Notes

2 packets of yeast is 0.58 pitch rate.

Bring strike water (8qts) to 159 in pot on the stove, once at 159 remove from heat (should drop to about 149F with grains). Add grains in bag to pot at stir well, leave for 1 hour. If you want a dry stout remove the grains after 0.5 hours and stir in your malt extract, do not apply heat let is rest for 1.5 more hours. This will allow the beta to break down the complex sugars in the extract.

In a separate pot heat sparge water (8qts) to 180F.

Pull grain bag out of kettle and set in colander on top of pot.

Once grain is out reapply heat. Sparge grain until no sparge water remains or the kettle is filled to the desired level.

Bring to a boil and continue as usual.
