Notes

Trim & discard bark from ginger root, chop into small pieces, pressure cook in a couple cups water for 2 minutes, and slow cook on low for a couple hours. Strain & pitch the extract into primary fermentor when cool and add cooled wort.

It's VERY gingery! If you want it more subtle, you could easily back off on the ginger.
