Steep the crushed grains in approximately 2.5 gallons (9.5 L)of water at 155° (68° C)for 30 minutes.  Remove the grains from the wort.  Bring the wort up to a boil, and add 0.5 lbs (.22 kg) of the light dry malt extract.  Now add your Nugget hops and first addition of Centennial hops and boil these hops for 60 minutes.  30 minutes into the boil, add your second addition of Centennial hops and irish moss.  Add the 6.6 pounds (3 kg) of liquid malt extract for the last 5 minutes of the boil and stir to thoroughly mix in the beer and avoid scorching the malt extract to the bottom of your kettle.  At the end of your 60 minute boil turn your heat off, and add your 1 pound (.45 kg) of fresh hops.  Stir the fresh hops into the beer for 5 minutes.  Add the wort to about 2 gallons (9 L) of cold water in your sanitized fermenter, and top up to 5.25 (19.75 L) gallons.

Cool the wort to 78° and add your yeast.  Aerate your beer, and ferment the beer at 68° until fermentation is complete.

Add the 2nd addition of Centennial hops and irish moss for the last 30 minutes of the boil. Turn off your burner, and now steep your 1 lb (.45 kg) of fresh hops for 5 minutes, then cool your beer, fill your fermenter and ferment at 68° (20 ° C) until fermentation is complete.
