Recipe Type Extract
Fermentables
6 lbs extra light dry malt extract
1 lbs Munich malt
3 bags Cranberries
Hops
1 oz Fuggles boiling
1 oz Fuggles as finishing hops
Yeast yeast
Procedure I thawed the berries and blended with enough water to make a little over 2 quarts of slush. Meanwhile I did a normal extract brew using the Munich malt as a specialty grain (i.e., put in a double layered pair of clean panty hose and stuck in the pot while I bring the cold water to a boil). At the end of the hour of boiling I put in the finishing hops and poured in the cranberry liquid for the final minute or two as I turned off the heat. I bottled after a week.

This was a big thick mess and needs a big pot---mine boiled over. Add Cascade for finishing. Cool and pitch yeast and amylase.
