Ingredients (All Grain5 gal)

  • 13 lbs Cargill Euro Pils; Cargill Malt

    Cargill Euro Pils; Cargill Malt

    Fashioned after the great Pilsner malts of Europe, Cargill Euro Pils is malted in our Canadian malting facility using the finest Canadian two-row barley. This malt exhibits the distinct "grassiness" often associated with European Pilsner malts.

  • .5 lbs Caramel Munich 80 Malt; Malteries Franco-Belges

    Caramel Munich 80 Malt; Malteries Franco-Belges

    These malts are highly modified, caramelized and slightly roasted and are especially well suited to beers requiring additional caramel malt flavor and color.

  • 1 lbs Corn Sugar

    Corn Sugar

    Use in priming beer or in extract recipes where flaked maize would be used in a mash.

  • 1 lbs Belgian Candi Syrup; Dark Candi Inc.

    Belgian Candi Syrup; Dark Candi Inc.

    Candi syrup is a by-product of the candi sugar making process. Candi syrup has a more intense flavor and deeper color than rock candi sugar.

  • 1 oz Mt. Hood - 5.6 AA% pellets; boiled 60 min

    Mt. Hood

    Used mainly for aroma and flavor in American and German style ales and lagers. Aroma is mild, pleasant, light, and clean.

  • .5 oz Tettnanger - 3.7 AA% pellets; boiled 20 min

    Tettnanger

    Mild, slightly spicy. 'Noble'.

  • .5 oz Tettnanger - 3.7 AA% pellets; boiled 15 min

    Tettnanger

    Mild, slightly spicy. 'Noble'.

  • Imperial Yeast B45 Gnome

    Imperial Yeast B45 Gnome

    Gnome is the yeast for brewing Belgian inspired beers in a hurry. This strain is extremely flocculent and drops out of the beer quickly after fermentation. Gnome produces a nice phenolic character that goes well with hops, as well as with caramel and toffee flavors. Great for Belgian ales that need to be crystal clear without filtration.
