Ok, I need everyones opinion on this. I have been messing with this recipe so much I think I should just stop with the questions and brew the damn thing!
Here is my recipe:
OG 1.065
FG 1.020
COLOR 55* SRM
Mash Efficiency 75%
30.4 IBUs
6.0% ABV
----------------------------------------
6.6 lbs. Light DME
1.25 lbs. British Brown 70L
1.25 lbs. Chocolate malt
0.25 lbs. Black Patent
0.25 lbs. Crystal 120L
0.25 lbs. Caramel malt 80L
0.25 lbs. Caramel malt 40L
0.25 lbs. Victory
0.25 lbs. Special B
0.25 lbs. Biscuit Malt
1.50 oz. East Kent Goldings @ 60 minutes
1.50 oz. East Kent Goldings @ 15 minutes
2 oz. East Kent Goldings @ 5 minutes
1 oz. Willamette @ 1 minute
Wyeast 1968 London ESB Ale
Steep Grains @ 156F for 45 minutes.
I just want to know a few things:
Do all my numbers look ok? My FG, My IBUs, etc...
How does my hop schedule look?
any opinions on using this yeast in porters? (I've read nothing but awesome things).
I'm getting pretty tired of analyzing this recipe. I hope to brew this soon. Just want to double check everything before I drop all the money for these ingredients!
My favorite porters are:
Olfabrikken Porter
Bell's Porter
Founder's porter
If it helps any, I don't like super bitter porters. I would greatly appreciate any info/comments. Thanks for your time!
