Is this one of your favourite recipes or just a thought ? I've got some ideas as well, I thought some one might have a awesome recipe using these ingredients.

Dr Smurto's Engish IPA. Look that up.



I wasn't at all impressed with s04 either tbh.

my appoigies i meant us05.

i agree didnt like the us04 either.

That's a nice yeast.
Are you no chill?

Sorry "all yeasts" are good. I used the 04 in a dark beer and I felt it did a good job. Bitter as hell tho.

Although I would do 80% vienna 20% Munich.
Step mash at 55c for ten min
then 65-67c for 70min.
Finish off at 78 for another ten.

I dont use a lot of spec malts just small amounts mostly depending on what Im brewing but I find with JW malts (my base) they need a bit of beefing up. SO pale or pilsner and I generally add 20-30% Munich. With no crystal a 50/50 pale munich would be awesome with magnum as bittering then flavour with how you like (with say 50-75% of ibu coming from flavouring).

Not a huge fan of s04 but it does the job when you want dark or malt driven. Then again that statement was based on a few years ago when I brewed extracts and probably didnt treat it right.

100% Vienna would also pair up really well with mosaic.

If you no chill and have a few cubes something really simple and identical could be a good way to test out your hops. Out of curiosity, what brand malts do you have?
