Cubed up my BIAB version of Orfy's Mild Mannered Ale yesterday.

Recipe: Mild Mannered Ale
Mild TYPE: All Grain

Recipe Specifications
--------------------------
Batch Size: 23.00 L
Boil Size: 30.50 L
Estimated OG: 1.037 SG
Estimated Color: 21.0 SRM
Estimated IBU: 23.3 IBU
Brewhouse Efficiency: 70.0 %
Boil Time: 60 Minutes

Ingredients:(adjusted)
------------
3.75 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter
0.95 kg Crystal Malt - 60L
0.15 kg Chocolate Malt
30.00 gm Fuggles [5.1%] (45 min) Hops
30.00 gm Fuggles [5.1%] (15 min) Hops

Was planning on using 1318 yeast, but realised I have ran out. Would 1469 be a suitable substitute?
Ended up hitting 78% efficiency. Mashed at 68deg C for 60min, then mash out to 78 over 10min. Dumped the bag in another bucket and sparged with 6lt 80deg water. Returned to pot for 32lt pre-boil. OG into the cube ended up being a little high, 1.043, will adjust into the fermenter.
Looking forward to tasting is a couple of weeks.
 
Thanks to kenlock for the posting advice !

Not your traditional hop selection for this one, I know.

Coconut taste is quite obvious going into the fermenter, most should be scrubbed out though.

Notes:
 
About to throw together my first IPA

Thomas Coopers IPA (India Pale Ale) (1.7kg)

Thomas Coopers Amber Malt Extract (1.5kg)

I also wanted to add some hops for flavour and aroma, any tips, recommendations or advise on that one?
 
East Kent Goldings are the aroma hop of choice in UK style IPAs.

But if it's a US style, then Williamette are the US version of Fuggles, and then there are all the 'new world' US styles like Cascade etc...

EKG for sure if it's just an IPA, maybe a little bit of Challenger too is a winner.
 
I just brewed an english brown with Burton ale yeast, tasted so nice I decided to do another one with a bit more caramel flavour,.
It is fermenting now but on the weekend I tasted an American brown with a nice hoppy touch so today I plunged a handfull of galaxy and poured it into the fermenter, my english brown is now an american style english brown!

I hope it tastes ok ...........

very close on all numbers, tastes fantastic from hydro....my first 'dark' brew. looking forward to tasting this one.
 
Brewed this one last night.
Experiment - Took the original recipe with OG of 1.069. Scaled it back to 1.056, then dialed the IBU's back to keep the same balance as the original. Anyone else experimented with this concept?
Doing this to get more beer into the FV from my equipment and a lower ABV beer. All vitals still remain within the IPA range within Nazi Mode.
