Maris Otter Pale
Maris Otter Pale
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.

Crystal Malt 10°L
Sweet, mild caramel flavor and a golden color. Use in light lagers and light ales. Characteristics & Applications: • In contract to Brewers Malt, glassiness is a distinguishing characteristic of Caramel Malt. The glassy endosperm creates the desirable non-fermentable components giving true Caramel Malt the ability to contribute body (mouthfeel), foam foam retention, and extended beer stability, while contributing color and unique caramel flavor. • Caramel 10L is a roasted caramel malt that imparts golden color. • Use 3-7% for Pilsener-style beers for balance. • Use 5-15% to provide color, sweetness and color to light amber beers. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.

Everything went well with this recipe so far. I brewed at night which I think I will not do again. I just don't have enough outdoor lighting. The OG was a little lower than I wanted but it was still in style. I guess I am still having issues getting a consistant conversion. The beer looked good. It is hard to tell at this point how "Red" it is but I did make the mistake of leaving out the 120L so we will see what it looks like after kegging.

I'm not seeing a mash temperature in the recipe. Any suggestions?

I have since changed the recipe a bit but I forget the 120 when I made it last and that was a mistatke! I also got poor efficiency but those issues have been fixed. I hope you enjoy this recipe. Do the 150 mash for a drier beer, that's important.

I just brewed this one again. I mashed in at 148F and attenuated down to 1.007, 3 points out of style. I wanted it dry but not out of style so I wouldn't go lower than 150F in the future.
