Notes: OK - I have a Brewer's Best Robust Porter kit - I like hacking these. So, this time, I took 3 pounds of Maris Otter malt and I smoked it for 3-4 hours in a blend of Apple, Pecan and Hickory wood that was soaked in Fireball to try for a hint of cinnamon. Why 3 pounds? Everything I read said go big or go home.
Maybe it'll be savory...or maybe it'll be an ashtray. I'm hoping for a big, bold, smoky porter - hopefully with hints of apples or even apple pie.
I'm still debating yeasts. I raised up the biscuit malt to help with the diastatic power - It was 26/30...I know why you need DP, but I'm not so sure how much it matters in this context - this is a "dump and stir" beer kit...I'm complicating it with the smoky stuff, but I'd welcome additional gravity points. I want the end product to not be bitter with smoke, so I am trying to offset that with a more complex malt bill...much of which was already preground and in the kit and intended to steep 20 minutes...which I will now do a full mash step. I keep pushing it into Baltic porter land. |

Notes: 2l Starter: 7.2oz light/extra light DME.
Mash-in: 7 quarts of treated distilled water. Treat three gallons water used for boil with 2/3tsp calcium chloride. and take the 7 quarts out of that. Once mash is finished put another 1/3tsp calcium chloride in the boil. Heat to 163-164 degrees for strike temp. Mash-in and use oven on low to maintain temp of ~152 for 1 hr.
Mash-out: Return pot to stovetop and apply moderate heat until a temp of 168 is achieved. Separate grain from wort and run the rest of your water (at 170 degrees) over your grains. Begin boil.
Peanuts: (26oz) Buy unroasted peanuts, break them up a little in a ziplock bag, and roast in 325 degree oven for 20 minutes on parchment paper. Pat excess oils off with paper towel once finished. Add right before primary fermentation ends as active yeast can reduce some residual oil in nuts. Let sit for ~2-4 weeks and bottle/keg.
Priming: 3.3 oz corn sugar. |
