Making a Hobgobllin (recipe copied from a thread) to see if there is a difference as i made this as an extract. Or i would have liked to have done a pepsi challenge with this but already ive cocked it up with the hoppage.
I should be using carapils but have none. What difference does it make in a brew? Is it noticeable if not there?
Added some terrified wheat for head retention even though it isn't in the recipe i copied.
Ive upped the amount of hops as im only doing a 60 min boil. I promised SWO's i wouldn't brew, as she cleaned the kitchen this morning. So i'm on a time limit. She'll smell the hops throughout the house but i'll deny all knowledge about it.
Thought i had some Progress hops but it turned out to be Northdown. Dunno how i confused the 2. So lobbed extra Fuggles in.
