I got retarded low effeciency brewing this today. 1.070!! BP can you please post details on your process for this? I mashed in all the grains at 148 for 90 minutes with 5 gallons of water. Then sparged with 180 degree water (batch sparge). I'm a mega noob to AG and would like some more advise on your recipe. Thanks!

Did you just do one batch sparge?? You will need multiple batch sparges to rinse all sugars. Divide your total water needed into 2-3 equal sparges.

I have a similiar version brewin now... I replaced the maple sugar with wildflower honey and removed a little of the 80L to lighten it up a bit. Boiling now... I went with 1.5oz Chinook leaf @ 120min, 1oz Centennial pellet @ 45min, 2oz Amarillo leaf @ 10min, 2oz Cascade pellet @ 0min. We'll see!

Sounds tasty. I will be interested in how the honey works out. The hops look like a nice combo too.

Probably a stupid question, but how are you guys accounting for the 1.5 lbs of maple syrup? I'm sure I can get a rough conversion if I google it, but about how many fluid ounces does that come out to?

edit: Found somewhere that said a cup of syrup is ~11 oz. This sound reasonable?

The recipe calls for Crystal 55L Great Britain and Crystal 90L America. Those 2 items are not listed in Beersmith.

Crystal 80L US is listed. Can I use that?

Also what would be a substitute for the Crystal 55L UK?

Thanks.

Man! I pitched onto a US-05 cake from a smaller blonde and it finished out at 1.012!

I did miss my OG (1.086ish) by a decent margin, but the sample tastes fantastic after only 2 weeks! The bitterness was surprisingly smooth and there's just a hint of maple syrup lingering in the background to add some complexity. Man this stuff is honestly drinkable as is! It's going to be hard to keep my grubby paws off this!
