Today, I shall mostly be making a Timothy Taylors Landlord :)

The recipe will be coming from the Graham Wheeler book.
12 litre brew length in my 15L mash tun with just a couple of additions to the recipe:
2% Crystal
10g Bobek @ Zero Minutes
Caramelise the first 2L runnings.
Apparently the Taylors spring water comes from Limestone country in the Yorkshire dales so I've added some Calcium Carbonate to the mash along with Gypsum

The Grain, Chalk and Gypsum:

Mashed in @ 66.8 C:

pH is around about right, maybe a little low:

Hops prepared and Stacked in order of use, water treatment and a little yeast nutrient and Protafloc tablets:

These are looking good :)

Mash finished at 65 C, ran over 15mins to 105 minute mash:

Recirculating the first couple of litres:

First Batch Sparge, the big jug in the back ground has the 2 litres for caramelisation, second batch sparge stuck and took some prodding to get it to run off, I might sack the False bottom and make a copper manifold:

First Wort Hops (FWH) and water treatments:

Anyone for Toffee?? This stuff tastes yummy! This was added back to the boiler:

Pitching Whitelabs Edinburgh Ale yeast, 1 litre starter from a tube I'm splitting:

Round about right, give or take the odd point or two, which means my volumes were pretty much on target:

Not a bad one, breakfast and lunch had amongst it, the caramelisation took about 90 mins so that has slowed me down a touch, wort tastes pretty good with a good kick of Styrians (Bobek).
 
This is fermenting away nicely this morning with a thick sticky yeast head :)
 
I'd like to try caremelising wort, look forward to hearing what you think of it.

Great post :clap:
 
Looks like a good brewday, The wort caramilisation time of 90 min ouch. Also the holders for your chiller looks like a great ideakeeping it all in place. Must have taken ages to build.
 
I'm keeping an eye on this Franklin.
I'm rapidly approaching my first AG and have picked the very same Wheeler recipe.
I'm a massive Landlord fan and will be very interested to see how your brew turns out.

Hope it works well for you :thumb:
