Would you kindly give me some idea about whether this recipe will work? I was reading about the style on the BeerSmith recipe site, and built it around that.
Windyedge 70/- Scottish Ale
8lbs Pale Malt (2-Row) UK
12oz Crystal Malt (40L)
8oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine
4oz Roasted Barley
1oz Fuggles (60 min)
Wyeast 1728 (Scottish Ale)
Single infusion mash at 152, mash out at 168. Ferment 21 days at 55F.
According to BeerSmith, I should expect an OG of 1.038, 17.2 IBUs, and an ABV of 3.2%, all of which supposedly fall within the style parameters.
As for the fermentation temp, I know that's awfully low for an ale, but I'm given to understand that 1728 works that low. I can adjust it as needed, though.
What are your thoughts?
