I was going through my old brewing notebooks- (still use pen and paper for all my notes) and found the first all grain recipe I made back in 2010. having all the ingredients in stock, deciding to brew it this weekend. looking at the notes, it reads like someone who barely knows what they are doing- and, to be fair, it was.
Its a simple, session strength stout. The recipe came from the moderator of the now defunct homebrewchatter.com (This is where i made contact with Chils (aka Steve U), who invited me to join the blueboard. I adjusted the recipe to my system, just calculated the water profile. should clock in around 4-4.5% for a 5 gallon batch.
6.8# two-row
1.2# flaked barley
1.2# carapils
.90# Roasted Barley
.60# chocolate malt
single hop addition of 5 AAUs of EKG at 60 minutes
using WLP004 for yeast.
it'll be fun to see how this turns out after a dozen years of brewing; i could love it, or i could hate it. just brewing it for fun.
just looking back in the past for some inspiration. has anyone else done this?

That recipe looks good to me. I hope you like it! I am not good at keeping things. I have erased my old recipes so many times.

I've only lost the first 8 recipes I made- the notebook got damagedthey were kit beers or recipes from joy of homebrewing. I'm sure my notes were "OMG, best beer I ever had!" While doing Secondary in a garage that didn't have temperature control.
