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, rock candi and bittering hops. Be sure to stir until rock candi is fully dissolved.
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 70° F and place into primary fermentor.
7. Stir vigorously for a few minutes, then pitch yeast.
8. Ferment for 4 - 6 days at 60° F, then transfer to secondary until fermentation is completed.*
9. Rack off trub & return to secondary. Store at 40° - 50° F for 2 weeks.
10. Transfer to bottling vessel and add priming sugar , mix thoroughly and bottle.
11. 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.Rogue Ale Brewmaster notes: Even though this is an Ale, fermenting at 60º F will result in a smoother, more rounded, almost Lager like beer. Don't worry about your final gravity being too high as Dead Guy virtually finishes out between 1.016 to 1.019.
