Notes

This began as: To Brewe Beer: X. quarters malte, ij. quarters wheet, ij. quarters ootes, xl. ll'. weight of hoppys. To make lx. barells of sengyll beer. (Richard Arnold, 1502)


Estimated pH is not necessarily reliable because of custom additions. Mashing time is extended to deal with expected lower conversion rates.

The reason there is no "priming information" is because this is primed with wort.

On bottling day, create a wort with the following grains:
Riverbend Heritage Malt: 3.25 oz
Wheat: 0.87 oz
Oats: 0.62 oz.

Bring 1 quart water to 155 degrees. Add malts and mash an hour. Strain out grains and boil 20 minutes. Cool and add to clarified (post secondary) beer before bottling.
