Big D,
Grumpy Thomas recons this is pretty good.
Not using an ale malt as a base but you might be able to work it around

50.0 3.00 kg. Vienna Malt
16.7 1.00 kg. Munich Malt
16.7 1.00 kg. Pilsner Malz
16.7 1.00 kg. Rauchmalz

Original gravity = 1.057
IBU = 29 (all Saazer hops 75 minute boil)
Koelsch yeast
Mashed for 45 mins at 60degC
45 mins at70degC
Fermented at 14-16degC

Recipe can be replicated with IMCA Munich malt (12EBC) for similar colour and maltiness.
The Vienna malt and yeast were both 'gifts', thought I'd use them whilst they were fresh!

If you are not used to smoked beers I suggest brewing an ale and adding 250g rauchmalz

[Jazman]

well i have dont eh gt thoma recipe and i love it the tast is strong to start of with but it gets better and im addictided to it so i used 1kg rauch malz 3 kilo imc munich 1 kg pis and hallertau and danstar nottigham and i love this beer will put iti in the recipe section

 

[Gulf Brewery]

Another way of doing this is to make a lapsang tea and add this to the beer. It can give a very smoky flavour easily. You can do a small addition at a time until you come to a good level

Good Day
If I remember correctly there are/were two types of smoked malt available. One you only needed 100-200 gms for the smoked taste and the other you needed 1+ kg for the same effect. You might need to establish which type of smoked malt you have.
All the best, Barry.

Gidday Barry,

Rauchmalt by its name defines the German beech smoked malt that is famous for its use around Bamburg in beers like Schlenkerla. It can be used up to 100%, however the trick, as in all brewing, is to balance the smokiness with something else. In the "Wobbly Boot" recipe (a Schlenkerla dark smoked wheat beer lookalike) I have posted before, you need to use a W68 yeast strain to balance the flavours and aromas (White Labs WLP300 or Wyeast 3068). Lesser amounts around 30% can deliver a nice smokey ale or say 10% for a smokey lager.

There is also peated malt that comes from the UK and is intended for distilling. It is quite heavily smoked with peat as the name suggests but is loaded with phenols and frankly not something I would use in beer. I dont believe that any is currently available in Australia.

Isn't Golden Promise a smokey malt Wes? I think i remember reading about using it in smokey Scottish Ales. I could be very wrong of course.

 

[wessmith]

Golden Promise is a traditional Scottish SPRING barley (as opposed to Maris Otter, Halcyon and Optic being winter barleys) and as such typically has a very low protein level. There is not a whiff of smoke in sight - it makes a great ale malt and is always in high demand from brewerys like Timothy Taylor.
