Hi guys! Say, I recently made a batch of something with equal parts Victory and Special Roast in it. I really liked it. Now I'm trying to get a mental handle on which of these grains adds what flavors so I can adjust the amounts intelligently. Since I have to do this five gallons at a time, I thought I oughtta mention it on here.
How familiar are you guys with these grains as part of an AG (or mostly AG) grainbill? What do they do? Do they add significantly to fermentable SG?
I'm thinking of using them in my bitter trials, using a pound of one in one batch and a pound of another in the other. First, though, I'd really like to get a batch of IPA going; it's my favorite style and it's taken me this long to get over being pissed at the price of hops; so my other question is, should I use one of these in an IPA?
Thanks heaps!
