Hello again,
My wife wants me to make a pumpkin beer (I know it's April, just bear with me). I worked this up after some internet research.
5 gallons
Target OG 1.064
80 minute boil
Mash @154 for 75 minutes
9.92 pounds Maris Otter
1.92 pounds Crystal 40
1.06 pounds Special Roast
0.5 pounds dark brown sugar (added after the mash)
6 pounds pumpkin roasted @350 for an hour - half in mash, half added to boil
0.5 pounds rice hulls
1 ounce UK Kent Goldings at 60 minutes
2 T ginger
1 T clove
1 T allspice
0.5 T cinnamon
0.5 T nutmeg
(Spices all in at 3 minutes)
Wyeast 1450
Most of the recipes I've looked at use an american pale 2 row for the base, but I wanted a little more malty richness so I chose Maris Otter.
Thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!
Shane
