   2
   3 <p>Hops are all added every five minutes for the time they are in.</p>
   4
   5 <p>This is not ideal: the last 30 minutes should have Citra, but the LHBS was out, and the next-to-local brewshop owner decided that leaving 20 minutes early and depriving me of Citra would be fun. So, since this is being brewed under a deadline (Summer Solstice!), I innovated and used a bit of Sorachi Ace (100% for 30/25, 70% for 20 -> 5) and more Cascade instead (70% for 20 -> 5).</p>
   6
   7 <ul>
   8 <li>120g (~4.2 oz) Chinook @ 60min -> 5 min</li>
   9 <li>134g Cascade @ 20 min -> 5 min + ~2g @ 5min (finish off the 2oz packet)</li>
  10 <li>41g Sorachi Ace @ 30 min -> 5 min + 0.05oz @ 5 min</li>
  11 </ul>

  13 <h1>Changes from 4C</h1>
  14
  15 <p>The most obvious: doubled to ten gallons! Hop balance is being kept the same since I think it's pretty spot on. I wasn't too keen on the extra Citra flavors at first, but over time it grew upon me. So, this time I'm changing the grain bill up a bit. A bit of 60L crystal has been dropped in favor on a small amount of Munich and Victory malts to achieve a similar color. Ideally, this will make the malt base a tiny bit more complicated and able to handle the hop load.</p>
  16
  17 <p>Water ratios in the mash have been changed a bit in an attempt to get (roughly) equal sparges.</p>
  18
  19 <p>Since I have two fermenters, this is going on to two yeasts. I chose Beligan Ardennes arbitrarily: the description made it sound like an English ale yeast with a Belgian phenolic bent... so, hopefully with (relatively) low fermentation temps it'll produce a bit of funkiness without tasting like highly hopped diesel fuel.</p>

  21 <h2>Water Chemistry</h2>
  22
  23 <p>An attempt at improved water chemistry has taken place. We need to raise the mash pH very slightly since this is closer to amber than pale -- based on 5.75 gal of mash water, John Palmer's magic spreadsheet says I need to use ~2g of chalk to get to around the correct RA. The Internet (and my own sense) says that modifying the sparge water is pointless -- the water is close enough that the pH will at worst go out of range for enzyme activity, but not into the danger zone for flavor problems.</p>
  24
  25 <p>I swapped the Water Crystals for Epsom Salt and gypsum (basically out, and that's what it is anyway).</p>
  26
  27 <p>For flavor modification, I assumed 11 gal of the base water profile + 28 ppm Ca from the mash chalk (according to Palmer's spreadsheet...). The previous water additions would have yielded (ppm):</p>
  28
  29 <ul>
  30 <li>121 ppm Ca (slightly excessive)</li>
  31 <li>13 ppm Mg (good)</li>
  32 <li>53 ppm Na (acceptable)</li>
  33 <li>103 ppm Cl (somewhat excessive, but in balance with sulfate... some information implies this should be lowered)</li>
  34 <li>275 ppm sulfate (at the high end, probably OK due to high hopping level)</li>
  35 </ul>
  36
  37 <p>It's pretty reasonable, but a bit unbalanced in a few respects. So, I tweaked things ever so slightly (although I'm more likely than not tweaking things within the margin of error):</p>
  38
  39 <ul>
  40 <li>112 ppm Ca (still slightly excessive)</li>
  41 <li>13 ppm Mg (good)</li>
  42 <li>58 ppm Na (acceptable)</li>
  43 <li>87 ppm Cl (lowers the SO₄:Cl ratio, but the Internet says lots of Cl and lots of SO₄ is bad)</li>
  44 <li>285 ppm sulfate</li>
  45 </ul>
  46
  47 <p>I might want to hit almost 300 ppm sulfate, but doing so would require adding way to much Mg or Ca to the water.</p><h3>Instructions</h3><ol id="instruction"><li>Add 9.979 kg Pale Malt (2 Row) US, 680.282 g Caramel/Crystal Malt - 20L, 680.282 g Caramel/Crystal Malt - 40L, 566.902 g Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L, 453.592 g Victory Malt, 453.592 g Munich Malt, to the mash tun.</li><li>Bring 7.250 gal water to 168.000 F, 3.000 gal water to 210.000 F, 5.500 gal water to 182.000 F, for upcoming infusions.</li><li>Add 7.250 gal water at 168.000 F to mash to bring it to 151.000 F.
