Ingredients
- 7 lb Light Scottish Malt Extract
- 1 lb Dry Dark Malt Extract
- 1Â 1/2 lb 80L Crystal Malt
- 6 ounce Chocolate Malt
- 2 ounce Black Patent Malt
- 8 ounce Dextrin Malt
- 1/4 tsp Brewing salts
- 2 ounce Perle Hops (bittering)
- Â Â Alpha=7 6%
- 1 ounce Hallertauer Hops (aromatic)
- Â Â Alpha=3 9%
- 1/2 tsp Gypsum
- 2/3 c. Corn sugar for priming
- Â Â Water to 5 gallons
- Â Â Red Star Lager yeast
Directions
- Mash crushed Crystal and Dextrin Malts in a pan of water at 150F for 1 hour. Strain through collander into main kettle and sparge with 150F water till it runs clear. Add in sufficient water to kettle to dissolve extracts (approx. 3 gallons). Dissolve extracts, salt and gypsum into kettle and bring to a ROLLING boil. Stir in 1/2 ounce. Perle Hops and boil 15 minutes. Stir in 1 ounce. Perle Hops and boil 15 minutes. Stir in Choco late and Black Patent Malts (UNCRUSHED!) and boil 15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 ounce. Perle Hops and boil 15 minutes. Add in Hallertaur Hops in the last minute of the boil. Strain though a nylon meshed colander into Primary fer mentor. Top up to 5 gallons with cool water. Cold wort as fast as possible. (I cold- ed it to 80 degrees in 9 min.) At 80F add in yeast. Ferment for 12 days at 40-48 degrees. Rack it into the secondary and let it sit and ferment VERY slowly for 1 month at 32-40 degrees. Bottle and let age for a full month at 34 degrees. This brew is not quite as strong as a traditional Dopplebock.
- However, the resulting beer was none less than excellent. It had a good shot of malt flavor (esp. the chocolate!). The head quite creamy. The hop ping was perfectly balanced. It is the smoothest homebrew I've ever had.
