Well, since Brad has helped me out so much in the last couple of days I figured I would make my first post a good one.
This is my recipe for a Smoked Robust Porter. If you don't like smoke you will not like this beer. If you do not like Porters don't brew it. For everyone else this is an excelent brew that is well balanced between malty & smoky. It can be kegged a month after brewing but benifits from aging longer. I've had a year old bottle from a friend that was phenomenal.
Thanks Brad for your help. Hope you guys enjoy the recipe.
I always hit a low efficiency with this one due to my set-up. If you normaly get better than 60% adjust as needed keeping the percentages the same.
