Here's my recipe, borrowed and modified form Jamil' Z (I'm going to add a few bourbon soaked oak-chips to half the batch):
two questions:
what would be a good dry yeast for this beer?
Would it be better to mash at a moderately high temp to keep a bit of sweetness (like 154-155F)
Amount Item Type % or IBU
10.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 80.0 %
1.00 lb Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) Grain 8.0 %
0.75 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 80L (80.0 SRM) Grain 6.0 %
0.50 lb Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) Grain 4.0 %
0.25 lb Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM) Grain 2.0 %
1.50 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.00%] (60 min) Hops 25.1 IBU
1.00 lb Milk Sugar (Lactose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar 0.0 %
Est Original Gravity: 1.061 SG
Measured Original Gravity: 1.010 SG
Est Final Gravity: 1.016 SG Measured Final Gravity: 1.005 SG
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 5.9 % Actual Alcohol by Vol: 0.6 %
Bitterness: 25.1 IBU Calories: 43 cal/pint
Est Color: 49.7 SRM Color: Color
thanks!
