This is the last 1 can kit I have from a recent splurge in the Tescos sale and I want to do a partial mash with it, aiming for a nice strong traditional style IPA something like a Marstons Old Empire, as such will be brewing short to 18L to the following recipe
1.8kg JB IPA
1.6kg Maris Otter
0.2kg Crystal 40
Should give
1.053
1.010
5.7%
I am not sure on the hops at the moment, no indication of IBU for the kit so not sure whether to add any bittering or not, I have EKG, First Gold, Challenger, Fuggles and Admiral in terms of English hops and could also mix it up with some American hops perhaps. Any suggestions for a hop schedule/combination for this type of beer? :wha: Quite fancy having the First Gold involved in some way as I keep noticing Darth Clibitus saying its a great hop ;-)
