Notes

Yeast
Safale S-04 English Ale. No need to aerate with the dry yeast. FG usually comes in around 1.014, but has ranged from 1.013 to 1.018 over the years (not always with the current yeast).
Used Safale US-05 for JUICY 16.

Malt
Use a mix of pale ale malt, munich malt and vienna malt. No acid malt. Leave it out, but be ready to adjust if pH ends up too high.
Try Golden Promise next time! Just to see if you like it. I used the local craft malt for JUICY 16.

Small amounts of any of the following should also be included:
Rye malt: 250g
Cara-rye: I've tried it once but I'm still not sure what it gives to the brew. However there 100g in FOOL 13 so I'm keeping it that way.
Smoked malt: has become essential! Minimum 100g. Has gradually crept to 250g. Seems about right.

Mash

Dough in when HLT = 170F, expect to hit about 155F or so, let stand for an hour, dropping gradually, then conduct normal mash-out.

====
Hops

BF reported values:
IBU: 118
AAU: 44 [ounces * AA%, so this is 4 ounces @ 11 AA for 60 min]

Here's my advice from the 2019 Planner: "Generally boil first hop for about 70 minutes, and drop in about 20 aa pts worth of something for 30 minutes. No finishing hop. Dry hop at least an ounce of something nice per keg. Don’t leave it in contact with the beer for more than a week."

The Challenger/Sovereign hops were great. I've used various hops but I'm looking for an English-feeling ale, so it makes sense to use traddish English hops.
