Notes

5 pounds base malt more than original recipe.

Also split the base malt between 11.5 pounds of Maris Otter and 7.5 pounds of Golden Promise. This was the last of the Maris Otter bag I had bought in October.

Also did a 2 step 2 liter starter (4 liter) on the Imperial Darkness yeast.

Will add a 2 step 2 liter starter (4 liter) of the WLP099 (High Gravity) after 3 days of fermenting.
