Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
I'm just finishing up a batch of Best Bitter. I fiddled with a recipe I found on line. I want this to be an "authentic" Bitter. Here's the recipe I made:
3.3 lbs Light LME
3 lbs Munton & Fisson Light DME
Mini mash:
1 lbs Maris Otter
1 lb Crystal 40
.5 lbs Oat Malt
1 oz Challenger - 60 mins
1 oz UK Fuggles - 20 mins
1 oz Kent Goldings - 5 mins
1/2 teaspoon Burton salts
1 Whirlflock tablet
Wyeast British II 1335
The calculator on BYO says this should clock in at 4.7% abv, 35 IBU's, and a color of 14.7 SRM. But I messed up somewhere, because the OG = 1.056. BYO's calculator says it should have had an OG of 1.049. So I'm either going to have a higher abv, or a sweeter beer. Any ideas where I might have gone wrong?
