rigwelter

[beer]

hello all
hoping to do a riggwelter for my next brew ag no 3 it calls for 1 gram of roast barley as i dont quite know my arse from my elbow yet could this be a typo im sure not.the recepie is from norms almanac
can any body inform me what 1 gram of this will give to it

It's gotta be a typo, as 1g Roast Barley would be like a drop in the ocean.... Have you seen the recipe for Riggwelter in GWs book? I did it for my first AG and it was really successful... that one doesn't use Roast Barley, although I can see where it could come in... probs 100g or so

hi there must be 100 grams not got round to getting gw s book yet. if any one can give any improvement to the recipe as it appears in norms list above that would be greatfully received.

I cant remember the recipe the brewer gives exactly, but i know it has no roast barley in it. Its a mix of pale malt torrified wheat and pale chocolate

I'm thinking of brewing this for the Autumn... just need to get some of that Yorkshire yeast.

yorkshire yeast sounds a bit advanced for me at the mo just going to lob in some so4 and see what happens .
going to call this riggwelter ish

I have heard some rumors that Wyeast is doing the Tim Taylor yeast again this fall.

I can't say for sure this is 100% accurate but I listened to this podcast farily recently.

S. G. 1056
Marris Otter 80%
Crystal Malt 6% (I don't recall the EBC or SRM)
Pale chocolate 5%
torrified wheat 9%

IBUs 35 with bittering being a blendn of Progress and Challenger and those in the hopback being Goldings.
Mash was 66C

Jamil suggested the seasonal yeast from Wyeast 1469 West Yorkshire yeast. I suspect somebody could give you a Brew Labs alternative.

I re-listened to the podcast yesterday and made notes. Your quantities are spot on.
The Crystal was 120EBC.

For the 6 USA gallon recipe (22.7Litres) the hops were:
60 minutes Challenger 7.5%AA 35g 36.9IBU
0 minutes EKG 4.75%AA 24.5g

Definitely on my to brew list!
