Midwinter’s Porter

Posted by Brian in December 30th, 2007

Published in Recipes

This is the winter recipe from Mainstreet
Homebrew’s newsletter. They bill it as bigger and bolder than most
west coast porters. It will be interesting to compare it to the west
coast porter I brewed earlier this month.

Midwinter’s Porter
8 lbs Amber Malt Extract
12 oz CaraMunich
4 oz 120l Crystal Malt
14 oz Chocolate Malt
6 oz Melanoidin
6 oz Special Roast
3 oz Carafa Malt
2 oz No. Brewer Hops (1 oz @ 60 min, 1/2 @ 20 min, 1/2 @ 10 min)
1 tsp Irish Moss @ 45 min
1/2 tsp Yeast nutrient @ 5 min
British Ale Yeast (WLP005)
OG 1.065

This sounds like a good recipe!

This comes from a very nice site, HomebrewBlog.net Check them out for more great stuff!

[image]Ok, we made it through one more year! I hope that everyone has had a wonderful 2007 and an even better 2008!

I just dread one thing, when I have to write the date on a check or something, somehow it seems to take until june before I get it right. This year I may add posts about brew pubs etc into the category list, why not right?

Anyone that has a favorite, beer, brew, bar or related site, post a comment here and I will check them out!

Again, I wish everybody a wonderful new year! Have a Cold one!
