Instructions:
1. Heat 2 gallons of water until steamy and place grains into the water. Cover the kettle, turn heat OFF and let steep for 20 to 30 minutes, agitating GENTLY every few minutes.
2. Remove grains, add and dissolve malt extract and any other sugar syrups or solids in the recipe. Turn heat back on and bring to a slow, simmering boil.
3. Add 1 oz. Northern Brewer hops and 1 to 3 inches Brewer's Licorice and begin timing a 30 minute simmering boil.
4. Stir gently but frequently to avoid possible scorching on the kettle's surface. Keep heat high enough to maintain a gentle boil.
5. In the last 5 to 7 minutes of the 30 minute simmer add 1 oz. Kent Golding hops.
6. Cover the kettle, remove from heat, and cool to approximately 70 degrees F before adding to your sanitized fermenter with additional water to make 5 gallons total volume and adding yeast.
