Hi chaps,
Did my second AG brew recently - a clone of Thornbridge's Lord Marples Classic bitter that I worked out from a few sources. Had a first try (admittedly only a week into warm conditioning
) and it had a lovely clean flavour, but a bit 'thin'.
I'm looking for a rounder, maltier (dare I say, sweeter) balance against the hops, but don't know how to do this. I thought about increasing the grain bill, but would this not just increase the strength? Does anyone use lactose or other non-ferment able 'sweeteners'?
