Robust Smoked Porter

Note: Recipes involving Rauch malt are suggested for all-grain or partial mash only. The amount of Ruach malt needed for a noticable flavor means a lot fo starch needs to be converted, and liquid Rauch malt extract is quite a rare find in most homebrew shops. However, considering Rauch malt has enough diastatic power to convert itself, partial mash is relatively easy.
