Malt and Hops
Method
Brewing Process
- 1
Mashing
In a large brew kettle, heat 3 gallons of water to 165°F (74°C). Add pale malt, crystal malt, Munich malt, and chocolate malt. Stir well and maintain temperature at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes.
- 2
Sparging
After mashing, sparge the grains with enough water to collect about 6 gallons of wort in the kettle.
- 3
Boiling
Bring the wort to a boil. Once boiling, add the bittering hops and boil for 60 minutes. Add the flavoring hops with 15 minutes left in the boil and aroma hops right before turning off the heat.
- 4
Cooling
Cool the wort quickly using a wort chiller or an ice bath until it reaches 70°F (21°C).
- 5
Fermentation
Transfer the cooled wort to a sanitized fermenter, pitch the yeast, and seal with an airlock. Ferment at 65-70°F (18-21°C) for 2 weeks.
- 6
Bottling
After fermentation is complete, transfer the beer to a bottling bucket, add priming sugar, and fill bottles. Cap the bottles and allow them to carbonate for 2 weeks at room temperature.
