Notes

Couldn't get Carabrown so subbing medium british crystal.
Couldn't get M15 either so subbing Lallemand Windsor

Infusion mash at 153 °F (67 °C). Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops per schedule. Pitch yeast when wort has reached 65 °F (18 °C). Ferment 2-3 weeks and bottle when specific gravity readings remain the same for 3 consecutive days.

HOPS
0.9 oz (25 g) UK Phoenix 9% a.a @ 60 min (no longer available, use any U.K. hop variety)
