Notes

Do not trust the FG numbers because of the lactose, etc---------------------------All grains and pumpkin go in the mash. If the pumpkin is in the boil you will most likely lose a gallon of water, and have a tough time straining the pumpkin out.The sugars go in at 60 min except that Lactose that goes at 15.The pumpkin should be cleaned and cut into small cubes and baked for 45 mins at 350, then mashed and coated with honey. Then baked for another 45 mins at 350. Let it cool to 154 and add to mash.For the vanilla bean vodka solution, 1/2 vanilla beans are cut in half. The seeds and goodies are then scraped into 1oz of vodka. Let the vodka sit for two weeks.----------------------Recipe from http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/southern-tier-pumking-clone-191381/index20.html (gwdlaw) and http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/16367/southern-tier-pumking-clone and http://bullcityhomebrew.com/recipes.aspx?id=Pumpkin%20Spiced%20Ale%20(All%20Grain).xml(all over the place)

--------------------

The mash numbers are a rough estimate. Adjust as needed

Other Notes, etc:

It didn't start to really show some air lock activity for 18 hours. From my reading, that is not too abnormal. Furthermore, it is probably colder with the swamp cooler method

2013-09-22 Racking + Spices:

I racked the pumking beer and added the vodka mix. I racked into the gallon jug onto the vodka and also took a sample (before vodka). I got 1.031 (1.032 with temp) which Brewers Friend says is 10.5 ABV. I calculated that the vodka should add 0.3% to that but we'll see based on how much gets into the bottle.

I basically filled the gallon jug. That means I still lost a good amount to yeast/trub. But I do think I did a better job than ever before at getting just about all of the liquid off the yeast!

Also, no graham cracker extract was added.

Here are my notes. Meredith was here for this too.
