Billy's Bitter
A nice easy drinking beer.
(Recipe for 20 litres)
1 1/2 kg Light Dry Malt Extract
1 1/2 kg Light Liquid Malt Extract
1/2 cup of roasted barley
25 g Fuggles hops
15 g Cascade hops (finishing)
Method: Boil with all ingredients except the finishing hops in 6 litres of water for 50 minutes. Add finishing hops and boil for 3 more minutes. Remove from the heat. Pour into fermenter. Top up to 20 litres with cold water. Check temperature, when below 30� Celsius add 2 packets of ale yeast. Ferment as usual. Spg 1.042
Notes: Nice beer with a pronounced hoppy taste. Not happy with the clarity. It may be because I kegged it. I will use finings the next time.
