Ingredients (All Grain5.5 gal)

  • 12 lbs Maris Otter;Crisp

    Maris Otter;Crisp

    An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.

  • .5 lbs Crystal 55;Bairds Malt

    Crystal 55;Bairds Malt

    Crystal or Caramel malts have a distinctive toffee flavour, which becomes more intense as colour is increased, and at the higher end of the colour range burnt or roasted malt flavours may begin to appear. Traditionally in the UK, Crystal malt of colour 70 -80 °ASBC has been used at about 5% of the grist to give the characteristic colour and flavour of UK Bitters and Pale Ales. Adjustment of the amount and/or colour of the Crystal malt may brew some very distinctive beers, but this may require some careful experimentation. Crystal malts have been used in the brewing of Lager beers, but considerable care is required to ensure that whilst a distinctive flavour is achieved, the crystal flavour and colour does not become too dominant. In all beers they can help prevent the formation of oxidised (cardboard) flavours.

  • .3125 lbs Special B Malt;Castle Malting

    Oats Flaked

    Belgian White Ale(wit), other specialty beers.

  • .5 oz Magnum -13.1 AA% pellets; boiled 60 min

    Magnum

    A West Coast hop with high Alpha Acid. Excellent bittering hop.

  • .25lb Raisins -soaked in rum added to secondary (omitted from calculations)

    Raisins

    Dried grapes. Has a sweet prune like flavor. California discovered the commercial potential of raisins quite by accident. In 1873, a freak hot spell withered the grapes on the vine. One enterprising San Francisco grocer advertised these shriveled grapes as "Peruvian Delicacies" and the rest is history. California is now the world's leading producer of raisins.

  • Wyeast1469-PCWest Yorkshire Ale

    Wyeast1469-PCWest Yorkshire Ale

    This strain produces ales with a full chewy malt flavor and character, but finishes dry, producing famously balanced beers. Expect moderate nutty and stone-fruit esters. Best used for the production of cask-conditioned bitters, ESB and mild ales. Reliably flocculent, producing bright beer without filtration.

Notes

+ Mash at 140F for 30 minutes + Raise to 153F for 30 minutes + Other possible additions to secondary: --> .25 oz powdered ginger; --> 2 cinnamon sticks --> Vanilla & other spice extracts as desired.
