60 minutes @ 156*F
Total Grain Weight: 22.97 lbs
Notes:
This beer came out fantastic! My goal was a nut brown ale and for my palate, this was spot on! The heavily roasted grains were kept to minimum so you don't get any of the... for lack of a better term, *astringency*, that sometimes comes with the roasted grains. Mine finished at 1.012, exactly as predicted. Body was perfect and mouthfeel is smooth. The pic below is from 12/22/2019 at about 3pm, roughly 1-1.5 weeks in the keg.
Mine didn't clear like I wanted it to, but it's almost dark enough where you can't tell. Even so, still a fantastic drinking beer. Like I said above, similar to a Samuel Smith's Nut Brown, but I'd say this one was a bit nuttier.
