Sierra Nevada Porter

Post by Goulders » Mon Jan 23, 2012 11:15 am

Has anyone experience of this brew?

I found on here a recipe for 19l, which from memory is:

3400g Pale Malt
250g Crystal
250g Choc Malt
110g Black Patent

Nugget and Williamette

US-05. 90 min mash and 60 min boil. At a guess 75% efficiency.

On brew365 it suggests 39IBU, whereas Sierra Nevada's site says 32 IBU and Goldings and Williamette. Taking my hops AA (Nugget & Williamette) that I bought brings it to around 47 IBU but I can adjust this in Beersmith to bring down.

I have enough ingredients of the above to make a 23l brew. I'd be grateful for any thoughts.

Had a good search around and found a partial mash recipe, so put into beersmith and have come up with this. I don't think I will be able to get Munich Malt with the same EBC, so will need to adjust for that. My friend liked this when he lived in the States so will give this a go. I am not sure how many EKGs I have left so may substitute for another bittering hop. Should I add some torrified wheat for head retention, or will this not be needed?

Cheers

Jon
