Brewday is a couple of weeks away.

I have the ingredients and plan to brew the Younger 1868 60 recipe on the Barclay Perkins Site.

I still need to assemble the grain mill I bought a couple months ago. I finally decided that I need to be buying uncrushed grains and crushing them myself.

The plan is to make a 4 gallon batch with my still somewhat new DarkStar Burner. So far the recipes have been 3 gallon recipes since that is the way I had written them.

The malt bill was filled at Northern Brewer. I will be using their English Pale malt and Belgian Pale malt. I have some 4.2 UK Fuggle for my hops.

I'll be using homemade invert sugar which I believe turned out really well this time (2nd time I have attempted it).

I bought some English Mangrove Jack yeasts a while ago to try out. I'll be using the Newcastle Dark Ale yeast on this batch.

I'll be trying to formulate this using BeerSmith which I bought to help with volume issues using my new setup.

Looks very interesting Prof...

Start the yeast cool and help it rise a bit yeah?

The plan was to brew this last Sunday.
A relative that has not seen a brew session was supposed to be there as well as two that had. I was going to open the last liter of the Younger No.1 Scotch Ale.
But fate had other plans.
The relative that had not seen a brew day got sick and was still recovering, and the weather turned to rain.
Rescheduled to limbo at this time.
