Method:

  1. Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 3 Litres of water to 1 Kg of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 67 °C (152 °F).
  2. Hold the mash at 67 °C (152 °F) until enzymatic conversion is complete.
  3. Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 76 °C (168 °F).
  4. Mash out for 10 minutes.
  5. Fly Sparge slowly with 12 Litres of 77 °C (170 °F) water, collecting wort until the; pre-boil kettle volume is around 26.0 L.
  6. The total boil time will be 90 minutes (60 mins if you want to save a bit of time); Do not add Deltafloc or Irish Moss.
  7. At flameout, wait until wort cools to 82°C (180 °F) to avoid volatizing hop oils. Add hop stand addition.
  8. After the total hop stand of 15 minutes, chill wort to 19°C (67 °F), decant starter or open Liquid Pitch and pitch Yeast and aerate.
  9. Over the course of the two-week fermentation, ramp the temperature up to 23°C (73 °F) to ensure full attenuation.
  10. On approximately Day 5 of fermentation when attenuation is complete, add the dry hop addition.
  11. When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 2.5 volumes (5 g/L) of CO2 (or add 125g of table sugar or 180g of Light Dried Malt Extract and drink fresh. Prost!
