Notes

Make a starter 24 hrs before brewing. London esb curdled like cottage cheese, it is not infected it is normal. Had a great fermentation. Please let me know if you brew this recipe. I would love each some feedback. Also I went higher than normal for grains cause I wanted a big beer. The brewing manager at fullers gave me these percentages. Thy were nice enough to respond to my inquiry.
