DBass Ale,Pale Ale,5.0,3,Extract,1.048,0.000
M Bass Ale
M
M Source: Ron Ezetta (rone@badblues.wr.tek.com)
M Digest: 1/15/92
M
M Ingredients:
M
M 7 pounds Steinbart's American Light Extract
M 1 pound Crystal malt 40L
M 1 pound Dark brown sugar
M Be damned German purity law!
M 1 ounce Northern Brewer (60 minute boil)
M 1 ounce Fuggle (30 minute boil)
M 1/2 ounce Fuggle (10 minute boil)
M 1/2 ounce Fuggle (15 minute seep)
M yeast
M
M Procedure:
M
M Steep crystal malt and remove grains before boil begins. Add malt
M extract and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and boil for 60 minutes. Add 1
M ounce Northern Brewer at beginning of boil, 1 ounce of Fuggle at 30
M minutes and 1/2 ounce of Fuggle for the last 10 minutes. Turn off heat
M and add final 1/2 ounce Fuggle. Let steep for 15 minutes. Cool. Pitch
M yeast.
M
M Comments:
M
M I did a side by side comparison last night. The real Bass is slightly
M darker, more malty and more bitter with less hop flavor than I remember.
M I suspect that my sample bottle of Bass was not freshest (but that's one
M of the reasons we homebrew!). The homebrew Bass has significantly more
M fuggle hop aroma and flavor. I'd like to think that my version is a
M "Northwest style" Bass. To better approach the real Bass, eliminate the
M 1/2 ounce of fuggles for the 10 minute boil, and steep the finish hops
M for 5 minutes. I would also try 80L crystal.

M Digest: 2/24/92
M
M Ingredients:
M
M 2.2 pounds light DME
M 3.3 pounds plain light malt extract
M 2 ounces roast barley
M 8 ounces crushed crystal malt.
M 2 ounces Fuggles (pellets)
M 1 ounce Goldings (pellets)
M 1/4 ounce Goldings (pellets)
M 1/2 ounce Goldings (pellets)
M Ale yeast
M gypsum and Irish moss, if necessary
M
M Procedure:
M
M This is a 5 gallon batch. Boil up a couple of gallons of water, add DME
M and LME, fuggles, and 1 ounce of goldings. Make tea out of roast barley,
M and strain into main boiler. Make tea out of crystal malt and strain
M into main boiler. (Half way through boil add local water ingredients and
M Irish moss if required). After boil, add 1/2 ounce of Goldings, cover
M and let stand for 15 minutes. Pour into primary, make up to 5 gallons
M and pitch yeast. Rack and add 1/4 ounce Goldings and complete
M fermentation.
M
M Comments:
M
M This was a little hoppy for my taste. I'd probably cut out the 1/4 ounce
M of Goldings at the end... Other than that, it made an incredible
M likeness of Bass ale and have had several friends comment on how much
M like Bass it really is...

M by

M Maxwell T. Sandford
M
M malt: 5# 2 row pale malt
M 1# Munich dark malt
M 1# Vienna malt
M specialty malt: 1/8# roasted barley
M
M boiling hops: 1 1/2 oz. whole Cascade hops (5.9%)
M 1/2 oz. Hallertau pellet hops (10 min)
M
M yeast: 1 package Whitbread ale yeast
M
M optional: 1 medium Birch branch, with leaves
M 1 tsp. Gypsum in mash water
M 1 tsp. Irish moss @ 45 min. boil
M
M Mash grains and adjunct 1 1/2 hour @ 155-160F. Iodine test showed
M conversion after 45 min. Sparge 4 1/2 gal. 160F water. Rack to
M secondary after 1 week. Birch branch in secondary fermenter for
M two weeks.
M
M Comments:
M This brew was developed as an ale to be consumed in conjunction
M with Finnish saunas. It is light, but satisfying and has a very
M slight flavor of Birch. Best when consumed during a brief resting
M period between cold plunge and sauna sessions. A small amount
M (1 oz) of this brew placed on the sauna rocks gives smell of bread
M and Birch.

M
M 6 lbs. light malt extract
M 1/2 lb crystal malt

M 1/4 lb malted wheat extract
M 1 1/2 oz Galena hops (45 min)
M 1/2 oz Kent Goldings hops (30 min)

M 1 pk Ale yeast
M
M This recipe makes 5 gallons. Start with 2 gallons of cold water
M in brewpot; add grains, bring brewpot to boil. Strain grains
M just before wort boils. I like to sparge the grains by rinsing
M with about a half gallon of hot (not boiling) water into the
M fermenter. Add extracts & Galena hops to brewpot and boil as
M listed (add the Kent Goldings after 15 minutes and Hallertauer
M last 7 minutes). Add wort to cold water in fermenter, top off
M with cold water to 5 gallons. Pitch yeast.
M
M Approx 4.5% alcohol
M
M This is a very robust porter with a delicate balance of bitter-
M ness and malt.
M Enjoy!

M
M Ingredients:
M
M 4 pounds dark malt extract
M 2 pounds soft brown sugar
M 8 ounces gravy browning (caramel)
M 1-3/4 ounces Fuggles hops

M
M Procedure:
M
M Boil hops in 20 pints of water for 1 hour. Strain and dissolve extract,

M at correct temperature.
M
M As in the previous recipe, this can be brought to a gravity of 1.045 by

M few drops of caramel may be added at this stage if sufficient color has
M not been achieved. Saccharine can be added at bottling to increase
M apparent sweetness.

M Use about 1.25 gallons of water, heat to about 140F, add crushed
M grain. The temp should be in the range of 122-130F for the protein
M rest. Hold this temp for 15 to 30 minutes. Bring temperature up to
M about 150F. You can add a bit of hot water or warm on a stove burner
M at a low setting. My boiling vessel is also my mash tun, a 12 quart
M stainless steel pot, which holds the mash at an even temperature when
M placed in the oven set to 200F. The temp of the mast will increase
M slightly, but this is done for step infusion anyway. Now is a good
M time to be heating the sparge water, 1.5 gallons to about 180F (which
M then should be 160-170 whn you need it at the end of the mash).
M
M Hold the mash at around 155F for 90 minutes or so, stirring every
M 15 minutes. Do an iodine starch test. If conversion is complete,
M bring mixture temp up to 170F and sparge in the lauter tun. This can
M be improvised with a nylon bag suspended in a 5 gal bucket. I use a
M perforated bottom bucket inside another bucket. Then rinse the grain
M with the sparge water. Allow the sparge water to drip rather slowly
M through the grains. I use a bottling bucket to hold the sparge water.
M Then boil the homemade extract and add the Premier extract, hops and
M other ingredients.
M
M Boil for an hour, cool pot in a sink of cold water for 15 minutes,
M mix with 3 gallons of water, take temp and gravity reading, pitch the
M yeast at 78F, ferment at room temperature as you would an ale.
M
M Some notes:
M I run the water through the grains twice to get it to run clear.
M The yeast will perform best if it is stepped up in sterile wort to
M increase the population. It will work OK if it is just pitched
M right from the bag it comes in, but will take longer to start and
M might not yield as clean tasting a brew.
M
M This is named cabin fever because it was brewed in April and there
M was still snow on the ground! One need not have sophisticated equip-
M ment to mast at home and the difference is worthwhile.
