I am brewing a scotch ale this weekend and was hoping for some recipe comments/ideas so I don't blow it.
5.25 gallon batch
9.9 lbs. Munton's extra light LME
1/4 lbs C60
1/4 lbs C80
1/4 lbs C120
1/4 lbs special b
1/4 lbs carapils
1/4 lbs chocolate rye
1/4 lbs roasted barley
1-2 oz...
I am a week into fermenting an RIS with OG = 1.136. Pitched four packs of Wyeast Scottish Ale (1728) and blew the lid off my fermenter. That prompted me to do some more research and I found that 1728's tolerance is only 12%, attenuation 69-73%. Seems unlikely that I will get down to my target...
Hello all! Glad to be joining Homebrewtalk.com!
I've been home brewing for about 8 months now. I think I'm on my 6th or 7th batch right now. Most of my beers have been pretty good, but I'm looking for ways to make them better.
Cheers!
Mike
