Notes
Recipe from Gordon Strong featured in BeerSmith Podcast 39
Mash Maris Otter and Munich malts
Add Brown, Crystal and Chocolate malts during mash out (recirculation) NOT DURING MASH
Use UK crystal not US
I used Thos Fawcett Maris Otter
Treat all water with phosphoric to hit about pH 5.2
Add 1 tsp CaCl2 to mash
Add 1/2 tsp CaCl2 to boil
Batch sparge
20 min whirlpool (turn off heat, stir, let settle)
Looks good, but not accurate
by ricardodomicianoBrown malt comes in at mash, not Vorlauf (you can confirm this in Gordon's book). I brewed following these steps, and both OG and color was below expected, so I had to adjust it with DME and Carafa Special 3. Next time I'll mash in brown malt and add only crystal and chocolate at vorlauf. It's a promising recipe anyway!
