Mashing
1. Prepare the Mash
In a large pot, heat 3 gallons of filtered water to 165°F (73°C). Add the Pale Malt, Crystal Malt, and Roasted Barley to the pot.
2. Mash Rest
Allow the grains to steep in the water for 60 minutes, maintaining a temperature of around 150-155°F (65-68°C). Stir occasionally.
3. Drain the Wort
After the mash rest, drain the liquid (wort) from the grains into a separate vessel.
4. Sparging
Rinse the grains with an additional 2 gallons of hot water (170°F or 77°C) to extract more sugars. Collect this liquid with the wort.
Boiling
5. Bring to Boil
Bring the collected wort to a boil in a large kettle.
6. Add Hops
Once boiling, add the East Kent Goldings hops. Boil for 60 minutes.
7. Finish with Fuggle Hops
In the last 15 minutes of the boil, add the Fuggle hops.
Cooling and Fermentation
8. Cool the Wort
After boiling, cool the wort quickly using a wort chiller or an ice bath until it reaches 70°F (21°C).
9. Pitch Yeast
Transfer the cooled wort to a sanitized fermentation vessel and sprinkle the Scotch Ale yeast over the top.
10. Fermentation
Seal the fermentation vessel and let it ferment for about 2 weeks at room temperature (around 68-72°F or 20-22°C).
Bottling
11. Prepare Bottles
Sanitize your bottles and caps. Dissolve the priming sugar in a small amount of boiling water and let cool.
12. Bottle the Ale
Add the cooled priming sugar solution to the fermentation vessel and gently stir. Bottle the ale, leaving some headspace in each bottle.
13. Cap and Age
Cap the bottles and store them in a dark, cool place for about 2 weeks to carbonate.
14. Chill and Enjoy
After carbonation, chill the bottles in the refrigerator, pour into a glass, and enjoy your 90 Shilling Scottish Ale!
