"Here's a simplified version of the recipe using pre-hopped liquid malt extract instead of grains and hops: Honey Rye Ale (5 gallon extract recipe) Ingredients: - 6 lbs Light or Amber pre-hopped liquid malt extract - 1 lb Honey malt (for steeping) - 0.5 lb Carapils malt (for steeping) - 1 lb Honey (add at end of boil) - 1 packet US-05 ale yeast Instructions: 1. Steep the honey malt and carapils in 2-3 quarts of 150-160°F water for 30 minutes. 2. Remove grains and rinse with 1-2 quarts hot water. 3. Add water to make 2.5-3 gallons total volume. Bring to a boil. 4. Remove from heat and stir in the liquid malt extract. Return to a boil. 5. Boil for 15 minutes. 6. Turn off heat and stir in the honey. 7. Cool wort and transfer to fermenter. Top up to 5 gallons with cool water. 8. Pitch yeast when wort is below 70°F. 9. Ferment at 65°F for 2 weeks. 10. Package and carbonate as usual. This simplified recipe removes the need for adding hops separately by using pre-hopped extract. It won't be an exact match to the original all-grain recipe, but should produce a similar honey rye ale suitable for extract brewing. Adjust amounts of extract if needed to hit the target original gravity of around 1.052.
