New World Pale Ale
American Pale Ale • All Grain • 19.50 L
After a long break due to the pandemic of COVID-19, I am back to brewing. This is an ordinary pale ale with a bit of residual style except the choice of hops. I am looking for the best mix of hops including Nelson Sauvin.

This variety imparts certain grape like flavours to the beer; flavours which have yet to be positively identified. To acknowledge this Sauvignon Blanc flavour the variety was named Nelson Sauvin.

- 0.5 tsp
Yeast Nutrient (AKA Fermax) - Add to boil for 10 mins. (omitted from calculations)
Yeast Nutrient (AKA Fermax)
Helps yeast stay active during fermentation
- 1.0 tsp
Irish Moss - Add to boil for 15 mins. (omitted from calculations)
Irish Moss
A dried red-brown marine algae. Fining agent to remove large proteins. Negatively charged polymer attracts positively charged protein-tannin complexes (extracted from grain husks and hops) during the boil. This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.

Omega Yeast Labs OYL061 Voss Kveik
Omega Yeast Labs OYL061 Voss Kveik
Voss Kveik is a proprietary strain that you will not find anywhere else. A traditional Norwegian "kveik"? strain from the farmhouse brewery of Sigmund Gjernes in Voss, Norway, this strain (like OYL-057 HotHead) is capable of fermenting across a broad temperature range with little change in flavor profile. Voss Kveik is non-phenolic and produces a beer with moderate citrus notes allowing it to pair very well with citrusy and fruity hops. This strain is not fast at the low end of the range so don be afraid to pitch at temperatures in the middle to upper part of the range. Ferments between 68-98° F.
Notes
1 campden tablet is added for each of mashing water and sparging water. 1 tsp gypsum is added to mashing water. 1 step temperature mashing for 90 mins with mash-out for 10 mins. Temperatures are, strike: 74.9C, saccharification: 67.0C, mash-out: 75.6C. FWH with 7g of summit pellet hop. Brewed on 9/2/20. OG was 1.062. Moved to the secondary on 9/27/20.
