Cooking Ingredients for Spiced Ale Recipe

7 lb Amber liquid extract
(Alexanders, I think)
2 lb Crystal malt, cracked
1 lb Chocolate malt, cracked
2 oz Hallertauer hops
2 oz Saaz hops
4 oz Fresh ginger, grated
2 tb Ground cinnamon
1 pt Starter of Wyeast American
Ale yeast

Spiced Ale Preparation

Steep crystal and chocolate malt in hot, but not boiling, water for about 1/2 hour. Strain out grains, sparge with hot water. Add extract, stir until dissolved. Bring to a boil and add all the Hallertauer hops, the ginger and the cinnamon. Boil 1 hour. Chill the wort, transfer to primary, and add Saaz hops. Pitch the yeast. When the fermentation slows, transfer to secondary fermentor. Prime with 3/4 cup corn sugar and bottle when fermentation appears complete. Really nice balance of flavors. The dry-hopped Saaz blended with the ginger and cinnamon aroma really well, and the ginger flavor is perfect. The cinnamon didn”t contribute much flavor, and seems to have led to a muddier beer than I usually get. Probably would have been better to use stick cinnamon instead of ground… The color is much lighter than I would have expected. Recipe By : Ken Weiss
