Single Malt Recipe Advice
Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2016 2:27 pm
So I am about to have a go at Single Malt and had come up with a recipe from a bit of reading.
45L wash at SG 1.080 FG 1.020 7.86% Brewmate come up with the following
60% Golden Promise- 8.888kg
40% Bairds Med. Peat- 5.925kg
Went to the HBS to order and have been told that it is wrong season for Golden Promise, and Maris Otter would be similar? ($85 a bag)
Can't get Medium Peat, only heavy. ($138 a bag)
So is Maris Otter similar to Golden Promise?
And if I need to use Heavy Peat, would it be advisable to use Less? Say go 20%
Will be using a 50L Braumeister (Home brew shops) for mash.
Thanks for the help.
