Notes

Traditionally brewed with triple decoction mash.

Bake pumpkin for 1 hour at 325F. Cool and add to mash.

Use spare 7.5gal kettle and small burner to perform decoction to prevent scorching.

Add pumpkin spice at flameout.

Ferment for 10 days -- Add vanilla on day 3 or when fermentation slows.

Force carbonate to 3.5 vols co2 via keg and regulator.
