Notes

Starting with Irondale Brewing's Kentucky Common recipe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYtjZjNAiUU

I got excited because he said it was like chocolate milk, which he didn't want, but I do.

BJCP styles have different ideas about how to brew this (e.g. imported Continental finishing hops, ale yeast not Irondale's M54), so I've done a little bit of both and backed in the European-style Williamette. I'd rather use an ale yeast and this is probably the first where S-04 or US-05 would be equally as fine.

I also added rice hulls, as is recommended when using maize malt (the closest I can get to flaked corn) to prevent a stuck mash.
