Doughed in..., BYO recipe Options

[earthtone]

Hey, just doughed in on that Murphy's Style Stout AG recipe from last month's BYO. Anyone else try this one out? Only change is that I am using 1084 saved from my last stout instead of the nottingham or 1028 they recommend. BREW ON!

[earthtone]

Done, smells great - tasty brew. This is the most simple stout I have done so far, looking forward to the final product. Simple grain bill and lightly hopped, simplicity seems to do the trick!

Hit my OG from the recipe 1.041, pitched a healthy sludge of 1084 Irish Ale Yeast at 72 df. Time for the magic!

Cheers fellow weekend brewers!

What's different about the Murphy's style than the typical 70 pale, 20 flaked, 10 roasted?

Would you mind sharing the recipe.... don't have that BYO on hand.

I haven't used 1084 in a long while. I found 1056 better suited to my dry stouts.
Better attenuation.

[earthtone]

Boo Boo, yeah I was going to use a better attenuating strain but I had some healthy yeast cake from my last stout on 1084 so I thought I would sub it in for convenience/cost reasons.

The recipe follows that ratio almost exactly, I've never made a dry stout before or done a recipe form BYO so I picked this one.

6 lb British 2-Row
1.75 lb Flaked Barley
14 oz Roasted Barley

1.5 oz EKG @ 60
1 Tab Irish Moss @ 15

Mashed low @ 150 df then fly sparged, collected just over 6 gallons at 1.032, did a 90 min. boil and ended with my 5 gallons @ 1.041. I think that is 1 grav point higher than the recipe calls for but feels good to hit the grav for a recipe I didn't make that close! Still pretty inexperienced here with only 4 AG batches under my belt. Little victories (IMG:style_emoticons/brewboard/biggrin.gif)

Pitched that yeast cake of 1084 at 72 df and now it is sitting at 71 fermenting like crazy.

WOW... nice and simple (IMG:style_emoticons/brewboard/smile.gif) I guess I have to give it a try.... I just finished up the last of my recent stout so I'm do for another batch soon!

BYO recipies are great, but be sure to reference their recipie index at the beginning of the mag. to follow their recipie standardization procedures if you want to get it exactly like the posted recipies.

just got back from christmas out of town and tried this little diddy now 45 days in the bottle.........best beer yet.......... if you like stouts and haven't tried this simple recipe or one like it I highly recommend you give it a go and taste one hella delicious brew! This will have to see a constant rotation in my brewing schedule from here on in!! (IMG:style_emoticons/brewboard/cheers.gif)
