Notes
STEP BY STEP
Mill the grains, then mix with 24.4 quarts (23.1 L) of 167 °F (75 °C) strike water to reach a mash
temperature of ١٥4 °F (68 °C).
Hold this temperature for 60 minutes. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear, and sparge the grains
with enough water to obtain 6.5 gallons (24.6 L) of wort.
Remove kettle from heat and stir in Belgian candi syrup until dissolved. Boil for 60 minutes, adding
hops according to the ingredient list and Irish moss if desired.
After the boil, chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). Aerate
the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air and pitch yeast.
Ferment at 66 °F (19 °C), for the first two days, then free rise to 70 °F (21 °C) and hold there until
the completion of primary fermentation.
Once the beer completes fermentation, reduce temperature to 32 °F (0 °C), then bottle or keg the
beer and carbonate to approximately 2.4 volumes.
