At any rate, I got this extract kit to celebrate Men's Health Month, grew out my mustache, and part of the money I paid for the kit was donated for men's health research...Will try to get this on started in a couple of days. Cheers!

Notes: Add ~1 # DME to brew pot water to lower pH to ~5-6.

Add grits in muslin bags and grains in separate muslin bags to 2.5 gallons spring water and bring to 150 deg., start 60 minute steep.

Remove steeping grains at 30 minutes, steep grits for additional 30 minutes.

Remove grits and bring to boil. Boil for 60 minutes total, performing hop, whirl floc and nutrient additions when necessary.

Add remaining DME and turbinado when 10 minutes left to boil.

Cool to 85 deg, combine with room temp (72 deg) water to achieve ~75 deg wort, check and adjust original gravity and pitch yeast.

Ferment at 65-70 deg.

Notes: OG: 1.042 due to over dilution of wort when filling primary fermenter. This ended up giving the beer a thin, watered down taste and mouth feel.

Notes: EDIT 2/20/07: Please do not PM me with questions on this recipe. Post them to this thread. I get way too many questions that are already answered within this long thread, so consider reading the entire thing (or using the Search function) prior to posting.

Here's the final recipe that I'm brewing RIGHT NOW.

Malts
3 pounds extra light DME
3 pounds light wheat DME
1 pound Caramel 60L (steeped for 45 minutes at 150'-165')

Hops
1oz Cascade for bittering (60 minutes)
.5oz Saaz for flavor (20 minutes)
.5 oz Tettnang for aroma (end of boil)

Yeast
Wyeast German Ale

Extras
1 tsp Irish Moss (10 minutes)
4oz Lactose @ 15 minutes
2 oz real vanilla extract

Priming
>1cup Lactose
4oz vanilla (Be careful! This may be too much vanilla for some people.)
1.5 cups light DME

I'm adding the Lactose in the last 15 minutes of the boil. I'll add the vanilla in the primary, because I don't want to risk losing any that bonds to the trub. So far, it smells fantastic but I'm still at the bittering hops boil. I think this should end up with a nice caramel flavor and a good hint (perhaps a suggestion size amount) of vanilla. I've had vanillas with way too much flavor and they tasted too much like candy. This should have a decent balance.

Notes: 11/4/05

So good. Can't even explain it - you simply must make this beer. I let it prime for almost 2 weeks before fridging it, then cracked one tonight after only about 30 hours. Great head, good lace, nice color, good body and nose. Pictures won't do it justice, but here's one anyways
