Notes: "Greg's Classic Stout"

*Didn't have enough hops so boiled for 30 mins with only 1.5kg malt extract, then another 60mins with the rest. This will bring it up to 60 IBU.

Surprisingly, a classic stout! If you like dark beer but shy away from the tanginess of Guiness, this brew is sure to peak your interest.

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 grains at 66-70 for 45 mins. Not expecting much conversion... it's mainly for body, flavour, freshness, colour and head retention.

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.

Notes: MASHEXTRACT RECIPE AND PROCEDURE FOR PAUWEL KWAK
6 Ibs. (2.7 kg.) English amber dried malt extract
1½ Ibs. (0.7 kg.) French Pilsener malt or other Pilsener malt
3½ Ibs. (1.6 kg.) Belgian Munich malt-7 Lovibond (15 EBC)
5 Ibs. (2.3 kg.) Total grains
4 HBU (113 MBU) English Challenger hops (pellets)-60 minutes
(bittering)
2.5 HBU (71 MBU) European Styrian Goldings hops (pellets)-15 minutes
(flavor/aroma)
1 HBU Czech Saaz hops (pellets)-15 minutes (flavor/aroma)
¼ tsp. Irish moss
¾ c. corn sugar for priming in bottles. Use ⅓ cup corn sugar if priming
a keg.
Wyeast 1214 Belgian Ale yeast suggested; it is high-gravity- and esterproducing.
A step infusion mash is employed to mash the grains. Add 5 quarts (4.8 1.)
of 140-degree F (60 C) water to the crushed grain, stir, stabilize and hold the
temperature at 133 degrees F (56 C) for 30 minutes. Add 2.5 quarts (2.4 1.) of
boiling water. Add heat to bring temperature up to 150 degrees F (65.5 C). Hold
for about 60 minutes.
After conversion, raise temperature to 167 degrees F (75 C), lauter and
sparge with 2 gallons (7.6 1.) of 170-degree F (77 C) water. Collect about 3
gallons (11.5 1.) of runoff. Add malt extract and bittering hops and bring to a full
and vigorous boil.
The total boil time will be 60 minutes. When 15 minutes remain, add flavor
hops and Irish moss. After a total wort boil of 60 minutes, turn off the heat, then
separate or strain out and sparge hops, and direct the hot wort into a sanitized
fermenter to which 2 gallons (7.6 1.) of cold water have been added. If
necessary, add additional cold water to achieve a 5-gallon (19-1.) batch size.
Chill the wort to 70 degrees F (21 C). Aerate the cooled wort well. Add an active
yeast culture and ferment for 4 to 6 days in the primary. Then transfer into a
secondary fermenter and age for one month, preferably at about 70 degrees F (21
C).
When secondary aging is complete, prime with sugar, bottle or keg. Let
condition at temperatures above 60 degrees F (15.5 C) until clear and
carbonated.

Notes:

I have had great results using Abbey strains with this in combination with a few different bretts and blends. The bretts that work best in this base would be the "funk" driven yeasts such as Omega Bring on the Funk, Bootleg Biology Funk Weapon #1, Wyeast Brett Brux, Wyeast Brett L, and a long aged BSI Drie. Co-pitching with lacto brevis will give you a firm acidity (not overly sour) in 4-6 months.

I'm planning on brewing this up again soon with some ester heavy british strains.

So far all of my batches with this have been without fruit, but darker fruits such as cherries (1.5 lb per gallon) and even raspberries (2 lb per gallon) would pair up quite well with it This base is great for a quick afternoon brew with a fair amount of malt character in the finished product.

This version turned out fantastic. Oloroso Sherry, Oak, Tart and Sweet Cherries, and Tart Cherry Juice have really rounded this beer out. The ph at bottling was 3.55.

Notes: Winters in the islands. Tropical breezes, palm trees, sand in your bathing suit. Nothing that a cool, refreshing adult beverage can't handle. So relax and chill, mon.

2 yeast packs, one as starter, stir or shake regularly to reach desired yeast count.

Notes: Slight modifications from the book's recipe to accomodate my LHBS - using 1/2 as much regular chocolate malt since no pale chocolate available, will use US Goldings (from Yakima) instead of Kent Goldings. Also adjusting to 2.5 boil size (with 4.5 lbs of LME as late addition).
