Notes

This time used Mash Hopping. Check zymurgy vol.24, No. 1, pg.45 for info on that. I made assumptions on what the boil time would be for the flavoring hops... Mashed w/ flavor hops & 1tsp Gypsum @ 152F for 120 Min. Sparged with 1.75 gal @ 175F Add Extract & Boil for 90 min. 60 min before end of Boil, added bittering hops. Chilled to 68F, Pitch Yeast, Aerate, Primary for 2 Weeks, Secondary for 2 Weeks. This recipe came from Brew Your Own Vol.7, No.2, Winners Circle, we modified the hops amounts to compensate for the Mash Hopping. Looking forward to tasting it!

Frustrating that one cannot save changes to a recipe after adding it to the library... see The Fools Tartan II for the actual recipe brewed.
