Notes: "Greg's Classic Stout"
Surprisingly, a classic stout! If you like dark beer but shy away from the tanginess of Guiness, this brew is sure to peak your interest.
Don't use jet black roasted barley. Look for a deep dark brown colour roasted barley. Black or chocolate malt is no substitute when making a "classic" stout. Steep at 65-71C for 30 minutes then remove with a strainer.
Add gypsum for 60min boil (or don't add it).
Use English hops (such as Northern Brewer, Goldings, Fuggles)
Use Irish Ale type yeast (or English ale if you must). Aerate wort very well.
Enjoy within 3-4 weeks from brew day.
Consider swapping out some dark malt extract for additional head retention malt.
Neo at Homebrew Co-op suggested that I don't use all dark malt extract. He said it will be harder to ferment as compared to light malt extract. So for the first time I used light malt extract for most, plus some dark and some dark specialty grains.
I also added Motueka hops for bittering so I could use some of the EKG for flavour. |

Notes: 5 gallons/19 L, extract with grains)
OG = 1.050 FG = 1.012
IBU = 26 SRM = 14 ABV = 5%
Mill or coarsely crack the specialty malt and place loosely in a grain bag. Avoid packing the grains too tightly in the bag, using more bags if needed. Steep the bag in about 1 gallon (~4 L) of water at roughly 170 °F (77 °C) for about 30 minutes.
Lift the grain bag out of the steeping liquid and rinse with warm water. Allow the bags to drip into the kettle for a few minutes while you add the malt extract. Do not squeeze the bags. Add enough water to the steeping liquor and malt extract to make a pre-boil volume of 5.9 gallons (22.3 L) and a gravity of 1.043 (10.6 °P). Stir the wort thoroughly to help dissolve the extract and bring to a boil.
Once the wort is boiling, add the bittering hops. The total wort boil time is 60 minutes after adding the bittering hops. With 15 minutes left add the Irish moss or other kettle finings and at five minutes left add the last hop addition. Chill the wort to 68 °F (20 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is 9 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast or two packages of liquid yeast.
Ferment around 68 °F (20 °C) until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in a week or less. Allow the lees to settle and the brew to mature without pressure for another two days after fermentation appears finished.
Toast the coconut at 325 °F for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway. Add in a grain bag 2-3 days into fermentation. Add cocoa powder at this point as well.
Rack to a keg and force carbonate or rack to a bottling bucket, add priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 1 to 2 volumes depending on your packaging. Serve the finished beer at 50 to 55 °F (10 to 13 °C). |
