Bargain needs a recipe.

The nutrition label on the container should say exactly how much sugar is in it.

This is what I did for a marmalade IPA
20l Batch, 6.6% ABV, 51 IBU
4.5Kg Maris Otter
0.5Kg Wheat Malt
0.3Kg Crystal 150
25g Admiral 31.9 IBU boil 60 minutes
20g Mandarina 11.1 IBU boil 15 minutes
500g Marmalade boil 15 minutes
100g Lactose boil 15 minutes
30g Manadarina 8.3 IBU steep 15 minutes at 90c
CML Ale yeast

Mash at 66 for 75 minutes
Boil 60 minutes.

The Admiral hops were proabaly chosen because I had some to use up. The maramalde was homemade to there was no label to check for sugar content, but it would have been about 50% sugar and 50% Seville oranges (I don't know the sugar content of the oranges), so the 6.6% ABV is a guess.

The Mandarina hops were Stuart's (fromer head brewer at Mad Dog) suggestion. I'm not sure whose idea the lactose was, the CML yeast was what I had in stock.

It went down well at my local homebrew club.

@DocAnna

I really like the format you used with this recipe. Very nice.

How did you calculate the sugar content of the Marmalade?

My guess the Marmalade is 50% sugar so 2 tubs = 3kg of fermentables.
Should we take a little water with this (sorry )

I've transferred the recipe now into brewfather and personally it comes out higher strength than the recipe suggests, more a quad than a trippel. The sugar in your marmalade is 51%. I think I'd cut down a bit on the marmalade or up the batch size. The files here though mean you can fiddle with it to match your equipment profile for the water.

Thank you Anna. Much appreciated. I am going to braumeister it.

Smashing. This uses my tried and tested base. Thankyou. I feel 2 brews coming on.... Hmm I wonder how much more Marmalade they have
