Ingredients:
10 lbs 2-Row Brewers Malt
1 lbs American Caramel 60°L
0.5 lbs Chocolate Malt
0.5 lbs Black Malt
1 ea White Labs WLP004 Irish Stout
0.5 oz Willamette (3.8%) - added during boil, boiled 60 min
0.75 oz Willamette (3.8%) - added during boil, boiled 30 min
1.25 oz East Kent Goldings (5.0%) - added during boil, boiled 60 min
.25 oz East Kent Goldings (5.0%) - added dry to secondary fermenter
1 oz Oak Wood Chips - added dry to secondary fermenter
Notes:
Oak chips are soaked in 3 oz. of bourbon for 2 months. Bourbon is added into secondary along with oak chips.
I use an unorthodox mashing method. I dump the grist into the mashing vessel (5 gallon Rubbermaid MLT) and top off with hot water to bring the mash to 153 °F and let it set for 30 minutes. Drain off the first runnings, then repeat. Drain off the second runnings then sparge with the remainder of the 8 gallons of water I started with.
