Yield: 5 US gallons

  • 12 lbs – Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) (Grain)
  • 12.0 oz – Chocolate (Briess) (350.0 SRM) (Grain)
  • 10.0 oz – Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) (Grain)

  • 1.0 oz – Willamette [5.5%] – Boil 15 min (Hops)
  • 1 pkgs – SafAle English Ale (DCL/Fermentis #S-04) (Yeast)

Directions

All the equipment or comes into contact with brew must be sanitized. Though the fermenting equipment can be done while the wort is cooling. Be sure to clean and sanitize the fermenters, airlock, lid, hose, hydrometer and test jar and rubber stopper.

Step 1
  • 12 lbs – Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) (Grain)
  • 12.0 oz – Chocolate (Briess) (350.0 SRM) (Grain)
  • 10.0 oz – Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) (Grain)
  • 8.0 oz – Caramel/Crystal Malt -120L (120.0 SRM) (Grain)

Begin by heating 2.5 gallons of water in your brew pot. Add above grains and tie a knot at one end of the “Grain Bag” leaving room for the grains to be loose in the bag. Place the Grain Bag in the water.

Slowly raise the temperature to 150° to 160°F (max temp.). Steep your grains at this temperature for 20 minutes.

Do not heat past recommended temp you’ll get a beer that won’t ferment properly.

After 20 minutes, remove the “Grain Bag” from the pot. Do not squeeze the bag, just let the liquid drain from the bag into the pot.

The water is now called a “Wort” at this point and will be referred to as such.

Step 2
  • 2.0 oz – Tettnang [4.5%] – Boil 60 min (Hops)

After removing grain bag bring the “Wort” to a boil. It should be a rolling boil, but be careful to avoid a “Boil Over.

Step 3
  • 1.0 oz – Willamette [5.5%] – Boil 15 min (Hops)

15 mins before end of boil add the above

Fermentation Through Bottling Your Power Pack Porter Beer

Once the 60 minute boil is over, it is time to cool the wort. There are many ways to cool a wort, the AIH recommendation is a wort chiller. Cool the wort to approximately 100° F as quickly as possible.

Transfer the wort into the primary fermenting vessel, then top off with cold water until a total of 5.125 gallons is in the primary fermenter. Aerate the wort at this point. This can be accomplished with an aeration stone or simply by rocking the fermenter back and forth once the lid is in place.

This is the time that you will want to take a specific gravity reading. Use a hydrometer and record the reading.
Step 4

Once the wort is cooled to 78° F, it is safe to pitch the yeast. Pitch according the proper procedures of the type of yeast you have.

  • 1 pkgs – SafAle English Ale (DCL/Fermentis #S-04) (Yeast)

Prepare a 2L yeast starter by stirring the yeast into the water then let mixture stand in cup for 15 minutes, make sure it is bubbling and then you will add it to your beer after the beer has cooled.

Make sure your carboy is around a third empty leaving space for frothing and foaming.

Pitch yeast and ferment at lower end of what the yeast package says for 7-14 days or when fermentation bubbling has stopped.

After 4 days rack into your secondary carboy and let sit for awhile. The less exposure to oxygen the better it will taste so be careful when you rack.

After you wait for the second time you will bottle the beer sterilize and then bottle and cap again siphon slowly so that that sediments don’t get mixed in.

Step 5
  • 3 oz of priming sugar

Add priming sugar before bottling.
