0.6 oz Magnum leaf hops @60mins
0.5oz Hallertauer hers leaf hops @ 15mins
0.5oz Magnum leaf hops@15mins
Notes
Steeped grains together @ 160 deg f for 40 mins. Boiled with first addition of hops together with 1/3 of lme.
Added 15min hops with all remaining lme and dme to ensure sanitary but light-ish colour. Fermented 2 weekd then bottled to 2.4 vol of co2.
Not bad for my first attempt at extract I must say.
Would love to hear what other may think.
Sounds nice and drinkable. i would try a 2ndary next time to help clarity. cant imagine its too amber though with that grain and malt bill. sounds more like a pale ale. maybe a bit of mouth feel from that carapils.
I am def going to secondary next time as it suffers from chill haze a bit, but I dont really mind that, but some of my mates who are a bit snobby might lol.
It was planned to be light, but put lme in at 45 mins so turned a bit darker.
Im new to all this so im going to experiment before getting a true recipe and being dissapointed from where I messed up haha.
