  Steps:
  1.) Heat 9.5 gallons of water to 154°F (mash temp).

  3.) After the mash, drain excess wort then bring to a boil.
  
  4.) Once boiling, add 1oz Zamba hops and start a 60 min timer.
  
  5.) With 50 mins left in the boil, add 1 lb lactose powder.
  
  6.) With 15 mins left in the boil, add 1 lb Brewer's Crystals (slowly add these as to not scorch your machine).
  
  7.) With 10 mins left in the boil, add 2 tbsp vanilla extract.
  
  8.) After 60 min boil completes, chill to 180°F and add whirlpool hops. Whirlpool for 20 minutes.
  
  9.) Chill the wort to 70-75°F and pitch yeast (be sure to use 2 packs of WLP066 or WLP067 since it is higher alcohol).
  
  10.) After 2 days in the fermenter, add the 2 day dry hops.
  
  11.) After another 5 days (7 days total), add the 7 day dry hops and 3x vanilla beans (cut beans open for maximal flavor).
  
  12.) After another 7 days (2 weeks total), you can keg it up & enjoy!
