prepare the pumpkin a few days in advance of the brew day. Halve the pumpkin, remove the seeds, and cut the halves into pieces about 10cm long and sprinkle them liberally with brown sugar on a cooking sheet. Roast in the oven at 375F until soft (2-3 hours). Remove the pumpkin from the oven and let cool. Then peel off the pumpkin skin, dice into large cubes (being sure to save the juice for its colour and flavor), and store in a covered bowl in the fridge. On brew day, let the pumpkin warm to room temperature and put it in the kettle for the duration of the boil.
