Edwort, thanks for the recipe, looks tasty! Couple of questions for you:
I only have a 5 gallon MLT, and if I stick with a mash thickness of 1.25 qts/lb that means I'll have a total volume of 5.1g for the mash. Is this the mash thickness that you use, or would you go with a higher/lower thickness? Also, you mention that the safale 05 is the same strain as Wyeast 1056...anything wrong with just using the 1056? Thanks!
You will need a bigger MLT to mash this puppy as I use 1.25 qts/pound thickness.
For us Noob's, could you give me an extract recipe (w/ steeping grains), as I still am not sure which grains can/cannot be steeped?

what kinda sparge do you use? I just did this recipe with a double batch sparge (no mash out) and the OG was about 1.054. Granted, I'm new to AG, but just curious as to your technique.

I just bottled EdWort's Haus Pale this past week and I'm planning to do this one as my 2nd AG next weekend. What kind of pre-boil volume would I be looking for with this since it is a 90 minute boil?
BTW- I couldn't get Centennials but Austin Homebrew has a Centennial-type pellet blend consisting of 70% Cascade and 30% Columbus for an AAU of 7.7%....
