Yeast: WYEAST Scottish Ale
1728 Scottish Ale
Rich, smokey, peaty character ideally suited
for scottish style ales, smoked beers and
high gravity ales. Flocculation - high;
apparent attenuation - 69-73%. (55-70°F)
yeast preference order:
wyeast 1728 Scottish Ale Yeast.
whitelabs WLP0028 Edinburgh Ale
whitelabs WLP003 German Ale II
wyeast 1056 American Ale Yeast.
wyeast 1084 Irish Ale Yeast.
Notes:
Remove two gallons of first runnings and boil down
to about 1 pint and add back to boil. This will
give the richer taste that you find in this fine
beer.
Collect 15 gallons of Run-off and boil down to
your 11 1/2 gallon target (the other 1/2 gallon
will come from the 1/2 gallon starter of yeast
slurry that you have made in advance).
Add 2-3 teaspoons of Irish Moss into the boil
just because.
Traquar is the finest of all Scottish Ales.
Their recipe is pretty easy and straight
forward. 99% Pale Ale Malt, 1% Roasted
Barley and 35-37 IBU's.
