Hey Brewheads.
It's my first shot at an ESB and I just wanted to run my recipe by some more seasoned heads. It is as follows;
Kiwi ESB - mini-mash recipe.
25lt Batch
Est OG: 1.052
Est FG: 1.013
Est IBU: 35.5
Est ABV: 5.1%
Est ECB: 16.8
1.2kg of Maris Otter Malt
0.5kg of Flaked Wheat
0.3kg of Crystal 60L
3kg of Briess Golden Light Liquid Malt Extract
30g of Riwaka (5.2%AA) @ 60min
30g of Riwaka (5.2%AA) @ 25min
30g of Riwaka (5.2%AA) @ 15min
Wyeast 1318 London III yeast
Mashing grains at 68'c for an hour in 6 litres of water and sparging with 2 litres @ 75'c to get 8 litres of wort for the boil.
I had considered using flaked maize (as in a Fullers ESB clone) instead of wheat but went with wheat out of habit.
I'm more concerned about the hop schedule. I wanted that Riwaka flavor in it but don't want to completely ignore the traditional flavor profile of the chosen style.
I'd appreciate any help more experienced ESB brewers could offer. Cheers.
