Surprise! Jamil Show: Can You Brew It tonight!

[San_Diego_Matt]

I listened to the Green Flash show and Chuck was very informative about the beer. Of course I had no idea that it wouldn't be up immediately for download so I didn't save a copy of it or anything.

Patience is a virtue though

[Brew Engineer]

Or maybe it was because when I came up to the kitchen sink to clean the Corny Fermentor, I spilled PBW all over the floor...

Yeah, but think about how clean the floor is now...she should be thanking you.

I tried that angle, but at teh time, she wasn't buying it...

The attenuation is high, so be sure to factor this into your grain bill. I think my hops are accurate, but I might have bumped them a little.

Justin,
You still owe us a posting of the Malt Liquor show - which I know you are going to do soon because you are a stand up guy.

Actual OG: 1.070 Actual FG: 1.015
2 Vials of White Labs WLP001 California Ale yeast grown up on a 1.035 2 liter stir plate starter for approximately 16 hours before pitching.

Pitched at 68F. Allowed it to rise during the natural heat created during fermentation up to 70F.
Fermented in 6 gallon carboy. Fermented 7 days before dry hopping.
Not transferred or yeast not removed before dry hopping.
Dry hopped for 7 days at 64F. Agitated the dry hop every other day.

I added enough Gypsum to get my water up to approximately 50ppm Calcium, Chuck's starting with 60-70ppm Calcium in Vista, CA (I said 100 on the show, it's actually 60-70), and might be hitting at least 100ppm Calcium in the finished beer. The water in Vista, CA in North San Diego county is pretty hard. See the 2007 water report for that area here: http://www.vid-h2o.org/pdf/publication/CCR_2007.pdf

This homebrew recipe turned out just fantastic, I'd say it was totally cloned. We tapped 5 gallons in the studio on Monday, and I'd say at this rate the keg won't last much longer.

Potential recipe improvements: Accentuate bitterness in the finish a bit more with water adjustments and/or hit about 35IBU at 90 minutes instead of 25. I would do 25IBU of Simcoe and 10IBU of Columbus there instead of just Simcoe. Also don't be afraid to calculate this recipe out to 105-110IBU. Use Carastan 30-70 if you can instead of Crystal 40L.

Brew it up and enjoy.
