Just finished brewing my 4th beer. I decided to try a Wee Heavy Scotch Ale, with the hopes it will be in its prime around January or Febuary. I added ingrediants to a Scotch Ale Kit from Coopers. It should end up to be a 12% brew. I have bought some 7oz Coronita's (small corona's) to use to bottle this BIG beer. I have not been able to find any Wee Heavy's here, so I thought I would post my recipe and see what you all think of it.
Steep @ 150-160 for 20min
8oz Crystal 60L
1oz Roasted Barley
4oz Chocolate Malt
Boil for 60 min
3.5 Cooper Amber LME
5lb Laaglander Amber DME
3lb Laaglander Extra Light DME
Hops
1oz Kent Golding Pellets @ 5.7% for 60min
1oz Fuggle @ 3.3% for 60min
1/2oz Fuggle @ 3.3% for 20min
Add
1 Tsp Irish Moss @ 15min
6Tsp Yeast Neutrient
Yeast
White Labs WL028 Edinburgh Ale
What do you think?
Oh, thinking of bottling with the special de-oxygen caps(???) anyone used with any luck?
Cheers
