I'm about to brew a beer with the these ingredients:
Batch 5.28 gal:
Amount Item Type % or IBU
5,51 lb Smoked Malt (Weyermann) (6,0 EBC) Grain 48,26 %
3,31 lb Munich I (Weyermann) (14,0 EBC) Grain 28,96 %
1,10 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (3,9 EBC) Grain 9,65 %
0,75 lb Carafa Special I (Weyermann) (850,0 EBC) Grain 6,56 %
0,75 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 40L (78,8 EBC) Grain 6,56 %
1,23 oz Hallertauer Mittelfrueh [2,40 %] (60 min) Hops 8,6 IBU
1,23 oz Fuggles [5,00 %] (60 min) Hops 19,9 IBU
1 Pkgs Nottingham (Danstar #-) Yeast-Ale
60 min. 157 deg F.
Do you think this will turn out as a nice and warm Loon Lake Smoked Porter?
What is critical when brewing a beer like this?
