I have made this one with 1968, 1028, 1099 (the standard) and now WLP023. I envisioned this one being on tap in the late summer or early fall which sounds perfect for the style. The 1968 will make a dynamite version of this recipe. Cheers.A nice english ale might have to be my next brew. I have a mason jar with some washed 1968 from a couple months back in the fridge. I should get that up and going again. Maybe something like yours then a nice porter.

Sounds yummy! That 1187 is very nice. It's been awhile since I used it but it's got a great character. Cheers!Well I brewed up a version of this on Suday. Maris Otter, Crystal 60L, and a little Aromatic with bittered with target and northdown late addtions. 1187 for the yeast. We'll have to see. Hopefully I'll have some nice beer porn ala Ken to post back!

This is probably a case-by-case thing depending on your water but I think on this last one I used 50% RO (to lower the bicarbonate) and then added back 2g of gypsum and 2g of CaCl. The balance on it was perrrrrfect. Cheers.How much gypsum are you adding for a 5 gal batch?

Probably a better way to answer that question is to give your final water profile in ppm. That way anyone who knows the profile of their tap water can make the necessary adjustments to get to your profile.
