Notes
2024-02-17
Last batch went really well. Going to up the yeast nutes and whirlfloc. Adding 5 g of ascorbic acid to the mash as an antioxidant protector.
Previous batch.
First batch went really quickly. Was definitely in the same vein as AB, but not close due to the caramel malt shifts. Redoing with the right mix 90/10 and all chinook. Ran out of London Ale Lallemand, subbing Windsor.
Want to stick with older recipes and modern clones but don't have enough Special B or Chinook.
Trad recipe is 90% Brewer's Malt 10% Special B, 90 IBUs of Chinook with 4 additions 90, 45, 15, 0. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/can-you-brew-it-recipe-for-stone-arrogant-bastard.176191/
Going to try and fake Special B with dark British Crystal and add some caraaroma. Hops will be harder. Bittering with Bitter Gold and finishing with Chinook might be the way to go.
Third batch swapping 1 pack of Windsor for Notty.
