Source:: Brew Your Own
Source Notes:: July-August 2019, Vol. 25, No. 4 page 50.
Notes:: Be sure to make an appropriate-sized yeast starter a day or two prior to brew day if using liquid yeast. If using dried yeast, you may opt to pitch two sachets of yeast. Place the crushed grains in a large mesh bag and submerge in 6 gallons of water. Heat the water and when the temperature hits 170 F, remove the grains allowing the liquid from the bag to drip back into the kettle. Remove from heat and stir in the dried malt extract. When all the extract has dissolved, bring the wort up to a boil for 60 minutes, adding hops as indicated. Add rice extract, whirfloc, and lactose directly to the boil with 15 minutes left. After the boil is complete, cool to 70 F to pitch yeast, then ferment at 68 F for two weeks. Rack the beer into a secondary vessel with the dry hops. Allow 3 -7 days contact then bottle or keg as usual.
