Recipe with just Fuggles & EKG?

Post by mbrew » Fri May 12, 2017 12:05 pm

Hi,

I have some Fuggles & EKG I want to use up, are there any known good recipe's out there with just these two hops or do I really need to add something else?

What style of beer do you want to make? There plenty of recipes for bitters and stouts that use EKG and fuggles

I my last brew was fuggels bittering, goldings @30 challenger @10. Worked a treat. So going to swap it round this time with goldings @10 in a pale ale. Along the lines of summer lightning for GW book.

Should have said, pretty much anything that's not black would be good.

trust me brew up a couple of smash brews with MO and a target gravity circa 1036-1040 with a medium bitterness and as much late hopping as tickles your fancy, the results will be a couple of crisp golden ales that will quench a summer afternoons thirst without banging your head into the lawn too early.

Might give that a go if nothing else comes up, which one would you prefer yourself? What are the differences, I'd have thought Fuggles would be a bit strange on its own being earthy/grassy?

I'm quite new to this hence the recipe request so not up to designing my own, would appreciate some help with hop amounts & timings.

Not wasted on me, I was pretty sure they work together but couldn't find anything using just these two so your post wasn't much help!
