I'm getting pressure from the missus to clean out my HB cupboard and make room for some of her stuff. So what better way to make room, than to use up some of my supplies!
So here are the ingredients I’ve got at the moment to choose from:
Cascade Mahogany Porter can
Coopers Pale can
Coopers Booster pack #2
LDME
DDME
Dextrose
Lactose
Crystal Malt
Chocolate Malt
Dried Corn Syrup
Fuggles pellets
Goldings pellets
Safale 04
Multiple generic kit yeasts
Any suggestions to make a nice Porter recipe and how long I should steep/hop for?
Porter recipe with left overs???
Re: Porter recipe with left overs???
man, i'd be so tempted to go ALL of it and make a strong bastard of a barleywine 


Re: Porter recipe with left overs???
That would hurt KEG!
I'd go:
The pale can, dark malt, 1/2 the pale, some choc and crystal, fuggles for bitterness, goldings and fuggles for flavour (30/70) and a saf yeast.
Make a nice strong amber/dark ale for winter.

You could cut back on the grain to lessen the intensity, but I am getting a taste for it.

A homebrew is like a fart, only the brewer thinks it's great.
