler.

4.5 gallons @ ~188 F added to mash. Sparged 4 gals @ 180F.

21 lbs pale malt 2-row
2.75 lbs amber malt
.75 lbs black malt
1 lbs DME (added this to up the OG, and since I had the remainder from the starter)

7.5 oz US Golding @ 90 mins
7 oz US Golding @ 60 mins
1.5 oz US Golding @ 30 mins (original recipe called for 7 oz here, but with the volume of hops already in the boil this seemed like overkill)

To make this a winter warmer at 10 mins I added 1 oz cinnamon sticks, 1 Tbsp all spice, 1 Tbsp vanilla, and 1 lbs brown sugar.

4 gallon yield @ 1.070 OG

No bubbling in airlock as of 7/5. So I added a package of Nottingham Ale yeast and Beer Nutrients (zinc). Still didn't see any bubbling, but check gravity on 7/8 and measured 1.015.

Added 1/4 cup brown sugar for priming. Bottled on 7/20 with FG of 1.014 (ABV 7.35% from https://www.brewersfriend.com/abv-calculator/). Yielded 24 12oz bottles and 3 22oz. Placed bottles under the house where the temperature max was 64F.
