Planning to brew tomorrow. Question is about Nottingham, recipe is below. I have two pouches of dry Notty (Lallemand) and a bit confused now by BeerSmith calc. Looks like 2 pouches are just under pitching rate if I simply rehydrate... however, only 1 if I build a starter. I know it is a bit controversial - but would like someone experienced with Notty to weigh in. I could put the starter on tonight and should be at or near krausen by tomorrow afternoon if I keep it warmish.
Recipe is not quite traditional, but what I have handy. Recipe suggestions welcome as well! Playing a bit with Caramunich and Special B.
