Canadian Maple Porter - American Porter

An Authentic Homebrew Recipe - by kdanc341

RECIPE INFO

This is an experiment with what I happened to have remaining from previous brews more than a legitimate recipe, I happen to be able to get Canadian sourced malt at my local shop so I figured add maple and call it a Canadian Maple Stout.

NOTES

Mash 152F for 60 minutes. I batch sparged in 1.7 Gal of water with strike temp of 168F, sparge with 2 Gal of 168F water resulting in 2.5 Gal of wort. Boil thirty minutes finishing with 2 Gal. Ferment in the normal ale temperature range (20-22C). It should ferment for 8-10 days and the fenugreek added to secondary. I use the maple as a priming sugar but you can us it in the primary/secondary, note it will give off an woody flavour and you need to correct the fermentation time for the added sugar.

"The fenugreek might have been too much, it gives it a bit of a planty flavour. I dont mind but those sensitive to curry like flavours might not like it."
