Notes
Adapted from HomeBrewTalk's 999 Barleywine swap, originally from BrewPastor Intended to be a partygyle that will end up with 4.5 gallons of 1.119 barleywine and ~4 gallons of 1.062 "small" beer The chocolate malt should be pale chocolate malt Use a large starter or 2 packs of yeast Mash at 150°F for one hour (8.9 gallons at 164°F depending on grain temperature) Assuming around .2 gallons absorbed per lb you get 3.2 gallons as first running. Put this in a separate pot for the BW. Double batch sparge with 180°F water. About 3.7 gallons each. Put ~2.5 gallons of the first batch sparge into the BW kettle and then collect the rest in the Small Beer kettle. Collect all of the 2nd batch sparge for the small beer. Hopefully we end up with pre-boil OGs of 1.0826 and 1.047 respectively. (These are calculated without the gravity points from the sugar) If not then either mix from one container to the other or dilute when necessary. Near the end of the boil add 1 lb sugar to the BW and .5 sugar to the small beer. Check gravities and boil down to correct gravity Hops in the recipe go as follows BW: 1.5 ounces pacific gem 60 min 1 ounce centennial 25 min 1 ounce centennial 0 min 1 ounce cascade 0 min Small Beer: (IPA like?) .75 ounces pacific gem 60 min .5 ounce centennial 25 min .5 ounce cascade 0 min .5 ounce centennial 0 min Dry hop with 1 ounce cascade
