I'm working on a recipe that I'll brew later this week and I'll be using Marris Otter for the first time. My plan is for a big IPA using a 50/50 blend of U.S. pale malt and the maris otter for the base. From what I've read maris otter has slightly more "body" than normal pale malt, and thats what I'm looking for. Heres the tentative recipe for a 3 gal batch:
5lb Pale Malt
5lb Maris Otter
.5lb carapils
.5lb 50l
.5lb sugar? (I threw that in at the last minute)
A bunch of centennial, amarillo, and simcoe
California V yeast
I'm hoping for a more full bodied IPA. My beers normally seem "thin" to me, and I'm hoping to change that.
