WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Steep your grains in water and heat water to 170° F for at least 20-30 minutes (the longer they steep, the more flavor you’ll get – to a point).
Remove the grains and add your malt extract.
Stir well, dissolving all clumps.
Heat to boiling and then add all of the hops.
Boil 60 minutes and turn off heat.
Cool as quickly as possible to 70° F.
Rack to your fermenter and pitch yeast.
After 7-10 days, rack to secondary fermenter on top of two prepared Grade B Vanilla Beans.

To Prepare:

Slice the vanilla beans lengthwise and open them up.<br />
Scrape the tar-like interior of the vanilla bean out of the husk and put it and the husk into the bottom of the secondary fermenter.<br />


After 14 days, prime and bottle or keg.
