Pam Grier, american brown ale based on Mikkeller's Jackie Brown.
Grist
- 1600g pils (Castle, 3 EBC)
- 300g brown malt (Crisp, 120 EBC)
- 300g Caramel Münich I (BESTMALTZ, 90 EBC)
- 300g Flaked torrified oats (Crisp, 5 EBC)
- 200g Crystal malt (Castle, 150 EBC)
- 100g cara pils (BESTMALTZ, 5 EBC)
- 50g Chateau chocolat (Castle, 900 EBC)
- 315g DME
Hops
- 18g Nugget @ 60min
- 18g Centennial @ 5min
- 18g Amarillo dryhop
Yeast
- Wyeast 1028
Notes
Basically no-chill. Yeast pitched 30/1 around noon.
FG 1.012-1.013 measured 5/2
Forgot to note OG. Recipe stated 1.060. Brewfather calculated 1.054. Efficiency was low, hence the DME, so assume Brewfather is correct.
Bottling
10L bottled on 7/2 using 67g DME for carbonation.
Tasting notes
Lacks mouthfeel. Maybe mash at higher temp, and/or use another yeast. WY1968, maybe?
Slight roast character. Use Carafa Special II instead of chocolate malt, or try capping
Maybe a bit too dark? Check recipe against actual EBC values used. Some grains might have switched color/amout. Not critical.
- Recipe calls for 23 EBC Münich I, not 90 EBC Caramel Münich I. This is probably the main culprit re. color.
- Recipe calls for 110 EBC Cara Crystal, not 150 EBC Crystal
- Brown malt is listed at slightly lighter than recipe, though (120 vs 150 EBC)
