Somewhat Mild Mannered Stout

I've been lurking HBT for years now and decided that I'd share what I've currently got in the carboy. I'll update as things progress.

Having received a corny keg for my birthday late last month, I decided to have a go at an English Mild, specifically Orfy's Mild Mannered Ale. Furthermore, I decided to try no-chill and to keg it to share with friends at an upcoming event. However, as often seems the case in my brewing experiences, several things went "wrong", so, I had to improvise. Here's the list:

• Unable to get a hold of Maris Otter in time to brew
• Brew Calculus only goes up to 177°L, leading to my formulating a darker recipe than intended (next time I'm going back to doing calculations by hand)
• Sustained power outage beginning 5 min from intended flame-out (electric burner) and lasting 4 days. This lead to higher than expected wort losses during transfer (candle-light) and low fermentation temperatures.

Here's the recipe that I formulated for this brew copied off of Brew Calculus:

SG @ 1 wk: 1.028

FG: 1.018

Kegged and served after yeast flocced out (like cottage cheese!). A bit under-attenuated but with very malty and complex flavor character. Subtle malt character and while black, definitely the clearest beer I've ever brewed (will update with picture later today).

Over all, I'm quite pleased with the performance of my 5 gal mash tun on its maiden brewage. I'll definitely make it again, hopefully without dropping below fermentation temp this time.

Also, I think I will try blending it in glass with some of my soured pumpkin ale.

EDIT: Attached is the picture as promised. It's too dark to see through but when in smaller volumes, its clarity is astounding. The relatively small amount of trub has made me a whole hop convert.
