All, I'm going to brew up a porter for my next batch and this is what I have come up with so far for a partial mash/extract brew. I'd love to hear any suggestions or critiques.
6.0 lb NB Amber Malt Syrup
3.15 lb NB Pilsen Malt Syrup
1.0 lb Simpsons crushed black malt
3 oz. Northern Brewer Hop Pellets (60 min)
1 oz. German Tettnang Hop Pellets (15 min)
Wyeast 1098 British Ale
Plan is to steep the pound of black malt for 30 minutes at 155-160 and strain out. Then boil the malt and NB pellets for 1 hour with the fifteen minute addition of the Noble for aroma. Chill, top off, aerate, pitch, and ferment two weeks and then keg.
Anyone think this will be too harsh with a pound of Black malt? Any other suggestions appreciated.
thanks,
mfs
