Use filtered water (as the Brooklyn Brewery does) and add Burton water salts (as the Brooklyn Brewery does) to attain the above water profile...this will really accentuate your English hops.

Notes

After mash, top up brewpot to 3 gallons and boil, add malts and begin hop schedule. Boil volume is 3.5 gallons.

Wort chill, transfer to primary, top up to 5.5 gallons, pitch yeast, and ferment for 7 days, or until fermentation slows. Transfer to secondary and leave until fermentation stops. Add Gelatin 3 days prior to bottling and cold crash in refrigerator (really clears up the beer).

Bottle and condition at room temp for 21 days.

Enjoy!!
