It's a specialty malt, and it's not fermentable. It's used for flavor and color.

AROMATIC malt is for flavor and color. That just seems strange to me. heheheh

O.K. guys, I think I'm going to try this one. However, I think my fermentation temps will be closer to 75F. Also, how much Notty should I use? Thanks - Dwain

75º is too high for most fermentation temps. Put your fermenter in a water bath. And what do you mean by 'how much nottingham'? Just use a packet, that's all you usually need.

Anyone think Pacman would be a good yeast for this?

EvilTOJ · 04-29-2009, 05:02 AM

I've used Pacman yeast for this a long time ago, and it worked out quite well..

so "aromatic" malt is for color and flavor....not for the smell of the finished beer? Huh....guess 'ya learn something new every day.

wow....pardon my sarcasm, I don't remember making the above post

So I'm brewing this today per the exact recipe! I'll be oaking it, and will post results in a couple months!

This is a house brew for me, except mine is 2-row & C120 only.

I brew it, I drink it, I brew some more.... just put a fresh keg into the kegorator when I got home this evening.

I had a friend who tried the real thing... and dumped it out!

He said he didn't care for it. I can't get it up here, so was miffed I didn't get to try it.

I've got three brews lined up, but I think I'm gonna put this in the lineup.

What if I split the batch and oaked half of it?
