Directions: Stir extract into 2 gallons (7.6 L) of warm water. Bring to a boil – total boil time will be 35 minutes. Add hops and Irish moss according to the recipe (note that all bittering in this beer comes from late addition hops). Cool the wort after completing the boil, and then rack to a fermenter with enough cold water to make 5 gallons. When temperature drops to 66F (19C), pitch two packages of yeast or a ½ gallon starter and aerate well. Ferment at 66-68F (19-20C) for two weeks, then rack to secondary with dry hops added. Leave on hops for three weeks before bottling or kegging. <http://www.beertown.org/email/aha/special_offer/images/recipe_bottom.jpg> <http://www.beertown.org/email/aha/special_offer/images/recipe_bottom_right. jpg For more information about the American Homebrewers Association visit us online. <http://www.maildogmanager.com/link.html?url=669&client=aobhtml&campaign=124 4&amp;email=alboyce(a)bigfoot.com&gt; _____ Trouble viewing this email?
