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.
