Here's my recipe too
Great work getting the comp up and running :thumb:
Here's to many more :drink:
I'd been wanting to make a 'traditional' IPA for a while and the comp seemed like a good excuse.
The simple recipe was based on Martyn Cornell's blog post about a collaborative brew he did with Brains: http://zythophile.co.uk/2012/06/17/how-i-brewed-my-own-ipa-at-brains/
I brewed this back on 31st July as I wanted it to have decent maturing time (although not as long as a real 19th Century IPA would have done)
Colonel Cornell's East India Pale Ale
24L batch
OG 1.056
FG 1.007
6.5% ABV
50ish IBUs
Maris Otter - 6kg
Black malt - 20g
Mash @ 65C
60mins: EKG 80g
10mins: EKG 60g
Dry hop in FV when yeast pitched (for a more aged dry hop flavour): EKG 50g
1pk Notty + 1pk MJ west coast ale yeast, fermented at 17C, rising to 20C to finish
That was meant to be it, but I got worried that there might not being any hop flavour/aroma left by comp time, so chucked another 50g EKG pellets in 2ndry for the last 5 days before bottling.
