Procedure 
 
NOTE: To get the "tant" of Guiness: sour about 24 oz. of stout (preferably Guiness) by leaving it out in a bowl for a week or more and then freezing it. While brewing, thaw out the stout and heat to 180° - 190° F for 20 min.. Add the soured stout at the end of the boil. 
 
1.     Steep specialty grains in water and bring to 150° F. Remove from heat and steep for additional 15 minutes. 
2.     Remove the grains and bring water to a boil. 
3.     Add extract, bittering hops, and maltodextrine. 
4.     Bring to a rolling boil for 60 minutes, and start timing when rolling boil is achieved. 
5.     Add hops and miscellaneous additions at intervals listed above. 
6.     Cool wort to 75° F - 80° F and place into primary fermentor. 
7.     Stir vigorously for a few minutes, then pitch yeast. 
8.     Ferment for 3 - 5 days, then transfer to secondary until fermentation has completed.* 
9.     Transfer to bottling vessel and add priming sugar, mix thoroughly and bottle. 
10.  Store bottles at 65° F - 70° F for 2 weeks minimum to carbonate, then store bottles at cool temperature and enjoy! 
 
* For actual fermentation time, check the specific gravity.
