Recipe Notes

This is adjusted with half the hopping rate of the first version of the porter which was far too bitter.

Heat water to 160F, steep grain for 30 minutes (maintaining temperature)

I am not sure about the gravity of the extracts. This is based on the porter recipe in 'How to Brew' but with some DME substituted for LME. There is also more malt total in this than the recipe, and the hops were upped slightly to compensate (read: I don't have a scale to split the bag of DME).
