Notes

(1) Start preparing hot water ... immerse liquid malt packs in some hot water for 20-30 minutes so they will flow and dissolve easily.

(2) Steep specialty grains in several liters of very hot water, then strain liquid into boil kettle, and rinse grains with a couple more liters of hot water.

(3) Add more hot water to kettle to about 14 liters. Keep applying heat until liquid is about 70 degrees. Then add contents of liquid malt pouches, rinsing them to dissolve all malt inside.

(4) Top up boil kettle to 20 liters total and bring to boil.

(5) As soon as boil commences, add 60 minute hops and then start timing.

(6) Add later hop additions and yeast nutrient and Whirlfloc at appropriate times.

(7) Chill and transfer to fermenter. Sparge hops. Top up fermenter to 21 liters. (a tad over 5.5 gal)

(8) Don't be too concerned about the temperature. Just get it to 25-30 degrees. Then into the fermenter. Then place fermenter in temperature cabinet set at say 16 degrees. leave for 24 hours and then pitch yeast and re-set tem controller to 19 degrees.
