hows about this. It's basically the recipe for Saltaire brewery Goldings ale. They put the % grist, OG and hop varieties on the back of their bottles. The % and OG are accurate, the IBU's I made up myself. Hope you like it.

Saltaire; Good how you can get the basic grain percentages etc off the bottle with the OG

They do some decent brews, I like their cascade pale ale. Saltaire Wines on Gordon Terrace (A650) usually has their range in.

It is defo one of my Saltaire favs. Their hazelnut coffee porter is fantastic. I can't say no when I see that on the pump clip.

Kev, you could do a lot worse than Saltaire Goldings Ale. It's a great brew to try your Vienna Malt out. They knock out consistently great beers. I was hooked on the Fuggles Bitter for ages and the Cascade Pale is superb. Google them and have a look.

LOOKS GOOD MAN. Sorry for the late reply I've been on nights. I have done it awhile ago and it was wicked. The BX and SG should give it a nice twist. Let us know how you get on. When's the brewday?

[kevthebootboy]

yeah no worrys mate,

if all go's to plan ill be brew this bad boy up on saturday morning,
turns out bramling cross hops are a replacment for East Kent Goldings witch is a replacement for the original First Gold used in the recipe, so thats sort of close,
im culturing some Brakspear yeast for saturday but if that doesnt work out ill be using S-04 instead,
looking forward to it now, just hope the weathers going to be alright!

cheers!

kev

[kevthebootboy]

all done, 23 litres in the bucket, OG 1.052
had a stinking hangover, tasted great going onto the fermenter, really looking forward to this one.
thanks for the advice fella

[leedsbrew]

wicked mate! Did you use the Brakspear yeast or S-04?

[kevthebootboy]

i used the brakspear yeast, oh and for some reason id wrote down in my recipe book 70 grams of BX when i needed 60 grams, so the IBU is 46 insted of 40 but it worked out better because the OG was higher then planned, im thinking now, maybe i should have watered it down to 25 litres to even the IBU and the gravity, of well, live and learn eh...
