You could change the dextrose for grain I didn't have enough grains, and maybe change the yeast to s-04

Thank you, does that nice red hue come from the little bit of Carafa III, I haven't used that one yet
 
I keep seeing references to @foxbat bitter do you have a copy of your latest recipe? I might have to give it a go.

Did you hit your OG and FG's?
 
Foxbat seems top have several bitters. This is the one I brewed, which he calls "Mainline" it's much darker than the one shown above and reminds of a beer I had once in Cornwall with a picture of a pirate ship on the label. It might have been Wooden Hand, but not sure. Anyway it was very nice and Mainline even better.
You either forgot the link or are really keeping us in suspense.
 
I have a witbier that has just finished og 1049 I hit 1050 fg is 1010 it should be 1012 so not bad, but I strayed away from notty and us-05, used mangroves jacks m21 athumb.. that is after 7 days but it has been that for 2 days I moved to shed to crash for a few days temp is 14c
 
No og was 1045 fg was 1006 but that could be down to Gervin acheers. 5.12%abv but it was good honest

I'm not doubting you :hat:86% attenuation. A dry northern style bitter. It would have been a combination of the brewing sugar and notty/gervin. I prefer something a bit more malty myself. Made a bitter yesterday. I used 10% golden syrup, but so It didnt dry out too much I used Mangove Jacks Empire ale yeast. It's a lower attenuator (around 65% I think) but with the GS I'm expecting about 72%

You are right it was dry, I only used the t&s as I had nothing else at the time, I bought some gs the other day then my mrs found some in the cupboard so I now have about 800ml what % do you use in your bitters

10%. I made some the other day. It's really easy, loads of you tube vids on doing it. I plan on adding some bread to my next bitter in place of some grain
