Ok, I'm doing a little research and development. I am making a brown ale and this is my first recipe.
7 lbs marris otter
1 lb Briess Caramel 40L
.5 lb simpsons chocolate
1 oz kent goldings 60 minutes
1 oz fuggles 10 minutes
Safale S-04 (Whitbread)
The first batch is in the primary and looks ok but a little dark. Im' thinking of reducing the chocolate to .25 lbs to lighten it up and maybe going with fuggles for bittering as well as aroma. I used a kit from northern brewer before and it had a kilo of brown sugar, I really want to try to avoid added sugar if I can. Does anyone have any additional input on this? Thanks in advance for the help!
