Pumpkin Pie Spice Ale |
| It's the time of year to add inappropriate ingredients to your brew |
|
3# Crystal Malt, 20 Lovibond 1 can Durkee's dried pumpkin pie spice
Boiled for 70 minutes. Hops: 0.5 oz Cascade pellets, at 7.7% AAU, for 60 minutes (about 20 IBU) Yeast: Wyeast 2112, California Common Yeast OG: 1.052 FG: unknown When fermentation is complete and the ale is ready to keg, take a can of Durkee's dried pumpkin pie spice and put it in a coffee maker. Brew a batch of spice "tea" and add this to the ale. Be careful when you do this because some water will remain in the coffee filter/spice goop and it will be really hot. Let it sit for a week to settle out, then all the ale after the first mug or so will be quite clear and spicy. Don't drink all five gallons at once. |
