Notes

Mash: Single Infusion w/ Pseudo-Decoct/Mash-Out. 4.5 gal Mash Liq. (w/ Calcium Carbonate) held at 154F for 1 hour, or until Saccharification. Pull a decent portion of thick mash and gently boil and stir for 15 min. Return to mash, mix in gently and let settle while bringing sparge water up to temp. Lauter: Sparge slowly with 5.14 gal Sparge Liq. (no CaCO3). Recirculate 3 to 5 times, or until wort runs clear (no bits, or "dust"). Boil: Add bittering hops when kettle volume has reduced to 6.25 gal. Boil for 60 Minutes after this point. Add flavor hops and Irish Moss 10 to 15 minutes till end of boil. Kill heat, toss in any remaining hops and transfer through chiller to fermenter. Pitch: Cool to 41-50F, aerate and pitch 2 quart 1.050sg starter made two days prior. Relax, and let yourself finally collapse into a stupor from all the Salvator, Aassbok, Adam, SN Christmas beer and homebrew you have been drinking throughout the day. And not one minute earlier Dammit!
