Hi All,
I'm thinking about doing a Baltic Porter soon. After a bit of searching, I've noticed that a lot of the recipes have lots of specialty malts in them. I usually like to keep things fairly simple so I'm thinking along the following lines:
Maris Otter 45%
Wey Vienna 45%
Wey Caramunich 7%
Wey Carafa special II 3%
Perle or similar to about 30-35 IBU
Maybe a bit of 10-20 min Saaz
I don't really have a setup to deal with lager yeasts, so I was thinking US-05 for simplicity.
Comments? It's not a style I've had before, so I'm quite possibly way off the mark.
