This recipe is my adjustment to Yuri Rage’s which was on HomeBrewTalk.com on 5/27/12 and simply placed here on BeerSmith. The thread had over 185,000 views, 870 replys, and a 5 star rating. The recipe has over 4300 hits on Google, YouTube videos, and numerous blogs. My changes made it a very drinkable, and it disappeared pretty fast.
Spread the pumpkin filling on a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes @ 350 degrees F before adding to the mash.
During the Secondary Fermentation (clearing stage) add a spice tea of 1.5 tsp “Savory Spice Shop baking Spice” Steep spices in 1 cup of hot water for 10-15 minutes, cool then add.
There will be several inches of trub almost regardless of how you try to contain the pumpkin. Your yield may be slightly less than 5 gallons.
I use ground spices rather than whole sticks or seeds. The flavors develop almost instantly when dry, ground spices are added to the hot liquid.
