How much Pumpkin did you use?
I have gotten all the supplies to make a 5gal batch this weekend. The receipe I have calls for 60oz whihc you back for about 30min and then add to the Boiling wort. + you add a 1tsp of Pumpkin spice. just a reference point but let me know what if any difference your receipe called for?
This is the recipe i used I found it on the recipe DB.
8.00 lb Golden Promise (2 Row) UK (3.0 SRM) Grain 50.38 %
3.625 lb Pumpkin* (2 x 29 oz. cans of Libby pure pumpkin) (3.0 SRM) Grain 22.86 %
1.00 lb British Caramalt (34.0 SRM) Grain 6.30 %
1.00 lb Toasted Malt** (27.0 SRM) Grain 6.30 %
1.00 lb Wheat, Torrified (1.7 SRM) Grain 6.30 %
1.00 lb Rice Hulls (0.0 SRM) Adjunct 6.30 %
0.25 lb Molasses (80.0 SRM) Sugar 1.57 %
0.50 oz Magnum [13.40 %] (60 min) Hops 21.9 IBU
1 t. cinnamon (5 min)
1/2 t. allspice (5 min)
1/2 t. ground ginger (5 min)
1/4 t. nutmeg (5 min)
1/4 t. clove (5 min)
*Pumpkin baked uncovered for 1 hour at 350 degrees to caramelize some of the sugars and gelatinize starches
**Maris otter malt toasted for 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven
Mash at 152 degrees for 60 minutes. Pumpkin should be included in mash. Be sure to use rice hulls as the pumpkin will make for a slightly sticky sparge.
Boil for 60 minutes. I used magnum to bitter but you can use any clean bittering variety being sure to adjust amount to get 22 IBU. Add molasses with 10 minutes left in the boil. Add all spices with 5 minutes left in the boil.
