The problem is the yeast. Lallemand ESB doesn't ferment maltotriose. Getting that yeast to go lower than 1.030 is hard at the best of times, without a bunch of lactose too. Hit it with some US-04 or Notty to finish it up.
Hey HBT! Long time lurker, first time poster.
I've been loving Great Divide Hoss, and started itching to brew with some rye.
Here's what I'm toying with. I brew 2.5 gallons in an 5 gallon cooler mlt.
65% organic 2 row
15% rye malt
10% flaked rye
5% crystal 120L
5% victory
