I finished the brewday a few hours ago, and I'm pretty satisfied with the results. There was a little hiccup at the end, but it ended up being a blessing.
I forgot that I had intended to use brown sugar in the beer, so when I came up a quart and a half short, I was able to boil up the water and 1.6 oz of dark brown sugar, and add it to the gallon jug. That way, I ended up with a gallon of beer at an original gravity of 1.061.
The recipe was:
-2 pounds Maris Otter
-.15 pounds Chocolate Malt
-.05 pounds Black Patent
-.1 pounds Flaked Barley
-.1 pounds Dark Brown Sugar
-5.5g Safale US-04
In two weeks, I'll bottle, and two weeks after that, I'll try it.
In the meantime, I'll be drinking...you know, to get ideas for more experiments.
