Treacle Porter

Porter - Robust Porter

A fine example of Robust Porter. Almost pitch black, with a rich, sweet, malty taste.

Ingredients

1 lb Carastan (35°L)
8 oz Chocolate Malt (350°L)
8 oz Black Patent (500°L)
6 lb Munton's Extra-light Dried Malt Extract
4 oz Malto-Dextrin
4 oz Black Treacle
1 oz Target Hops (10% AA) (60 minutes)
½ oz East Kent Goldings Hops (6% AA) (15 minutes)
1 tsp Irish Moss
Danstar Windsor Yeast

Method

Put crushed grains in nylon straining bags and tie closed. Steep the grains in 1½ gallons of 155°F water for 30 minutes. Remove the bag and allow it to drain. Add Dry Malt Extract, Malto-Dextrin and Treacle, top up to 2½ gallons and bring water to a boil. When water boils, add the Bittering hops. Boil for 45 minutes and add the Irish Moss and the Flavour hops. Boil for the final 15 minutes.
