Black Rock Classic Porter Beer Kit 1.7kg

Black Rock Classic Porter is a dark malty brew. Brewed with four specialty malts Black Rock Classic Porter is a complex, full flavoured dark beer. Brew with 1kg Black Rock Liquid Brewing Sugar (or 1kg other sugar) for a more black lager style finish. For even more body, colour and malt flavour use 1.7kg Black Rock Amber or Dark unhopped malt extract instead of sugar or dextrose.
This Classic Porter pours a deep brown color with an SRM of 30, offering a rich and complex malt profile. The blend of MaltEurop Lager, Gladfield Medium Crystal, Light Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, and Aurora malts provides a full-bodied mouthfeel with notes of caramel, chocolate, and a hint of roasted coffee. The bitterness from NZ Hops Green Bullet™ is moderate, contributing to a balanced finish with an IBU of 25. At 4.5% ABV, this Porter is both sessionable and satisfying.
For best results, brew Black Rock Classic Porter with Black Rock Unhopped Amber or Dark (or a second can of Black Rock Classic Porter to boost bitterness) & an 11.5g sachet of Fermentis Yeast: SafAle™ US-05.
For a craftier option, try adding rich flavours to enhance this brew.
For chocolate flavours, add cacao nibs during fermentation.
For bourbon flavours, add straight bourbon or bourbon essence before bottling or kegging.
For coffee flavours, add whole coffee beans, and/or freshly brewed cold brew coffee around 3 days into fermentation.
For extra body, sweetness and a milky finish, add 200-400g of lactose during fermentation (Note: this will increase your SG readings and give you a higher finishing gravity due to the unfermentable sugars contained in lactose).
