Just ordered a bunch of stuff to make a strong barleywine. Aiming at an OG of 1.100. 8oz of EKG, 4oz of Keyworth Early, several pounds of Chevalier malt (pale), Brett C., a dash of brown malt and some darkish sugar, etc. Plan is to leave it age for the best part of a year on its lees with the brett (after pitching two strains of sacc). The vital stats are around 12%abv, 18SRM, 110IBU. I was aiming for a brewhouse efficiency of 55% based on previous experience.
Any tips?
