Will do an overnight mash so will leave roasted barley til the morning. Thus I’d need more acid than 3ml for proper mash pH but given the length of the mash, I’m going to leave it alone

Notes

Bought several ingredients in kg so off grain decimals are lb-equivalent. Recipe calls for 12oz black roasted barley (500L) but LHBS only had 300L, thus the 2oz midnight wheat.

Split batch with WLP007 (Dry english) and WLP004 (Irish Ale). Overnight mash went from 158f to 145 +12 hrs. fermentation temp of 67 with a d-rest after a week up to 70 for a few days.

Tasting notes:
007: low malty aroma, no hops, slight roast. Flavor is low biscuit and malt, very low roast. Balancing bittterness but no discernible hop flavor. Finnish has some malty sweetness and a bit of dryness from the roast
004: low malty aroma but a bit more than 007. No hops. Almost no roast. Flavor is same with a bit brighter fruitiness though still low. Same balance and hop presence. Finish is very similar.

Both beers started with a bit too much malt flavor and especially too much roast but after two months they really mellowed out. Color is a bit on the brown side vs red but there are some ruby highlights.
