So I found an English Braggot recipe in the mead section of the AHA website. Not sure why it was in the mead section as this recipe is really more of a big beer than a braggot. Only uses 2# of honey, whereas a braggot should be at least 50% honey. Which is why I posted this in the beer section rather than the mead section like I did with my last braggot.
Anyway, this is the original recipe:
12# Amber/Biscuit Malt
6# Pale Malt
2# Honey
And either:
.5oz Low alpha hops @ 60min
or
Black Pepper
Candied Ginger
Cinnamon
Cloves
Galingale
I decided to change up the recipe a small amount:
OG: 1.099
FG: 1.023
ABV: 9.89%
IBU: 20.21
SRM: 25.79
12# Fawcett Amber Malt
6# Fawcett Maris Otter Malt
2# White Clover Honey
and used just hops instead of the spices:
1oz Whitbread Goldings @60
.5oz Whitbread Goldings @20
.5oz Whitbread Goldings @5
.5oz Whitbread Goldings Dry-hopped 5 days
Windsor Ale Yeast
Critiques? Suggestions? Problems?
