Did you stew up 1/2 Litre of Ginger Solution or stick enough fresh Ginger through a juicer to generate 500ml of juice? I've got a nice compression-screw juicer which I was thinking of using for Apple Cider till I worked out the cost of the apples... had hoped to buy juice in the Blueys last season but the fires put paid to that.

That Ginger Nut Stout is gunna be LEGENDARY!!! Wow. Beeeyooooodiful. Have been thinking meself about a "Christmas Spices Stout" with classic German biscuit Christmas Spices/Gluewein spices: Cinnamon - Cloves - Nutmeg... Was wondering tho how many cloves for a 19L brew... as Cloves can be fairly feisty.... was wondering whether you might have any experience/suggestions?

ben 10 Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 I'd google pumpkin beer, the spice mix for that should suit, or Julebryg (there is one here somewhere) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon a maybe 7-dozen cloves in 19L cannot be too much. Anyone any other ideas? Just brewed AG Christmas Belgian Dubbel. Looked up a lot of info and recipes for various spiced ales cuz I’d never used these types of spices before. Paid attention to a lot of posts (like above) saying 5 cloves is overpowering, not too much nutmeg (most recommend 1/4-1/2 tsp/5gal). I used 4 whole cloves (cracked), 1/2 tsp fresh ground nutmeg, zest from 4 oranges, 3 5” cinnamon sticks 5 cardamom pods(cracked) and 50g fresh ground ginger at 5 min boil and just finished fermentation... I cannot taste or smell ANY spices in the sample I took for FG! What the heck?! Tastes like a good, but regular, Belgian dubbel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzza Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Goog's Encyclo of Beer.... suspect @Ben 10 Benny your splendid 500ml of fresh home grown beautiful Ginger juice does not adhere.... nor would my suggested dozen cloves in 19L either.... will continue the search...

As a side note, I have a little plan conjured up to make something hopefully resembling a "Turkish Delight" Porter or Stout down the track. Cheers, Lusty. Hey Lusty, I was just thinking of the same again the other night. Did you ever do it? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still in the pipeline. One of the hops I used in that brew is not regularly available & not well known at all these days, so is hard to source. When I stumbled upon this combo purely by accident it was in a light malted brew, so would probably need some tweaks in a darker beer like a stout to display as prominently, & to be honest, simply may not work in a beer like that. My gut feeling says it will though, so I will try it at some point. The combination of hops was a freak chance, & not something I will be disclosing openly if in fact I can adapt them to the same effect in a stout. Cheers & good brewing, Lusty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Miller Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 @WaynealfordHow does that Luchador Spiced Chocolate Stout taste? Did it meet your expectations? I've never had chili in beer, but I like the idea of this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynealford Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 It was excellent. Not too overpowering, just the right amount of warmth. I don't normally like stout, but I will be making this again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
