Last weeks Sunday Session- July 8 2013

[barrskimberly]

Hi. I am new to the Forum and a fairly new listener of The Sunday Session. Last week's show talked about Tasty's recipe for a rye pale, but it did not mention where to go for the recipe. Can you give me any additional information on where I can go to listen to brewing tips and get recipe info.

Thanks,

Kim

I have gotten to the point where if I want to find anything I just Google or Bing it. You most certainly are listening to Can you brew it and Brew Strong. Nothing beats those shows. Dare I mention Basic Brewing Radio! It's got a different feel and approach entirely, but it is another "reliable source".
Beersmith Cloud probably has, what is now, the largest online collection of recipes.

I have yet to see Tasty's Rye recipe yet.

Cheers
Scott

Haven't listened to the show (other than live, which means I really don't remember much from it. ).

Could it have been the Terrapin Rye show of CYBI?

I'd start with Denny Conn's Rye IPA recipe and turn it into an APA by lowering the gravity a bit and changing the hops to American C-Hops:

====================================================
Here's Denny's I Googled from the web:

Denny Conn's Rye IPA ::: 1.069/1.015 (6 Gal)
Grain Bill (70% Efficiency assumed)

11 lb.- 2-Row Pale Malt
3 lb. - Rye Malt (15 L)
1.25 lb. - Crystal Malt (60L)
1/2 lb. - CaraPils
1/2 lb. - Flaked Wheat

Hop Schedule (48 IBU)

1 oz - Mt. Hood Hops [5.1% AA] (First Wort Hop) 1 oz - Columbus Hops [16.5% AA] (60 min.)
1/2 oz - Mt. Hood Hops (30 min.)
1.5 oz. - Mt. Hood Hops (1 min.)
1 oz. - Columbus Hops (Dry Hopped)

Yeast

Wyeast (1450) - Denny's Favorite or Wyeast (1272) Amercan Ale II - 1800 ml starter

Mash/Sparge/Boil

Mash at 153° for 60 min.
Sparge as usual
Cool and ferment at about 68°

===================================================

Here's how I'd approach converting it into an APA:
(Note that I did not fire up any software, but rather ballparked these amounts in my head as a reasonable starting point. You will want to plug these into your own brewing software and adjust malt and hop bills to aim for around 1.052 and around 38 IBUs.

Grain Bill (70% Efficiency assumed into about a 5.5 gallon batch)

Use your brewing software to adjust the base malt amount using your own efficiency to hit ~1.052 OG.

~8 lb.- 2-Row Pale Malt
3 lb. - Rye Malt (15 L)
3/4 lb. - Crystal Malt (60L)
1/2 lb. - CaraPils
1/2 lb. - Flaked Wheat

Hop Schedule (38 IBU) - adjust the weight of the 60 minute addition to hit 38 IBUs.
Depending on the %AA of the late hops, you may need to adjust (or even eliminate) the amount and/or timing of the 60min addition. Plug the other hops in to your software first then adjust the 60 min addition accordingly.

1/2 oz. - Centennial 10% (60 min)
1 oz. - Cascade 6% (15 min.)
1 oz. - Willamette 6% (10 min.)
1 oz. - Zythos (5 min.)
1 oz. - Simcoe (0 min)
1 oz. - Chinook (Dry Hopped)

Yeast
Wyeast (1450) - Denny's Favorite or Wyeast (1272) Amercan Ale II - 1800 ml starter
(or WLP001 or Safale US-05 or Nottingham)
Mash/Sparge/Boil

Mash at 152° for 60 min.
Sparge as usual
Cool and ferment at about 68°

Not exactly what you were asking for but it should be a good starting point for you to begin with on your quest to perfecting it.
