Emma’s ESB Bastard (AZ)

Arizona batch 4

Add Grains, gypsum and keep at 125° for 25 min
Bring to 140° for 20 minutes
Bring to 160° for 15 minutes
Bring to 200° and remove grain
Sparge with 1 gal of water

Add extracts, Chinooks and Bullions and boil at 112° for 1 hour.

Added Cascades with 5 min left in boil.

Pitched yeast at 70-80 degrees.

Note: I tried the Chinook and Bullion together to get the same AAU as the 10.7 Target hops. Plus, the Bullions are supposed to have a spicy rich flavor I thought might be good.
Note: The Belgian Amber is not available in the US except at Brewing Connection – it’s a dark malt in a light malt shell. it has something to do with the way it’s roasted or something.
Fermentation temp was around 80-85°
