Imperial Stout

Origin: British Period: Traditional

Ingredients:

20l of unchlorinated water
4.5 to 5 kg amber malt extract
450g chocolate malt speciality grain
120 to 180g Northern Brewer bittering hops
45g Cascade of Willamette finishing hops

Method:

Preparation

As with most of the other recipes here, this has been gauged to make 20l of ale. Only a basic listing of ingredients is given, and for a brewing method please see this page for a step-by-step guide. Also see this page for a list of the equipment you'll need.

Note that this ale uses more malt extract than is usual. Expect a correspondingly lengthened fermentation time. Follow the instructions given in the basic extract brewing page to make your beer.
