I tried this one today.....went pretty smoothly, except I just did a single mash and single sparge....Got about 6 gals. It looks pretty nice, hope it turns out good.
Brewmaster's Warehouse makes it dead easy. Just select the recipe from their BrewBuilder and then it can automtically add the ingredients to your cart. And they have great prices.
Hey Ed, do you think Whitbread yeast would be good with this recipe?
I have used several different yeasts on this grain bill with (uniformly quaffable) educational results. I will routinely use 1056 Chico or 1098 London Ale.
I probably won't do the Irish Ale yeast again. It wasn't bad, and a couple of my friends sucked it right down ;-)
Not familiar with Whitbread, but if you like it on light to midweight pale ales you'll probably like it here.
From what I understand, FWH should not be used to replace a 60 min addition, because it behaves more like a 20 min addition. You may end up with less perceived bitterness than you intend. I have just started experimenting with FWH myself though, so I don't know firsthand.
I just bottled 5 gallons of this that I brewed about 5-6 weeks ago. Sample out of the 'shorty' (last not fully filled bottle) was delicious! Can't wait for this to be done bottle conditioning! =D Two thumbs up for sure.
Hey. When you bottled it, what did you use for priming sugars?
I believe Ed Kegs, otherwise corn or cane sugar would be fine.
MrVagabond: my clearest beers have beer 3 weeks in the primary and into the bottle.
Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try the Haus Pale as a primary only.
One more question about the priming sugar though. How much should I use with a 5 gallon batch?
How will this be with a 4 gallon boil instead of a full boil?
Why not just brew a 4 gallon batch instead of 5.5?
People do partial boils all the time.. so go for it! Just top up the extra water when its in the pail.
I don't think it's quite that easy. You're going to have to replace the fermentables you won't be getting.
Pale ale malt is 2 row. You'll be fine.
Alright, I think I'm going to make this recipe next weekend and I just bought my grains. Instead of regular 2 row, I bought Pale Ale Malt for my base grain. What do yall think about that?
I just bought a sack of pale; it's 3 SRM instead of 2, or so GW claims. So it's a little more like British than the standard 2-row. I plan to use it in all of my recipes where 2-row is specified.
Dry hops(slight mod) are just about done on my first try on this recipe. I'm moving to cold stabilization tomorrow, so I gotta empty the keg this weekend....
