Instructions: Steep the grains in separate muslin bags while the water heats to a boil in the boiling pot. Remove & discard the grains before the start of the boil.

Boil the syrup and dry malt with 3-5 gallons of water for 1 hour, adding the hops, Irish Moss and lactose at the specified times. Cool and place in a sanitized container adding the swollen yeast pack to the wort at a temp of no more than 85 degrees.

Hold at 70-80 degrees until fermentation begins, then drop to 60-70 degrees for 12 days. After 12 days, check beer with a hydrometer to be sure the finishing gravity has been reached or exceeded and the gravity has stopped dropping. Once gravity check have been completed, siphon beer to a priming tank, mix in corn sugar and bottle. Age beer for 3 weeks at 60-68 degrees before refrigerating and drinking. Starting gravity: 1.060 Finishing gravity: 1.022
