I did my first recipe using sorghum. Way easier than doing all grain, but I will see in the taste... Not really sure it has a name or a region to hail from. I was wanting to try a Leffe Brune clone, but they still havent got back to me with a hop schedule. So, I used the ingredients I had and came up with this.
Heated 3 gallons of water and added;
2lb Dark Brown sugar
2lb Golden Syrup
1.5oz EKG 60 minutes
1oz Hallertau Huckbrucker 30 minutes
1 teaspoon of Irish moss 15 minutes
6 crushed cloves 10 minutes
3.3lb Sorghum Flame out
1 split vanilla pod thrown into the carboy
Don't know about gravitates and what not, as I can't be bothered. But Brew Pal says it should come out about 6%. I will see what it tastes like in about two weeks.
The top image was taken straight away yesterday. The bottom one first thing this morning. Already smells quite strong.
