This past saturday, a friend and I brewed the following beer:
Size: 5.41 gal
Original Gravity: 1.090
Color: 18.0
Bitterness: 72.2
Ingredients:
15 lbs Maris Otter Pale
3.0 lbs Belgian Biscuit
2.0 lbs Crystal Malt 40°L
1.0 oz Northern Brewer (8.0%) - added during boil, boiled 60.0 min
1.0 oz Northern Brewer (8.0%) - added during boil, boiled 45.0 min
1.0 oz Goldings (5.0%) - added during boil, boiled 30.0 min
1.0 oz Goldings (5.0%) - added during boil, boiled 15.0 min
1 ea White Labs WLP007 Dry English Ale
Schedule:
00:00:00 Mash In - Liquor: 6.25 gal; Strike: 157.7 °F
01:30:00 Saccharification Rest: 90.0 min @ 142F
01:35:00 Thin Decoction for Mashout - Volume: 2.93 gal; Boil: 5.0 min
01:50:00 Mash Out: 15 min; 170.0 °F
02:35:00 Sparge: 2.15 gal @ 170.0 °F, 6.0 gal collected, 45.0 min; Total Runoff: 6.0 gal
Would you consider this to be an English barleywine? Or does it fit another style better? This blew off a bunch of foam in a 25 liter carboy, so it started with quite a lot of fury! I just wonder how long this will take to reach terminal gravity. Comments welcome!
