Rich's Dopplebock is a full-bodied dark Weinacht Bock

• 9.9 lbs dark unhopped extract
• 1 lb dark crystal malt
• .5 lb Munchen malt
• .5 lb Chocolat malt
• 1 lb toasted barley
• 3 oz Hallatauer Hops
• 1 oz Saaz hops
• Liquid Munchen lager yeast
• 1/4 tsp Irish Moss

The procedure:

• Step-mash the grains to conversion
• sparge with liquid to bring volume to 3.5 gallons
• add extract and 1/2 boiling hops. At 30 minutes, add remainder of boiling hops
• Add Irish moss at 50 minutes. Add flavor hops at 58 minutes.
• Sparge, cool, pitch yeast to 5.5 gallons wort.
• Rack to secondary after 3-5 days
• Bottle (with 3/4c corn sugar for conditioning) after all activity is stopped.

Notes: Fresh from secondary, the brew is drinkable--but very harsh. Age at least one month before drinking.
