This weekend I plan to brew up my first partigyle recipe. Last weekend I made a 10 gallon batch of pale ale using Safale US-05, so I'd like to reuse the yeast cakes in each of my 7 gallon buckets. I haven't made a red ale in a while and would like some recipe advice. BTW, I'm a fly sparger and use a 10 gallon rubbermaid cooler as a mash tun (I know, a bit on the small side for a heavy beer)
I'd like to have either 1) a 5 gal high gravity and 5 gal med gravity red ale, 2) a 5 gal high gravity red ale and a 5 gal med gravity "other" beer, or 3) a high gravity 5 gal "other" beer and a 5 gal med gravity red ale. In other words, I want two 5 gallon beers, at least one of which is some type of red ale (I hope thats not too confusing). I tried searching the recipe database, but I don't know which recipes would be well suited for partigyle brewing. And given the constraints with my mashtun size, I'm looking for ways to make this happen (I'm willing to have a long brew day). Thanks in advance for any advice.
