I'm planning on brewing a barleywine on 12-21-12. This is the recipe.
20# Maris Otter
.75# C 80
7oz Acid Malt (PH adjustment)
3 oz Black Patent
1# D-90 Candi Syrup (Added 2 days after pitching yeast)
2 oz Horizon @ 60
Mash @ 154
Wyeast 9097 Old Ale Blend
I plan on boiling for 120 min.
I also plan on following Ajdelange Water Chem Primer: So i'll add 4g Gypsum and 3.5g of Calcium Chloride per 5 gallons of water
I'm thinking of making a 1.035 - 1.040 mild as a started beer to grow this yeast up....
Thoughts?
