More Recipes Wanted

[Uncle Joshua]

I wondered if anyone could bash up a couple of (or three) good recipes with this lot..

Pale Malt loads
Torrified Wheat 359g
Crystal Malt 332g


Bramling 9g

Stella Hop 40g
Citra 37g
Golding 24g

Progress 56g
Challenger 106g
Target 7g
Magnum 57g
Summer 10g
Northdown 100g

Household white sugar 1kg
Yeast

Gervin English Ale
Safale US -05
Safale S -04


I don't want anything above 4% and could do with enough left over to make a third brew before spending more money.

[Zephiacus]

I would go for a Hoppy Pale ale, with pale malt and all the torrie wheat, hopped with magnum, citra and mabye summer/stella using US-05. And then use up all the crystal with pale malt to make an english style pale/bitter with challenger to bitter and fuggles goldings and bramling for the aroma going with S-04 or Gervin. Then go for a all pae malt pale ale with whatever hops you have left....

[Uncle Joshua]

Ahh, Fuggles should not be there.

I would not mind getting the Magnum used up.

What is your boil time on that Seymour?

[seymour]

I'd boil 60 minutes, because I don't think it makes a difference, but some would insist 90 is more authentic.

P.S. Did you know the official name of your "Stella" hops has been changed to "Ella" because of a lawsuit by Stella Artois? Silly, huh?

I'm going to brew this one tomorrow.

[dreadskin69]

Agreed. Looks great, but can't get citra for the life of me. Would it work with galaxy? Might be worth a shot. How much more pale would you add to get it up to 5%?

[Uncle Joshua]

Would Amarillo be a good sub? Pale Malt 5070g and 158g Oats would give you 5%.

[Uncle Joshua]

Seymour Citra Gold is sat in my FV.

I'm hoping to get another brew on in a few days.

[dreadskin69]

Gonna do this in two weeks

[seymour]

Of course. Any bold, citrusy hop will work just as well, including English varieties such as First Gold. Citra is very nice, but I specified it because he already had it. Galaxy is phenomenal as a late hop. Amarillo, as he said, is great too.

Seymour Citra Gold is sat in my FV...

Excellent, I can't wait to hear how it turned out.

Gonna do this in two weeks

Great! But don't be expecting it to taste nearly as good as your Corona, now.

#1 of 3: SEYMOUR - MORRELLS VARSITY BITTER CLONE

This is now sat in my FV.

Sadly, I miss counted and don't have the Styrian Goldings for the SEYMOUR ENGLISH SMaTH BITTER.
