I have the beer 365 calender that Papazian put together, and on Sundays the include a recipe (usually extract with grains.)
I was reading the one for this weekend. Marston's ESB Clone.
It's ESB Malt.
And it has a grain I've never heard of...Searching here I found it listed on one recipe, but no discussions on it.
Using the google it turns out it's NOT Extra Special Bitter Malt, like I thought but evidently Extra Special BRITISH Malt.
The scant info I can find is;
Anyone here use it?
Does anyone know a sub for it?
Is this just another version of Marris Otter (it's got such a low lovibond, I'm wondering if it's a base malt?
I have also seen a couple papa charlie ESB recipes that he used Aromatic Malt...is THAT a sub?
The recipe looks interesting...
4 oz Honey Malt
4 oz ESB Malt
1lb Med. Crystal
7lb Light LME
1 3/4 oz EKG's @ 60
1oz EKG @ 20
1oz fuggles @ 2
English Ale Yeast.
It sounds cool...I was thinking of converting this to AG, or PM and getting rid of the LME either way.
Thanks gang!!
