Someone just pointed out to me that the malt quantity for 1865 Lovibond XX on page 108 was unrealistically high. He was right because it is way off. Thought it might be a good idea to publish the correct recipe.


If you own the book, I'd recommend printing this recipe out and inserting it between pages 108 and 109.
