Notes

notes from Amber Gold & Black by Martyn Cornell:
mild originally meant any ale drunk fresh; aged ale was called stale
ale was lightly hopped; beer was more heavily hopped
mild could be light or dark, and had a sweet taste from unfermented sugars
needs a bit of sodium chloride or sodium carbonate
around 1830, milds could vary from an O.G. of 1.055 to 1.090
mild malt had a diastatic power between 23 and 30 degrees
pale and amber malts, with invert sugar or cane sugar
mash at higher temperatures, 153–155 °F (67.2–68.3
°C), in order to give a higher level of unfermentables in the wort

I mashed the pale grains, and added the chocolate malt after 45 minutes

color is brown

Saturday, April 7 - racked to secondary
took a gravity reading of 1.014, beer temperature is 62 deg F

Saturday, April 14 - bottled the beer with 5.5 oz. corn sugar
F.G. is 1.014, very little yeast sediment
color brown, tastes delicious, malty, balanced, mild

slow to condition
