Use orange blossom honey, if possible.

Dump the stuff into a kitchen colander or large strainer and catch the runnings in a pot. Pour another 1/2 gallon of hot water over the grain and catch this runoff as well.
Add to 2 gallons of water to boil, and boil. When boiling add the extract, honey, sugar (candi) and boiling hops.
Add 1/2 oz. of corriander and 1/2 oz. of orange peel at last 15 minutes of boil. Add another 1/2 oz. of corriander during cooling for aroma. Add 1/2 oz. orange peel at cooling.
Ferment at room temp. Rack after one week. Three to six weeks in secondary (longer due to the higher OG). |
