My first AG
I'm most likely picking up my grains and hops for my fist AG tomorrow. I don't know what I, doing so my recipe is going to be
10# briess pale 1# toasted oats 1.5 fuggle 60min .75 fuggle 15 min .75 fuggle 5min Reused wlp04 |
How do you plan to brew? BIAB? Cooler mashtun?
|
Just wondering what type of beer that grain bill would give you. Something like a bitter? Or an Irish Ale I guess?
|
Looks like an English bitter to me. Good luck, post updates!

When you mash in, be patient. Stir for 5 minutes and see where the temperature rests. I stirred for 30 seconds and thought I overshot my mash temp... so I added some cold water and completely undershot my mash temp. By the time I had it back up in a mashable temperature range, my mash was extremely thin and I only need something like a gallon or 2 of sparge water to hit volume.
So be patient, plan it out and take your time. Don't be too hasty. |
I'm using a 10 gallon igloo cooler and I guess it's gonna be something like a bitter. I wanted try something simple. What temp should I mash at and what do you guys think about my hop additions?

The hop schedule looks like this will be pretty bitter. Have you run this through a recipe calculator like the one here: http://beercalculus.hopville.com/recipe |
No I haven't thanks for the link. I want a little bit of maltiness.
