Notes

Step 1. Add 3 quarts of water to a 6 to 8 quart sauce pan and heat to 165-170° and stir in grains. Steep for 30-45 minutes in a warm oven. Then pour grain mixture through a strainer into your boiling kettle. Rinse (sparge) grains with 2 quarts of 160-170° water into boiling kettle.

Step 2. Meanwhile, add 2.5 gallons of water to boiling kettle and bring to a boil. When the water is boiling, remove from heat; add malt extract and MIX WELL. Return kettle to heat and bring to a boil. Add boiling hops and boil for one hour. Add finishing hops at the last 5 minutes.

Step 3. When your hour boil is done, turn off the heat and place boiling kettle in a bath of ice water. Sanitize a stainless steel spoon and remove the lid and stir wort every five minutes or so to evaporate heat. Leave the spoon in the wort with lid ajar while doing this. After thirty minutes pour wort through a strainer to strain out hops into fermenter; add enough cold water to yield five gallons. When the temperature is below 80°, AERATE the wort by vigorously stirring to incorporate as much air as possible. Add yeast per package instructions. Ferment between 65-70°.
