Eltham ESB

Ale - English Strong (Extra Special) B
All Grain

Brewer's Notes

According to real almanac, anmd head brewer at Fullers, grist for ESB is 5% maize. I used some flaked corn left over from a previous brew, and added polenta to get me up to 300g. Flaked barley is there for head retention - i used it in a TTL clone and it works well, without haze. EKG at 60 min was FWH, only because IBU was looking a bit low.

Some brew days are better than others, and yesterday was a good one. I managed to get exactly 23L into the fermenter, OG = 1060 against a forecast of 1056. The fermenter is now in my brew fridge at 18deg, and there's a nice krausen this morning. I've got high hopes for this one.

Fents - in about 6 or 7 weeks I'll meet you at Dave's shop for a few Eltham ESBs.
