Just brewed an ale of basically my own recipe in the style of a strong english special bitter to the following recipe:-
MO pale malt 3.900kg
Crystal malt 150g :thumb: :rofl: (I love Crystal Malt)
Black malt 35g
Dark brown sygar 350g (never used this befor) any coments? :wha:
Hops (what I had in ther freezer)
Northern brewer 7.9AA 50g for 75 mins of the boil
Cascade 5.8AA post boil
Irisgh moss 10 minutes
Yeast:- recultured from a bottle of Brakspear Tripple :wha: (again first time iv done this) :wha:
I ended up with 23 litres in the fermenter with an OG of 1.052 :party: assuming it ferments out I intend to transfer to secondary after 7 days & leave for about 3 weeks to settle out befor bottling. :wha:
I was wandering if anyone had any coments or ways I could improve on this recipe as its my first attempt at a propper english ale.
