Glad to see a brew video again (looks like a good drop) - cheers.

GREAT BREW DAY!!! The video was pretty cool and I enjoyed watching it very much. The beer looked good, too!!!
The only issue that occurred on the brew day was that the brewing method/instructions produced distillers beer and there is really nothing that can be done with the beer to turn it into ale. The single temperature infusion brewing method is used in grain distillation, where, only, glucose is needed for producing distillers beer. The brewing method, chemically and enzymatically, cannot produce ale, due to the way that enzymes work, and chemical precipitation because it skips three steps that are needed for producing ale and lager, which are conversion, dextrinization, and gelatinization. When the steps are skipped, the beer has to be artificially carbonated with sugar or CO2 injection and drank, green, from boiler to belly in three or four weeks because the extract lacks fermentable, complex, types of sugar, maltose and maltotriose, which are the types of sugar that produces ale and lager, and the extract lacks, tasteless, nonfermenting, types of sugar and pectin, which provides the body and mouthfeel in beer.
The high temperature rest denatures Beta. Beta is responsible for conversion at 60 to 63. Beta converts simple sugar, glucose, into maltose and maltotriose. When conversion occurs secondary fermentation takes place, due to maltose. Maltotriose is responsible for natural carbonation, sugar and CO2 injection aren't needed, when conversion takes place.
The extract lacks A and B limit dextrin and pectin, which are contained in heat resistant, complex, starch, called amylopectin because the temperatures used in homebrewing aren't high enough to burst the heat resistant, starch, before Alpha denatures, and the richest starch in malt ends up being thrown away with the spent mash. The Hochkurz and triple decoction methods take advantage of the rich starch. When the mash is boiling, amylopectin, quickly, opens up, and when the boiling decoctions are added back into the main mash, Alpha liquefies the starch, and dextrinization and gelatinization occurs. When the starch is thrown away, beer, overly dries and thins during fermentation and conditioning, it is one of the reasons why homebrew is artificially carbonated and drank when it is green.
Marris Otter is high modified, to over modified, distillers, malt. If you enjoy using Marris Otter, buy the Marris Otter that contains the least amount of protein, that goes for any malt. I'm not sure who the maltster is, but one of them produces Marris Otter in the 8 to 10 percent protein range, which is awesome. The less protein, the more sugar. Malt, suitable for brewing ale should contain less than 10 percent protein. The malt is over modified, so, if you add corn or rice, add some six row, or strong, two row, malt.
An entirely different brewing method and under modified, low protein, malt are used for producing ale and lager.
To place the brew cart behind the horse, a malt spec sheet comes with each bag of malt, which a brewer uses for determining the quality of malt before buying the malt. Listed on a malt spec sheet are a bunch of chemical acronyms and numbers, and level of modification and protein content are two important numbers listed. It is a good idea to learn abut the data because without an understanding of the info, you have, absolutely, no way to determine, whether, the malt that you buy is better for making whiskey with, or more suitable for producing ale and lager. Do not assume that an HBS salesman or that a recipe writer knows that a malt spec sheet exists or knows what it is used for. The brewing instructions recommended single temperature infusion and distillers, malt, which is an indication that a malt spec sheet wasn't known about and that the recipe writer was more familiar with the way that distillers beer is made, than, with the way that ale is produced.

Malt spec sheets are online from each malthouse.
