Honey Rye
Honey Rye: 15 gallons of product was achieved by brewing for a little higher than usual original gravity, which was brought back down by adding 2 gal of boiled water, up to the very top of the 15 gal boil kettle after end of boil. Simmer for 3-4 minutes to ensure good mixture, then check your original gravity again.
