All grain brewday number 6 on the 19th May - and that’s it for that sack of pale malt! I had almost exactly 3.5kg left over and decided to go for the following recipe (which is pretty much like Norm’s Real Ale Almanac version of Beartown Bearskinful but with a slight alteration on the malt and hops):

30ml CRS (32L liquor), 1 1/2 tsp gypsum, 1/2 tsp Epsom Salts

3.5kg Maris Otter
210g Crystal
450g Wheat Malt

Mash at 66C for 75min.

50g CHALLENGER 5.6% 75min (~30IBU)
15g STYRIANS 3.9% 15min
20g STYRIANS 3.9% 2min

Irish Moss 15min
Yeast S-04

All went quite smoothly, landed up with 22L @ 1038 - all wrapped up in the FV and 24 hours later a nice krausen developing. Piccies below…
