This is a clone of BYO "Shawn of the Red" (http://byo.com/scottish-ale/item/2167-shaun-of-the-red-irish-red-ale) Irish Red Ale that I wanted to try as a first homebrew, but put into an easier interface for brewing.

Special Instructions
1.Place crushed grains in a nylon steeping bag. In a large kitchen pot, heat 3.0 qts. (2.8 L) of water to 161 °F (72 °C). Submerge grain bag in water and let steep at 150 °F (66 °C) for 45 minutes.
2.While grains are steeping, heat 1.5 qts. (~1.5 L) of water to 170 °F (77 °C) in a sauce pan or in a kettle with temperature adjustment (like mine).
3.Also, begin heating 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water to a boil in your brewpot.
4.When steeping is done, place a colander over your brewpot and lift the grain bag into it.
5.Pour the "grain tea" through the bag (which will strain out most of the grain bits), then rinse the bag with the 1.5 qts. (~1.5 L) of 170 °F (77 °C) water.
6.Heat the (roughly) 3 gallons (11 L) of wort in your brewpot to a boil, then stir in dried malt extract (It will foam a bit, so don’t pour all the extract in at once).
7.Bring the wort back to a boil, add the Target hops and boil for 60 minutes. Add the Kent Goldings hops with 30 minutes left in the boil.
8.Add liquid malt extract, and Irish moss with 15 minutes left in boil. Add Fuggles 5 minutes before the end of the boil.
9.After the boil, put a lid on your brewpot and cool the wort (either in a cold-water bath in your sink or with a wort chiller). Cool until the side of the brewpot no longer feels warm.
10.Transfer wort to your fermenter and top up to 5 gallons (19 L) with cool water. Aerate the wort and pitch your yeast. Ferment at 68 °F (20 °C).
11.When fermentation slows to halt, rack to secondary. Bottle (or keg) with the brown sugar (primer) one week later.
