Notes
Add 3/4 lb Crystal 60 and 1/4 lb Roasted Barley to muslin bag (each amount was slightly over). Add to 1 gallon water in pot, steep until it reaches 170F (accidentally brought it to a boil with grains in pot). Remove grain bag, drain thoroughly without squeezing. Pour in both cans of amber extract. Add 40 grams Fuggles hops (First Wort Hopping). Add water to fill pot 3/4 of the way up (6 qts). Bring to boil, boil for 60 minutes. At 15 mins to go, add 20 grams Fuggles hops. At 14 mins to go, add Irish Moss. After 60 mins total boil time, remove from heat. Add to cool water and ice. While cooling, rehydrate 2 packages (12 grams) of yeast in 80F+/-3F water. (Failed to notice Munton's instructions to use 40C water and instead used 27C, the usual temp for Fermentis yeast.) When wort is at 65F, pitch yeast. Cover fermenter and aerate well (shake vigorously). Attach airlock. Lag time was less than 8 hours, bubbling nicely.
