Big Black IPA (BBIPA) 1 All Grain I soaked 50g of Still Spirits Tennessee Bourbon Chips in 100ml of Jack Daniels for 3-4 days in a closed jar in the fridge. I then added the contents of that jar (chips and bourbon) to the fermenter at the end of primary, adding the chips into a hop net. The chips stayed in the beer for approx 5 days. As this recipe is a Black IPA I didn't want a strong taste of whiskey and this amount/time was just perfect and mellow for what I was trying to achieve. To many this recipe probably shouldn't work but I was amazed at the results. A smooth velvet hoppy black IPA with a subtle hint of bourbon on the pallet....I loved it and will definitely brew it again. Don't be shy, give it a go! I bottled and kegged this one and both were equally as good, I probably could have gone a little more on the priming sugar when bottling, that's just personal taste. 20 24.88 60 72 1.07 1.013 7.48 % 7.48 % 53.7 1.07 SG 1.013 SG 33.1 SRM 2.3 new-dRiXrxq4UEJXXRWV7pYJq2dsiVQy5R Hallertau Magnum 1 13.5 0.0248 Boil 60 new-c3yqr92Ni8JCSHIOIIc9OrjplgSpEw Amarillo 1 6.9 0.0128 Boil 10 default-c20dd823 Challenger 1 7.5 0.0128 Boil 10 default-ea710d2c Azacca 1 15 0.0216 Boil 5 new-bwiiWezH3qAmnuUMd0jh953FLAykSn Cascade 1 6.9 0.0216 Boil 5 new-BWG8j08h0xrPohrAG5HyfnV3O9CSIq Columbus 1 6.9 0.0264 Boil 0 default-d0f34078 Eureka! 1 18 0.0264 Boil 0 new-BWG8j08h0xrPohrAG5HyfnV3O9CSIq Columbus 1 6.9 0.0432 Dry Hop 7200 new-p8DuC7bCcYmRcQdaP4Evv0CiKVwZqI wahatu 1 11.5 0.0432 Dry Hop 7200 default-8e9450d5 Citra 1 12 0.0264 Dry Hop 2880 new-BWG8j08h0xrPohrAG5HyfnV3O9CSIq Columbus 1 6.9 0.0264 Dry Hop 2880 new-BLOVNUZZgZtxDsNF7ZPpNudF8lIRzq BEST Pale Ale (BESTMALZ) BESTMALZ Germany 1 Grain 5.58 82.8 3.0456853 FALSE false NaN new-wgZsbJLp9u1hJgZdm1Q3d82xvSlIdp Carafa Special III (Weyermann) Weyermann Germany 1 Grain 0.25 75.74 470 FALSE false NaN new-QmUm2lVXHpfRdwl9Hzoh4axi9vwV24 Crystal UK 1 Grain 0.25 69 73.604061 FALSE false NaN default-c359422 Chocolate Malt UK 1 Grain 0.13 69 600.7614213 FALSE false NaN default-3b1827 Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) 1 Water Agent Mash 0 0.0006 0.6 g true default-bk9j78 Canning Salt (NaCl) 1 Water Agent Mash 0 0.003 3 g true default-4e9d62 Epsom Salt (MgSO4) 1 Water Agent Mash 0 0.0008 0.8 g true default-1f88df Gypsum (CaSO4) 1 Water Agent Mash 0 0.0006 0.6 g true default-mv8127 Magnesium Chloride (MgCl2) 1 Water Agent Mash 0 0.0008 0.8 g true default-016fa4 American Oak Cubes, Heavy Toast 1 Flavor Secondary 0 0.04 40 g true new-Z9cagslcYuySRhpaAhl68AaOf1OiDz Jack Daniels 1 Flavor Secondary 0 0.08 80 ml false default-c47fa8 Windsor Yeast 1 Ale 2 Lallemand (LalBrew) 2 pkg 75 GF Clone 66 Gradi Fissi 1 20 Mash Step 1 Infusion 66 60 20.27 Grainfather 1 24.88 20 1 3.5 60 100 12.057877813504824 true Imported 3 3 18 5 20 30 21
