I want to make a extract brew and have some ingredients laying around. I have 6.6lbs of generic amber ale extract, 1.5lbs of 2 row and 2 oz's of cascade hops. For yeast I have some safeale 05 and white labs American ale. I want to make something with what I have. I am willing to get a few things but don't want to spend to much.
I want to make something with a high gravity. I was thinking like a double IPA but less hoppieness, but with ale. How do u think it would come out with say 3-4lbs more LME and maybe and 1-2lbs DME. Using 2 oz's Magnum for bittering and cascade for maybe 15min and finishing with a starter of white labs American ale yeast and maybe some other type of grians? Any suggestions? I want to make something strong...
Hopefully I'm not to vague, and thanks for any info.
