Notes

Adjusted Grain bill 26 NOV 2020 to compensate for my high efficiency

Directions:
Note: This recipe is for a 6.5 gallon batch, with 5 gallons intended to remain after hop loss. To make this Pliny the Elder clone, protein rest 122 for 30 minutes, mash grains at 151-152°F (66-67°C) for an hour or until starch conversion is complete. Mash out at 170°F (77°C) and sparge. Collect 8 gallons (30 L) of runoff, stir in dextrose and bring to a boil. Add hops as indicated in the recipe. After a 90 minute boil, chill wort to 67°F (19°C) and transfer to a fermenter. Pitch two packages of yeast or a yeast starter and aerate well. Ferment at 67°F (19°C) until fermentation activity subsides, then rack to secondary. Add first set of dry hops on top of the racked beer and age 7-9 days, then add the second set. Age five more days then bottle or keg.
