Notes
You will win the hearts of your dark beer drinkers with this one. Enjoy it. use only 1/2 cup of French Roast coffee in the final 5 min. of boil. Wonderful results. OK, My wife and I went to the South End Brewery in Charlotte NC and she ordered a "Mocha Porter", it was delicious. This is a representation of that beer. I find that if you grind the coffee just prior to use is best, add 1/2 cup to the last 5 min. of boil. The dark beer drinkers I know have come to love this porter as a an excellent example of the style of beer. Enjoy it. Another recipe brought to you by the "Azorean Brewer".

Really great Porter
2002-09-13 5:57pm
This turned out to be a really great Porter. But ya know what because Coffee is not a normal ingredient for me, I had a couple of ales and completely forgot the coffee LOL ... guess I will have to try this again ... oh well ...

OK, it's been bottled for 20 days (3 weeks) and it really is turning out to be a very tasty Porter. There is enough hops to blend all the delicious flavors together along with the Chocolate and Black Patent Malts. The lingering flavor of the Crystal makes you want to lick the empty glass. I highly recomend this as a traditional Porter.
I brewed this too...

It's now in the fermenter, perking away. My OG was 1054 and so far looks and smells good. I am a BIG fan of Cascade dry hopping, but in a porter? If you are there, Azorean, let me know if it works. OBTW I did NOT forget the coffee :-)

I thought about it and this should really be all English. Swapped the Cascades for E.K.G. hops. I am getting ready to brew this next weekend 2-8-03. "E" post your email address OK? I want to chat with you. Paul.

I modified this a little bit for a friend, making it about a 4 pound mini-mash and omitting the dry hopping. I assited him in the bottling yesterday and it was spectacular. Big round and smooth. I can't wait to try it cold and carbonated. Kudos to you Azorean.
