Did you add any additional fermentables?
Bauerbrewery1989 said:Wombatfarms- there is a complete 1g recipe on page 2 of this post. I think the only update would be the addition of more fermentables to raise the OG.
Fuzzymittenbrewery - You said you doubled everything for your 2 gal batch except the Brown sugar you used 1 lb. correct?? Do you think it will effect the flavor? I'm curious as to how it turns out.
Oh and The WLP001 I used was hungry so it came down to 1.004 ending up a whopping 8.4%abv. So definately be mindful of what yeast you use. But WLP001 is my go to for any experiments, its strong, clean and aggressive. That's why its part of my farm
I'm curious what your starting gravity?
I'm wondering because I attempted your version as a gallon batch for the added gravity but ended up using the whole pound instead of half! I ended up with about 1.065
I'm going to use nottingham though so I doubt I'll get that low.
Ever have non-sweetened root beer? Not very tasty. You could definatly try it, I'm not sure it would turn out very well though. You could use non-fermentables like Splenda too I guess, but I'd rather have a bottle blow up in my face then drink that stuff. Personal preference though.
