Re: Basic porter recipie
I did a belting St Peter's clone. I basically used about 15% crystal malt then 6% choc malt. The rest DME. Challenger early, EKG late hops to about 35 IBU. The recipe calls for honey to be added after a week. I went for 15%, I think, but I'd up that to 20% now, I reckon. Gravity of about 1.050 counting the honey. Windsor yeast which I bottled too early after ten days. Windsor needs at least two weeks in my experience.
Does that help? As an old boss of mine used to say, I can 'unpack' that if you want me to.

0.25 oz Northern Brewer 2 min

Steep the cracked specialty grains in two gallons of 155-degree water for 45 minutes. Remove the grain, rinse it with a gallon of water at 160 degrees, and turn up the heat. Discard or plan to reuse the grain. Turn up the heat and add the amber malt extract. Bring it to a boil. Boil this for 60 minutes, but don't add the hops until 15 minutes into the boil. Follow the schedule above for all the additions. Ferment for two weeks and then dry-hop for a week. Bottle or keg, and you have a great beer to bring to the next party you attend.
