Subject: Coffee Stout
I want to brew a coffee stout and the consensus for the best method from
prior info on hbd posts seems to be adding coarsely ground coffee to the
secondary just a day or two prior to bottling. My concern with this is the
possibility of contamination. Can anybody offer any suggestions as to the
specific method for keeping the beer sanitary? Are whole coffee beans in a
bag from the coffee shop typically sanitary? Any suggestions will be
appreciated.
Prost!

Subject: re: Kwak beer recipe
Hi All,
In HBD #6036 Carlos Nunez asked for help with a recipe for Kwak (made by
Bosteels Brewery in Belgium).
The book "Clone Brews" by Tess and Mark Szamatulski has a recipe for Kwak
that seems like it should get you pretty close. Here it is:
OG 1.081 to 1.086
FG 1.015 to 1.019
IBUs 18 to 20
SRM 15
11 lbs Belgian 2 row pilsner malt
2.5 lbs German munich malt
5 oz Special B malt
1.5 lbs Belgian clear candi sugar
2/3 oz challenger, 60 min boil
1 oz styrian goldings, 15 min boil
1/4 oz challenger, 3 min boil
1/4 oz Czech saaz, 3 min boil
1 tsp Irish moss, 15 min boil
Wyeast 1762 Belgian Abbey II (first choice)
Wyeast 1214 Belgian Abbey (second choice)
Mash all the grains in 150F water for 90 min
Add the candi sugar with the first hop addition
Ferment at 70 to 73F

Subject: Kwak
Carlos;
I made an attempt at a Kwak back in 1999. It was based upon David
Miller's book (which I have now given away), and came out pretty good. I
did not record the Whitelabs yeast number, but it was a Trappist that
could tolerate high gravity. The ingredients were:
8 lb Franc-Belgian Pils
4 lb Halcyon
1/2 lb brown sugar
1/8 cup black malt
4 oz Maltodextrin
1/2 lb wheat
some candi sugar (not sure how much, but I think a pound)
y
2 stage infusion,
1 oz northern brewse at 90 min
1 oz fuggles at 60
1 oz saaz at 30
yeast was slurry from previous batch
Final gravity was 9%
I am sure others have recipes that may be more true to the Kwak style. I
made this quite a while ago, but as I recall it tasted good.
Happy Brewing!
Darrell

Subject: RE: Three Brewers in Oakville, Ontario
Pat Babcock asks about the new 3 Brewers (it's Les 3 Brasseurs in Quebec)
pub in Oakville, Ontario. While that's not quite my immediate local
neighborhood, it's only a 20-25 minute drive, so I should be familiar with
it. I confess I haven't been there yet. I'm guessing the location was once
occupied by an outlet of the Gordon Biersch brewpub chain, which never
really succeeded in Canada and retreated to its US roots.
At any rate, I have been to Les 3 Brasseurs in Montreal, and I can report
that the beer was drinkable but not fabulous. They have expanded to about
10 locations in recent years, including one in downtown Toronto. Word from
those I generally trust is that they all have a certain house yeast flavor
that is somewhat distinctive and not loved by all, but you could do worse if
you happen to find yourself there.
Pat, I realize you are something of a captive of work when you are in
Oakville, which I'm sure you know has kind of a schizophrenic personality as
a city. It's at the same time a faceless suburb and also one of the
wealthiest communities in Canada in certain neighborhoods. Unfortunately
it's just not a great place for beer; you have to hunt a bit to find places
with the right selection.
In sum I'd say you might as well check it out. You're close enough that you
can walk 10-15 minutes back to your hotel.
Brew on!

Subject: Three Brewers in Oakville, Ont?
Greetings, Brewers! Take me to your lager...
I once again find my sorry behind in Oakville, Ontario Canada on
company business. When there, I typically spend my evening mealtime in
one of the variety of restaurants nearby to the plant. Lo and behold,
there's a new brewpub (since my last visit) in the mall at Upper
Middle and Winston Churchill. I see on their website that they have
multiple locations throughout Canada, the vast majority of which are
in Quebec. I will likely visit this place - being "right there", it
compels me - but can anybody tell me a bit about their beers and the
reputation?
Merci beaucoup!
