The link below is my recipe. Posted notes there so will not post here. Can post recipe and notes here if needed.
http://hopville.com/recipe/883021/imperial-ipa-recipes/beagle-bier-ipa-1.
Next time will use Irish Moss and not dry hop to address clarity and excessive hoppy taste but do not have a clue how to give this beer more body.
Note: Applied advice on increasing efficiency. This brew was 51% but next brew was 59%. Part of advice was to increase grind but LHBS grinds grain and said a finer grind would turn grist to paste but I am not so sure about that.
Read one small or craft brewery grinds some grain course and some fine. Theory is course grain acts as filter for fine grain so mash does not get stuck or leach tannins. Going to a more distant LHBS for advise too but thought someone here might know.
Any advice on what grain grinder to get and what settings give a fine / course grind?
