For a 10 US gallon batch
16 lbs of flaked or cracked corn. I prefer cracked corn as it’s less mess. 40 oz of 2 row malted barley, ground.
Bring 4 gallon of water to a boil then turn off heat and add corn.
Add 10 lbs of sugar. Stir for around 5 minutes. Cover and let cool to 155°F then add the barley. Stir another 5 minutes. Cover and let stand for 90 minutes.
Then add the rest of your water. At below 90°F pitch your yeast. Wait 10 minutes then stir gently to incorporate the yeast.
7 to 10 days it will be ready to run.
