BIAB; Single infusion rest at 150 F for 60-75 min. Remove bag, squeeze, then dunk sparge into 1.475 gal water at 170 in 3 gal kettle. Rest for 10 min, then remove bag, squeeze, then add these second runnings back to first runnings in 5 gal kettle and fire up to a 120 minute boil. Add hops as noted (can sub any noble hops for the Nobility). Remove some wort into small saucepan and dissolve molasses in it, then add back into boil around 10 minute mark. If your gravity is lower than expected, can add either more molasses, or DME or table sugar.
After about 0.47 gal absorption to grain, should have preboil volume of 4.0 gal; after 0.6 gal boil-off rate for 2 hrs, should have 2.8 gal into fermentor. After about 0.05 gal absorption to hops, and 0.25 gal to trub, should have 2.5 gal final beer to keg or bottle (use fresh yeast if bottling for high abv and age after lagering).
Ferment at 50 F for two weeks, then slowly raise to 60 for a Diacetyl rest for another week or two. Lager for 2-4 months, and age this one to get better in 8-12 months.
