Glad to post it. BTW is there a recipe database I can enter it into?
So this isn't a traditional Sahti recipe but here we go:
5# US 2-row
2# Rye Malt
1# Munich Malt
0.75# Crystal 120L
0.5oz Cascade (6.9%) 60min
0.25oz Juniper Berries 60min
0.25oz Juniper Berries 15min
0.25oz Grains of Paradise 5min
1.5L starter of Wyeast 1272 Am. Ale II
However, these are the two most important steps to making Sahti:
1) Boil your juniper branches (I collect about a backpack full) in your mash liquor before hand. 15 minutes should do it. Your house/patio/garage will smell amazing.
2) Lauter wort from mash through fresh juniper branches.
