    adjusting old partial grain recipe to full grain

    hi there I wanted to take this partial grain recipe and get rid of the LME: Pale (4.5 lb) Crystal 10L (0.5 lb) Carapils (0.5 lb) Wheat (0.5 lb) Light LME (3.3lb) so I've calculated how much percentage each grain makes up in the total grain bill (excluding the LME) and then multiplied it by the...
