As this is my first post I will just briefly make my excuses - I had a brief foray into kit brewing a couple of years ago, then on discovering Elder flowers in the garden this spring a bit of wine making has re-sparked my interest, resulting in a current stock of 5 gallons of wine of 3 types, and a further kit brew. I have decided however that I want to try my hand at all grain brewing, so have accumulated the kit I need to make my first brew.
I want to start simplish so I have opted to take a stab at a clone of Uley Old Spot using [url=viewtopic.php?p=72582#p72582]the recipe from the thread "Normans Real Ale Almanac Recipes" on here[/url] since its an ale local to me (when I'm home!) and its one that both I and SWMBO really enjoy!
However it appears to use two different copper hops and however hard I search I can't seem to find anywhere that tells me how to adjust the hop calculations to take into account the use of more than one type of hop - flicking through Graham Wheeler's book has given several other recipes that also use more than one copper hop, but again no guidance for adjusting the weight of hops is given (that I can see!)
As usual I am probably just making life hard for myself, but I don't want to start at a disadvantage! Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks very much
Tibbsey
PS has anyone used this or any other Old Spot recipe? Google has told me over and over again that ADDLED has because his signature flooded all results, may have to drop a PM
