Notes: Using a 9L keg: Heat keg up with a boiling starsan water mix and drain. Add 1kg of either Dry spray malt extract or 1.1L of heated liquid malt extract (hot as you can get it). Add 1L of hot fresh boiling water to DSME or 2L of hot fresh boiling water to Liquid malt. Add hops, sugar and water treatment, yeast nutrient. Shake to mix. Let stand at near boiling temp for 5 mins. Longer if you want more bitterness. Top up water to 8L. Oxygenate. Allow to cool to fermenting temp. Add yeast. Seal keg. Shake, add spunding valve. Ferment as required.
You could add the hops to the boiling water prior to adding.
Ive used bottled water in this recipe.
Keg will need floating dip tube to OUT post.
ACTUAL METHOD USED.
Due to the dip tube rattling inside the keg I mixed and boiled the bottled water and malt extract in a sauce pan. First hops in the boil for 8 mins. Second hop in the keg prior to sealing at 15c. You could dry hop day 2 or 3 for biotransformation, whatever that is!!. Im nit very hopping so will go to 20psi.
Ferment, cold crash and serve from the keg as above.
7L of Carrick Glen Mineral water used.
Brewed on 20/09/22: Cooled overnight before adding final hops and yeast. Day 15 appeared to have finished fermenting. Crash cooled on 07/10/22 Day 17.
By 13/10/22 it had cleared on its own without any finings or getting, Day 23.
Excellent head, slight yellow colour. Distinctive strong Lime Aroma with Lime and sherbet type aroma. A bit sweet, slight toffee and sherbet flavour. A very nice beer for such minimum effort. Certainly will repeat.
Ive since done a shake and Brew IPA in 19L keg. Turned out 6.43% and had a very strong flavour with a slight, alcohol flavour. |

Notes: First go at this is very rough: Using a 1.8 lb can of Mr Beer Cerveza HME as the extract. Actual IBUs will be slightly higher, no way to account for extract being hopped, but should be just enough to tip scales over into lower American IPA range.
Cane Sugar represents 4L of Mountain Dew (which has 518g of sugar), mostly decarbonated. Inspired by forum.northernbrewer.com/viewtopic.php?t=50805, hopping adjusted to fit 1) my available hops on hand and 2) still producing an IPA appropriate IBU despite my smaller boil size and different hops used.
Base recipe was all grain, added 8 oz of 60L American Munich to get SRM without using an absurd amount of steeping grains.
Goal was to find a good use for these spare ingredients on hand and still stay close to the |

Notes: Steep grains in 3 qt tap H2O. at 160/150 (actually ran temp up to 170 on accident according to thermometer, though this candy thermo appears to register 10F high).
Boil size app 2.25 gallons, ought to be 2.4 per recipe (need bigger kettle), added DME near boiling point. Accidentally tossed in some of the flavoring hops at 60 minutes, not off to the best start.
Added flavoring hops and Irish moss and extract at 15 minutes.
Aroma hops as the pot was put into iced sink. Pitched the malt "tea" directly into the primary, did not add to boil as suggested in recipe - would probably have overflowed.
Pitched yeast at about 78F, put in Anny's room.
OG 1.044
Removed from Anny's room following day, put next to wall heater, maintained about 70F, rotating bucket. Kept in primary 4 days, racked to secondary, moved to tool room, app 65F.
Dry hopped in a cheesecloth dangling from the airlock, for two days, removed sack.
Bottled on April 24. Wort is amazing. Unfortunately, only 4.5 gallons, or 26 bottles.

Notes: "Greg's Classic Stout"
The only thing "classic" about this stout is that it's brewed the way Greg likes it! Nice and dry, but more hopped up and more alcoholic!
This is the first time I brewed with my new 21L pot, and I accidentally added too much water to the initial boil. I had to spend an extra 28 minutes boiling to get my volume down to fit the fermenter which resulted in an extra IBU kick. To preserve the flavour, I added the leftover hops for a 10min flavour infusion as the recipe initially intended.
Don't use jet black roasted barley. Look for a deep dark brown colour roasted barley. Black or chocolate malt is no substitute when making a "classic" stout. Steep at 65-71C for 30 minutes then remove with a strainer.
Add gypsum for 60min boil (or don't add it).
Use English hops (such as Northern Brewer, Goldings, Fuggles)
Use Irish Ale type yeast (or English ale if you must). Aerate wort very well.
Enjoy within 3-4 weeks from brew day.
Consider swapping out some dark malt extract for additional head retention malt. |
