INSTRUCTIONS
Mash grains in 1-2 gallons of water. Sparge with enough water to end
with 2-3 gallons in pot. Bring to boil. Stir in extract and bring to
boil. Add boiling hops. Boil 40 minutes. Add Irish moss in last 15 min-
utes. At end of boil, add aromatic hops and steep 15 minutes. Sparge
into primary with enough water to make 6 gallons. Cool and pitch yeast.
Rack to secondary when initial blow off subsides. Prime and bottle about a
month later. This brew is so dark I think the Irish moss may be
superfluous. This was the most active brew I've had in a while. Expect to
use some sort of blow off method for primary and then rack to secondary
with an airlock. Very black! Thick, but not as much as Guinness. Well
rounded flavor and smooth with almost no bite. Very dark head. Maybe using
less roast bar- ley and a bit more black patent would lighten the head and
keep the body from suffering. Everybody who tasted it really like it. I do
believe I've found my house stout. Original Gravity: 1.058 Final Gravity:
