Does anyone have any experience with the relatively new Maris Otter LME from Northern Brewer? I'm curious what your perception of its fermentability is. This will be my first time using it and I'm trying to decide if I put a little sugar in to help get the FG around 1.010-1.012. I expect it to finish a little higher, just not sure if it is enough to make a difference. NB's website says "excellent fermentability" but there's a review saying the opposite.
I'm planning two brews with this MO LME, both SMASH recipes, one with Simcoe and the other with Columbus. The OG will be 1.054 and I'll use Nottingham, oxygenated with pure O2 and fermented in the low 60's. I've had no trouble getting 80%-plus attenuation out of similar recipes, just want to finish closer to 1.010 instead of 1.015 if I can help it.
