brewed with maple before

2007-10-11 7:08pm

I have brewed with maple before, a maple and orange "braggot" called The red dog maple braggot. the recipe uses no honey. the presence of maple at the level in my recipe makes for an incredibly cloying and sweet brew, but with very pleasant woody tones. i still have a few bottles left and am planning on opening for thanksgiving. at any rate, maple in a porter sounds really quite awesome, but be forewarned that the estery qualities of maple take quite some time to age out.

thanks jordan

yes, i'm aware of the words you speak. i made a maple oat ale that you can search on here for as well. i made some comments to that. it turned out to be a 1.75 gallon batch(trial) and i split that up into 2 single gallon batches. i had initially boiled in a half lb of maple. when i split up into the secondary, i added another half lb of maple into one of the single gallon jugs! i never took the finally gravities...the one where i didn't do an additional mellowed out over a few weeks and was just really great. the one with the additional maple is wicked. the alc lvl is so high and it's sooooo overpowering. this is actually a mod of a maple porter i found on byo. i wanted to use oats though(slightly obsessed). even though you're supposed to mash them i still find you get the creamy qualities out of them when steeped, just imo.

too cloying

i believe next time i try this recipe i'll knock down the amout of crystal. i may just use .25 of 40 again or maybe even 60. i think i'd also use only a half lb of maple. lots of people say that when they make beers with maple it loses the mapleness after a month. i found the taste to really overpower the whole beer well after 2 months of bottle conditioning. the alc was too high as well. i would try maybe 3.3 lbs of alex and a lb of muntons light dry extract. experimenting with maple was fun but not sure if i'll try it again.
