What this sheet is for

Brew the same beer again, and say which bag of malt and which hop lot went into the gyle a customer is asking about.

Who it is for

Microbreweries, nano and cuckoo brewers, and anyone brewing to sell rather than for the kitchen table.

How to use it

  1. Write the gyle number and recipe version at the top before weighing anything.
  2. List every ingredient with its supplier and lot as it goes in — including salts and finings.
  3. Fill in your own mash, boil and gravity figures as you take them.
  4. Record the yeast strain and generation, and the volume that went to the fermenter.
  5. Use the readings table for whatever you measure through the day, when you measure it.

What is on the sheet

2 pages, in this order:

Page 1

Printed under the title: One brew, start to finish: what went into the mash and the copper with its supplier and lot, what the readings were at each stage, what yeast was pitched and what volume went to the fermenter.

Write-on lines: Beer · Gyle / batch no. · Brew date · Brewer · Recipe version

Grist, hops and additions — one line each, with the lot so it can be traced back

Table, 8 rows: Ingredient · Supplier · Lot no. · Weight · Stage · Point added

Water, mash and boil — your figures for this brew

Write-on lines: Liquor volume · Treatment · Mash in · Mash temp · Run-off started · Sparge finished · Pre-boil volume · Pre-boil gravity · Boil start · Boil end · Post-boil volume · Original gravity

Yeast and fermenter

Write-on lines: Strain · Source / generation · Pitched at (temp) · Volume to FV · FV no.

Readings through the day — whatever you take, when you take it

Table, 12 rows: Time · Stage · Temp · Gravity · pH · Volume · Initials · Notes

Ruled lines: Notes — anything different about this brew, problems, what to change next time

Questions

Why are there no mash temperatures or boil lengths printed?

Because they are the recipe, and the recipe is yours. The sheet gives you the blanks so that what you actually did on this brew is recorded next to what you used — which is what you need when the next batch tastes different.

How does this differ from the home brewing batch record?

That sheet follows one batch through fermentation to bottling for a hobbyist. This one is the brew day only, with supplier lots on every ingredient because a commercial brewer has to trace them.
