Directions
Put 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water in the boil pot and heat to 160°F (71°C). While the water is heating, put the specialty grains (20° L crystal, 80° L crystal, wheat, and CaraVienne malts) into a grain bag and tie off the ends so the grains can't escape.

Once the water has reached 150-170°F (65.6-76.7°C, immerse the grain bag in the water for 30 minutes. For more information on steeping specialty grains, visit the Intermediate section of Let's Brew on the AHA website.

After 30 minutes, remove the grain bag and let it drip until it stops. Add malt extract to the water and stir until totally dissolved.

Bring to a rolling boil for 60 minutes, add hops at specified intervals from end of boil.

Strain wort into sanitized fermentation vessel with 2-3 gallons (7.6-11.4 L) of pre-boiled & chilled water for a total volume of 5 gallons (18.9 L).

Pitch yeast when temperature reaches 67°F (19°C).

Secure air lock or blow-off tube.

After nine days, rack to secondary fermenter and dry hop.

Let rest another nine days at 68°F (20°C).
