I needed a keg for Memorial weekend and thats only 3 weeks away. So I

I decided to make an English Mild. Sort of.

I took a popular mild recipe and changed the hops up just a bit. So

what I think I will get is something between a mild and a Standard

bitter.

Instead of the 45 min fuggle bittering i used EKG at 60 just because I

had an ounce here. And moved the 15 min fuggle to 10. Not a major

move, but maybe keep some of the aroma to hang around.

6 1/2 lb Maris Otter

1 1/2 lb 60L

1/2 lb chocolate malt

1 oz EKG @ 60

1 oz fuggles @ 10

Coopers ale yeast.

The Coopers really dried out the last beer I used it in, and because

this has a lot of crystal and a high mash temp of 158 want it to eat

everything in there to keep it from being Karo syrup.

My OG was .052. and I would be happy if it ended around .010 but its

probably gonna be higher.

Gotta get my bottle washed up for this weekends bottling of the

Titletown Stout wort.

I dumped it on an 05 cake and it turbo fermented out in about 3 days.

This had an OG of .090! so real curious to see how it ended up.

Looks like theres a little more than 4 gallons. Might have to get

another box of 22 oz for these.
