Last time I did this, I put the pumpkin in the boil. This time, I’m trying the pumpkin in the mash. All else should be equal regarding ingredients! I broke my hydrometer brewing batch 25, so I couldn’t measure the final gravity of this delicious beer, but I’m assuming it’s around 8-8.5% ABV<\/p>\n
Brewed September 28th<\/p>\n
Recipe Type:<\/strong>\u00a0All-Grain 10# 2-row 1oz Hallertauer, 60 minutes strike with 4 gallons of 165*F water, to reach 152*F mash<\/p>\n sparge with 4 gallons of 180*F water<\/p>\n should bottle with 2\/3c brown sugar dissolved in 2c water\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n I spread the pumpkin in a very thin layer on a series of baking sheets and was able to carmelize all of the pumpkin at 350*F in the oven for 1 hour.<\/p>\n I need to bottle this baby!! If it finishes around 1.015, it will yield roughly an 8% beer \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n 11\/3\/13 – bottled (with 2\/3c brown sugar in 2c water)! It is tasty, can’t wait to see what it’s like carbed. I couldn’t measure FG since I broke my hydrometer on Batch 25, and I haven’t gotten a new one … but the sample made me a little warm and toasty, so I am imagining it is up there. I was able to bottle in 2 hours, from beginning to boil the priming water to putting away the last clean piece of equipment. I call that a “win”.<\/p>\n 11\/23\/13 – this ale, as well as Batch 22, received high praise by colleagues at a pre-thanksgiving party! strong endorsements from a few people who don’t typically enjoy beer, and one endorsement of the “best pumpkin beer [they’ve] ever tasted” … nice \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last time I did this, I put the pumpkin in the boil.
