Directions:
|
Make any water
adjustments first. It is best to boil as much (up
to 5 gallons) as your brew-pot will hold. Be careful
not to overfill or cover your brew-pot when boiling,
this will cause a boil over.
The use of a grain
bag is highly recommended. Place grains in grain
bag, and put into 160 degree water. Cover, turn
fire off, let steep for 30 min. Remove grain bag
and bring water to a boil. Turn off the heat (to
prevent scorching), and mix in the malt extracts
and any other adjuncts. When fully dissolved, turn
the heat back on and return the wort to a rolling
boil. Add the bittering hops, continue to boil for
50 min. Add the flavoring hops, continue to boil
for 5 min. Add the finishing hops and continue to
boil for 5 more min. The use of hop socks make the
addition and removal of hops much easier.
After you have
boiled your wort for a full 60 min, remove all hops
and add water to reach 5 gallons. Cool to 75 degrees
and add yeast nutrient and yeast. Shake your fermenter
vigorously for 5 min. to aerate the wort. Remember,
your yeast needs oxygen to live and grow. Attach
the blow-off hose to the fermenter and place the
other end into a container of water to form an air-lock.
Rack into secondary fermenter after krueson has
begun to subside.
