Notes: Brewed 12/05/2015.
Intended to bottle on 1/16/2016. The beer finished just above 1.020, but tastes very sweet. It's undrinkable like this; I can choke one down if I mix with something else. I racked it to a smaller carboy and added some amylase enzyme because I've been told that can restart a stuck fermentation, but I'm doubtful.
It did start fermenting again after adding the amylase. BTW, I think my LHBS ordered coffee malt for me instead of brown malt. That would explain why this beer is inky black.
1/20/2017: I just drank the last bottle of this. After aging for about a year it was really good, just served it a little colder than normal for this style to mask the sweetness (which has subsided.) I'm sad it's gone, and I will brew it again soon (using real brown malt next time, and fermenting a little warmer which T-58 likes so it attenuates better |

| Notes: Third variation on a classic English style I got to enjoy while stationed over there. Still hunting for the right flavors although the misses have been enjoyable for their own merits. Changes in this iteration are primarily in water chemistry. Boosting the gypsum levels higher than I do for other malt forward beers although staying short of the historical "Burton" water. |

Notes: Fine crush recommended! Due to the heavy grain bill, recipe is for 2.75 gal so it can be made in a 10gal brew kettle using BIAB, and also have plenty of headspace in a 6.5 gal carboy for fermentation. Two 2.75 gal batches can be combined for a full 5.5 gal batch in a keg or secondary fermenter. Starting mash water should PH at 8 to achieve desired mash PH.
For Ghost Pepper Bourbon tincture, infuse 2oz of bourbon with 1 ghost pepper for 15 minutes, then remove pepper.
After primary fermentation, add adjuncts to secondary for 1 week before racking to keg or final vessel for another 1+ month of aging at 63 degrees.
