Notes

After 60 minute mash, take the first 2.5 gallons of first runnings (after clearing) and boil on max heat for 30 minutes, to create caramel character. After 30 mins, run rest of first runnings (I use a batch sparge rig) into boil kettle, then sparge regularly. Add LME to boil kettle once sparge is complete.

Do a 90 minute standard boil with hops as above. Once chilled, pitch HUGE starter (2L for a 5gal batch). Ferment at 69F.

After 8 days in fermenter, add 2oz of Ancho and Guajillo chili seeds soaked in 4oz of Laprhoig Scotch Whiskey. Keg after 3.5 weeks.
