I just made a berliner on saturday night. I did a 50/50 of wheat and 2 row and a bunch of rice halls. I heated the water to 168 and dumped it in the mash tun with the grain let it sit and cool until it was around 110 and pitched a big handful of unground 2 row into the mash and stirred. It is...
thanks for the idea. I was looking for some thing to play with while the snow was flying. I was thinking about 3lbs 2 row with a 1/4 lb molasses 1/8 lb chocolate malt and one hop addition at 30 mins.
I am thinking of doing a real simple grain bill. I want to use 2 row and molasses. Was thinking of doing a 1 gallon batch to try. I just wonder what the molasses will make the beer taste like? Has any one tried this?
I am in the same boat as Yooper. I would rather make and gather **** than buy at a store. I just made a batch of hop soap and 4 different size molds for soap making.
i did use a English ale yeast I think it was 1968. I am going to do the same recipe it was tasty but I just wondered what people thought about adding smoked malt and how much for a 5 gallon batch.
