Scrapping previous ideas I've had for a holiday beer, I'll try my hand at a gingerbread baltic porter. This wonderful trove of information does not have too much on a baltic porter, so please critique my recipe as necessary.
8lbs Vienna
4 lbs Pils
1 lb biscuit
1 lb Caramunich 1 (51 L)
1 lb Munich
.5 lb Special B
.25 lb Black Patent
Northern Brewer at 60 for 25 IBUs
Northern Brewer at 20 for 8 IBUs
.5 lb Blackstrap Molasses at 15 min
1 tsp candied ginger
.5 tsp cinnamon
.25 tsp all spice
.25 tsp ground clove
WLP810 or other california common yeast
I'm aiming for a good baltic porter with subtle hints of gingerbread. OG is 1.080 FG is 1.026 (but with my system, it'll likely be significantly lower). Plan to mash at 154 and ferment in upper 50s.
Thanks!
