Notes: The ABV for this is inflated as it assumes the dark grains labelled as 'late additions' listed will be incorporated into the hot mash. The ABV is actually ~7%.
Using a multi-stage mash method. You could also do a single infusion mash of 20 quarts / 4 gallons at 160 F. Sparge with 3.5 gallons of 170 F.
"Cold steep" the dark grains separately and add to the fermenter when brewing is complete. From the research I've done, to cold steep grains, use a ratio of 2 quarts per pound of room temperature water and let them steep for about 2 hours. The water should be boiled then cooled before steeping the grains and the runoff should also be pasteurized ("boil" it at 170) for a 5 - 10 minutes, then cooled again before adding to the beer in the fermenter. This will help prevent any infections.
Alternatively you can add it to the last 5 minutes of the boil as well, but this may produce some harshness.
For the yeast starter, make a small wort with an OG ~1.036 with 1.25 quart/ .5 cups of DME. It's better to start with more water because you can always boil off some. Too high of a gravity will stress the yeast into actually fermenting whereas a lower gravity wort will give them nutrients to grow, but not focus on fermenting.

Ferment at 64 then let naturally rise into mid to high 70's to finish.
Total water needed is 20 gallons. Mash strike temp is 9 gallons at 172. Sparge at 170 with the other 11 gallons Use Herms to keep mash range at 157 for 75 min.

Notes: This is a multi-step mash. Mill the grains, then mix with 2 gallons (7.6 L) of 154 °F (72 °C) strike water to reach a mash temperature of 144 °F (66 °C). Hold this temperature for 30 minutes. Raise the mash temperature through infusion of boiling water or recirculating system up to 158 °F (70°C). Hold this temperature for 30 minutes.
Due to the very low enzymatic power of this mash, it is recommended to perform an iodine test to confirm starch conversion before beginning to lauter. If iodine test confirms conversion, then you can raise the mash up to mash out at 172 °F (78 °C). If iodine test is negative, continue to hold at 158 °F (70 °C) until iodine test is clear. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear, then begin sparge. Sparge about 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water then top off your kettle to 6.5 gallons (24.6 L).
Boil for 90 minutes, adding hops according to the ingredient list. After the boil, whirlpool for 5 minutes, then let settle for 5 minutes. Chill the wort to about 65 °F (18 °C) and then pitch yeast and aerate wort.
Once fermentation commences, allow beer to free rise up to 70 °F (21 °C). You can hold this temperature for ten days or until the completion of primary fermentation, whichever is later. Bottle or keg the beer and carbonate to approximately 2.3 volumes.
