Notes

DIRECTIONS
Mill the grains and mash at 154°F (68°C) for 1 hour. Raise the temperature to 168°F (76°C) and mash out. Lauter and sparge as necessary to obtain about 6.5 gallons (25 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule. Chill to 68°F (20°C), aerate well, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at about 70°F (21°C) until complete, then crash, carbonate, and package.

BREWER’S NOTES
From Weathered Souls: “This recipe was developed to highlight the different hues and shades of black. Our recipe is only a guideline, and please feel free to adjust as needed based on your system needs. Everyone knows their water profiles best, so we also leave that up to you. In Texas, we have very hard water, so we personally use RO and add calcium chloride and calcium sulfate to adjust PPM. … We also add a small amount of maltodextrin but will leave that up to how you want the viscosity and mouthfeel of your beer.”
