Procedure:

Slice ginger and lemons and add to 2.25 - 2.5 gallons of water, steep for 12 - 24 hours until ginger flavor is extracted. Collect wort.

Bring wort to boil and add sorghum syrup, achieve hot break, add hops and additional ingredients according to schedule.

After flameout allow wort to steep until temperature has returned to approximately room temperature.

Add one gallon of juice to carboy, pitch yeast nutrient and add wort (straining out hops and other ingredients). Add remaining juice to achieve approximately 6+ gallons.

Aerate and pitch yeast.

Carboy may blow over, so do not top off. May need to run hose to secondary container to function as airlock.
