Preparation Directions:
You can begin this beer recipe by steeping the chocolate, black malts, and roasted barley in 2.5 gallons of cold water. Use a sterile container. Now using a stove, or burner of your choice, you will want to heat the contents to 150 degrees Fahrenheit, and let cook for 30 minutes at that temperature. You can then remove the grains and rinse back into the cooking container with hot water. Now mix and stir in the dry malt and crushed Baker's chocolate, and bring the contents to a boil. Boil it for 15 full minutes, and then add in Target hops. Once the Target hops have been added, boil it all for another 45 minutes, then once finished add in Fuggles hops. Once the Fuggles hops have been added, again boil for another 15 minutes. Once the 15 minutes has expired, remove the whole container from the heat, and let it cool exactly 15 minutes. Once the ingredients have sufficiently cooled, add it all to a fermenter, in addition to enough chilled pre boiled ice water to fill it to the 5.25 gallon marker. Once added, let it cool to 70 degrees Fahrenheit in a cool dry place, then pitch the yeast. Seal the container and let it ferment for exactly 10 full days. Once the 10 days has expired, rack it to sealed sterile secondary container, and let the brew age in a cool dark place for a whole month. Prime now with the dry malt and bottle it up using clean and sterile beer bottles. Set the bottles aside in a cool, dark, and dry place, and let set for another 1 to 2 full months.
