Post by: JohnQ on October 03, 2011, 08:07:38 AM
I was asked about the recipe for my version of RB's Hoppy Porter, I guess it has "evolved" a fair ways from the original, so here's what we were sampling on Saturday.

5 lbs 8.0 oz   Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM)                  
4 lbs 8.0 oz   Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM)
2 lbs             Wheat Malt, Pale (Weyermann) (2.0 SRM)        
1 lbs             Caramel/Crystal Malt - 40L (40.0 SRM)      
1 lbs             Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM)                        
1 lbs             Chocolate Malt (450.0 SRM)                  
4.0 oz           Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM)

2.00 oz          Nugget Leaf [15.10 %] - Boil 60.0 min    
1.00 oz          Fuggles [4.50 %] - Boil 15.0 min            
2.00 oz          Willamette Leaf [5.10 %] - Dry Hop 21 days

I see you used Nottingham yeast. That was in my brown ale. An underrated yeast, I think. I might try that for my stout next time.

Yes, a really good yeast. Fermented quick and clean.  Many folks have said that of the 3 versions of this recipe I've brought many times that this one is "the best".  Part of that was the switch to Notty, I think.  Besides, I just love saying that I'm using naughty yeast.
Wonder if the grain folks can supply Naughty?

The grain folks mostly do Fermentis - but I can ask...

Yes, I really liked this. I can see I'm really going to have to build my grain stalk a lot if I'm going to keep up with all these great recipes! :-)
