Pop round at Christmas

One hell of a pop to Dublin!

looks like it went well. mine is down from 1060 to 1018 in 5 days and tasting very nice from the fermenter, i don't think it'll last 4 months.

Yes I know that feeling

This is maby a best top3 recipe. I brew it and let it mature 4 months. Whhoowo, the Durden's recipe is damn good.
I bre mine with the wyeast 1028.


How do had made your rown malt, in your oven? Do you step the pale ale malt 1 hours before or you made it with dry grains?

Dom

I just brewed it like ever other beers i brew, signal infusion 60 minutes sacchrification rest, last 10 minutes add the volume absorbed by the grain at 85-90c for mash out and sparge

yep, my question is only about the brown malt. Do you buy it or do you make it yourself?

Ah, sorry I bought it in

Thx. And let us know how it turn.
You're lucky, in Switzerland there is no shop who sell brown malt... I must do it by myself in my oven. It take a lot of time.

The gravity was down to around 1.018
