Description:

You may look at this and think double chocolate?! It’s not chocolate as in a candy bar, but in the grain. In this recipe I used 1/2 lb. of chocolate malt instead of 1/4 lb. for the average 2 1/2 gallon batch.

Size:

• 2 1/2 gallons 

Ingredients:

• 4 1/2 lb. 2-row
• 1/2 lb. Special-B
• 1/2 lb. Chocolate
• 1/2 lb. Gambrinus Honey Malt
• 1/2 lb. Flaked Wheat
• 1/2 oz. East Kent Goldings (bittering) 60 min.
• 1/2 oz. Fuggles (aroma) 10 min.
• 1/4 tsp Irish Moss 15 min
• Wyeast 1098 British Ale Yeast
• 3/4 tsp. Polyclar
• 1/2 cup Light DME(priming)

Brewing Instructions:

Mash All Grains in a cooler at 122f for 35 min. Add boiling water to bring the temp up to 146f. for 75 min. Lauter 3x, add enough water to get 4 gallons, and bring to a boil. Add hops and Irish moss at designated times.
