Ingredients for Black Butte Non-Alcoholic Porter

Method

Brewing Instructions

1

Prepare the Mash

In a large pot, heat 3 cups of water to approximately 160°F (71°C). Add the malted barley and chocolate malt, stirring gently. Maintain the temperature at 150°F (65°C) for 30 minutes to allow the sugars to extract.

2

Boil the Wort

After the mash period, strain the liquid (wort) into another pot, discarding the grains. Bring the wort to a boil and add the hops. Boil for 60 minutes.

3

Cool the Wort

Once the boiling is complete, cool the wort rapidly using an immersion chiller or an ice bath until it reaches room temperature.

4

Fermentation

Transfer the cooled wort to a fermentation vessel. Add the non-alcoholic yeast and corn sugar. Seal the vessel with an airlock and let it ferment at room temperature for 5-7 days.

5

Bottle and Condition

After fermentation, transfer the beer to clean bottles, adding caramel flavoring if desired. Cap the bottles and let them condition at room temperature for 2-3 days to develop carbonation.

6

Refrigerate and Enjoy

Once conditioned, refrigerate the bottles. Serve chilled and enjoy your homemade Black Butte Non-Alcoholic Porter!
