Beer Alchemy... no Maris Otter?

[Airborneguy]

I am finally using my BeerAlchemy for the first time and it doesn't have maris otter lister as an ingredient. I figured out how to add it, along with the other stuff it doesn't have , but I don't know the specifications of Maris Otter.

Can anyone help?

Hmmm... I think this answers my question:

Maris Otter is just a cultivar of barley. UK Pale Ale Male (as written in BA) is the malt. I think I added "UK Pale Ale Malt (Maris Otter)" to my inventory adjusting the EBC to what I know to be true for the brand I am using.

Beerrific is correct. IIRC I took the specs for the UK 2-row pale malt from a maltster's (probably Fawcett's) Maris Otter. To be honest, in terms of specs that BA uses, the main UK cultivars are pretty similar (unless you're using a low color Maris Otter that is available over here).

Thanks for the replies. I'll check those numbers.
