Jerry's Baltic Porter
Baltic Porter • All Grain • 4.50 gal
I did brew this it has been in the fermentation tank for 13 days on 12-02-09 it may be ready to bottle. The specific gravity has dropped to a very high attenuation, however it was so big it probably needs a little more time for more of the yeast to flocculate.

Chocolate Malt; Bairds Malt
Chocolate Malt; Bairds Malt
This product is used in the production of Porters and sweet Stouts. The flavour is sharp and somewhat acrid. A great deal of care is needed in the use of this material because of its intense colour and flavour. Manufacture is similar to Amber malt but higher final temperatures are used. Flavour again is due to pyrazines and pyrroles.

Crystal 150; Bairds Malt
Crystal 150; Bairds Malt
Crystal or Caramel malts have a distinctive toffee flavour, which becomes more intense as colour is increased, and at the higher end of the colour range burnt or roasted malt flavours may begin to appear. Traditionally in the UK, Crystal malt of colour 70 -80 °ASBC has been used at about 5% of the grist to give the characteristic colour and flavour of UK Bitters and Pale Ales. Adjustment of the amount and/or colour of the Crystal malt may brew some very distinctive beers, but this may require some careful experimentation. Crystal malts have been used in the brewing of Lager beers, but considerable care is required to ensure that whilst a distinctive flavour is achieved, the crystal flavour and colour does not become too dominant. In all beers they can help prevent the formation of oxidised (cardboard) flavours.

Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05
Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05
The most famous ale yeast strain found across America, now available as a ready-to-pitch dry yeast. Produces well balanced beers with low diacetyl and a very clean, crisp end palate. Sedimentation: low to medium. Final gravity: medium. Pitching instructions: Re-hydrate the dry yeast into yeast cream in a stirred vessel prior to pitching. Sprinkle the dry yeast in 10 times its own weight of sterile water or wort at 27C± 3C(80F ±6F). Once the expected weight of dry yeast is reconstituted into cream by this method (this takes about 15 to 30 minutes), maintain a gentle stirring for another 30 minutes. Then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Alternatively, pitch dry yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20C(68F). Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes and then mix the wort e.g. using aeration.

Good beer overall high alcohol
2009-12-31 10:28am
It fits the profile. It has a little hop aroma. It is opaque like a porter should be not overly dark and malty like a stout. It has a lot of chocolate character but it is hard to taste because it is so young. With its strength so high it needs time to age. It has very little head retention and there is very little carbonation. I tried to adjust for that in JDHBP by adding more sugar.
Good beer overall

Due to the high efficiency the beers have been turning out less malty than I had hoped. This is a good beer overall has a high alcohol content so you can't drink too many. I have this exact recipe but double hopped for later this month. Good aroma chocolate....good taste...great color and good finish not dry and doesn't leave a bitter or harsh aftertaste.
