Technical information

Hot Steep Method

Items Needed to perform the Hot Steep Method:

  • 24-ounce Thermos
  • Funnel
  • Cone Coffee Filter
  • Coffee Grinder
  • Scale capable of weighing 50.0 g (± 0.1 g)
  • Glass Beaker, tall, 600 mL volume
  • Thermometer, standard, 0-200°C
  • Quart sized large or small mouth canning jars
  • Heating apparatus, capable of heating water to 65°C

Steps to perform the Hot Steep Method :

1. Grind 50.0g of malt in coffee grinder (grind of 10-15 sec)
2. Add 400ml of 65°C (149°F) water to Thermos
3. Add grist to water, cap thermos and shake for 20 sec
4. Let rest for 15min
5. When timer is up, swirl for a few seconds then poor everything into filter in funnel over large jar
6. Collect 100ml of wort and add it back into filter
7. Collect and Taste

Check Your Malt Grind

Take 100g of milled grist and Place in #14 Sieve stacked over #30,#60 over pan, Slide 18” on smooth surface for 3 min and Tap sharply on surface ever minute Record Grist retained above in each sieve.

Chart to the below gives Percentage of what should be retained in each sieve for each grind.

Calculating PPG and OG

PPG (SG of 1 lb of fermentable in 1 gal of water)

PPG=46.214*(DBCG/100-MC%/100-0.002)

Original Gravity Calculation

OG=1+(EF%/100)*(PPG*MW/BV)

MW = pounds of malt used
BV = Batch volume in gallons
EF% = Mashing efficiency
OG = Original Gravity
PPG = Pounds Per Gallon
MC = Moisture Content
DBCG = Course Grind Extract
