Source Notes:
September 2019, Vol. 25, No. 4 page 57. This recipe is a homebrew version using multiple grains to mimic the sugar flavors. It can be scaled up or down for a 60/- or 80/-. Just remember to color it a bit darker if making it as a 60/-.
Notes:
Use 6.5 gallons of water in the brew kettle; heat to 158 F. Steep the malts for 30 minutes. Remove and rinse. Turn off the heat. Add the malt extract and stir thoroughly to dissolve completely. You do not want to feel liquid extract at the bottom of the kettle when stirring with your spoon. Turn the heat back on and bring to a boil. Boil the wort for 60 minutes, adding hops at the times indicated in the recipe. Chill the wort to 59 F, pitch the yeast, and ferment until complete. Rack the beer, prime and bottle condition, or keg and force carbonate.
