Hello there,
I'm looking to brew an ESB
Ingredients:
6.6 lb Liquid Light Extract
2.5 lb British Crystal 55°L
1.0 oz Challenger (8.0%) - added during boil, boiled 30 min
1.0 oz Challenger (8.0%) - added during boil, boiled 15 min
1.0 oz Goldings (5.0%) - added during boil, boiled 5 min
1.0 tsp Irish Moss - added during boil, boiled 5.0 min
1.0 tsp Wyeast Nutrient
1.0 ea WYeast 1968 London ESB Ale
Questions are...
1. I usually buy the bulk LME from the shop. Is there a significant taste difference if I buy a can like Muntons (since it comes from the proper region)
2. Is all crystal malt "British". And if not, again is there a taste difference?
3. I picked the 1968 Yeast.... any other suggestions?
thx
