i have the grains crushed already so i can't take any out but i can add. as for the hops i can change amounts or time. its a variation on edworts haus since the hbs didn't have vienna and i dont like briess 2 row and didn't want a 1/2 bag of crystal 10 sitting around.

On your zero minute hops, wait until the wort is cooled to 180f, then chuck them in. I did this on my last brew and the aroma was amazing.

Looks good!

I really like some munich in my pale ales and IPA's.

Centennial is a great hop too!

Yup, try to let them steep 20-30 minutes. Awesome hop aroma!

Sounds fantastic. This one's going in my BeerAlchemy.

What temp were you planning to mash? I'll pencil it in for 153....

If you change the Munich for Vienna and sub the Centennial with Cascades, you just about have EdWort's Bee Cave Haus Pale Ale to a "tee". That is an awesome brew I can tell you first hand. So, yours should be quite good as well.

thats what i wanted to do but i have like 1/2 # of cenntenial i need to use and the hbs was outta vienna.

i was gonna do it at 153-154

I might steal this idea for my house ale... Centennials are my favorite!
