Since my Oatmeal stout is finished I made an amber ale. Starting gravity of 1.040

Changed the recipe a bit and used 15g each of Goldings and Fuggles hops for aroma. Also added a small bit of sugar to bring the gravity up.

4.70 kg Pale Malt (2 Row) UK (3.0 SRM) Grain 92.2 %
0.25 kg Amber Malt (22.0 SRM) Grain 4.9 %
0.15 kg Wheat, Torrified (1.7 SRM) Grain 2.9 %
40.00 gm Target [11.00%] (60 min) Hops 44.3 IBU

15.00 gm Goldings, East Kent [8.30%] (10 min) (AroHops -
1 Pkgs SafAle English Ale (DCL Yeast #S-04) Yeast-Ale

Unfortunatly no....I'll just let it overflow, like the Oatmeal Stout.

Gotta get another Oatmeal Stout made, it was excellent!

 

[ChrisG]

Well id didnt overflow but was close.

Hahaha quite a good trick to get rid of the crud on the top of the wort.....let it stick to the underside of the lid.
