    For this batch I boiled the majority of the hops per the schedule, but I reserved a small portion of the Fuggles and KG hops and dryhopped them in the primary after the krausen fell. It was maybe 4-5 pellets of each.

    What was the measured FG? If it was in the mid-to-high teens, I can see why it tastes malty.

    FG was 1.019 for that batch. That was with Windsor, so it was actually on target attenuation-wise, but yeah - the first thing I switched was to use Nottingham in the next batch, and I knocked down the crystal fraction of the bill. That batch just went into bottle so I'll know in a few weeks how things worked out.
