Shouldn't have left you...

Okay, I haven't brewed in some time and I have a day off work today so here goes nothing. It's been so long I feel like I'm going to forget to add the hops or something. Hopefully not, that would be a super sweet malty beer considering there is 10.25 # of malt in it. Here's the recipe

8 # Maris Otter
1 # English Brown
.5 # carapils
.5 # Aromatic
.25 # 60L Crystal

Mash at 152 for one hour

1 oz Kent Golding for 60 min
.5 oz Challenger for 30 min
.5 oz Challenger for 15 min

Safale S-04 yeast

Fermentation temp should be around 68 F for one week in primary
and then two or three in secondary

The goal is to hit about 75% efficiency in my mash which would put me at 1.058 OG
If the yeast does its job I will have a 6.5% ABV beer. I can't wait
