Brewer: CP Email: -
Beer: - Style: English Old/Strong Ale
Type: Extract w/grain Size: 5 gallons
Color: 17 HCU (~11 SRM) Bitterness: 39 IBU
OG: 1.077 FG: 1.012
Alcohol: 8.4% v/v (6.6% w/w)
Grain: 4 oz. British pale
4 oz. British Munich
4 oz. British Carastan light
4 oz. British crystal 50-60L
Boil: 60 minutes SG 1.111 3.5 gallons
3 lb. Light malt extract
5 lb. Light dry malt extract
1 lb. Amber malt extract
Hops: 1 oz. Northern Brewer (8.5% AA, 60 min.)
1 oz. Cascade (6% AA, 45 min.)
1 oz. Kent Goldings (5% AA, 30 min.)
.5 oz. Cascade (6% AA, 15 min.)
.5 oz. Cascade (aroma)
I am not 100% sure about the hop schedule, does anybody have any experience with a british strong that could help? I really like cascade hops, but they may not add enough to the bitterness?
I was thinking about pitching two 6 gram packs of rehydrated coopers ale yeast. The logical choice would be a notty, but I am not going near that stuff!
