DO you have it in BeerXML format you could post? I'll give it a whirl if I I can import it.

Why thank you kind sir! Making it again tomorrow if you would care to join.

As for a beer XML, nope, All of my notes are on scratch paper. I am thinking about getting some beer software other than the free trial stuff here in the next month or so. If I do I will post it for you.

I keyed it in and will attach. I have really enjoyed the milds I've made so far so I wanted to try yours.

Anyone who uses this pls doublecheck the .xml against the posted recipe as I am operating pre-coffee this AM.

Dang just bought a 50 lb bag of US 2row. Would the recipe change much if I used that instead of MO?

**Reverend JC** · 01-14-2009, 05:06 PM

Yes, it is such a light beer you need the extra character of the MO to really make it work.

With that being said you could always try to make up for the character with some more specialty grains.
