Looking for some input on a proposed recipe for this weekend...here it goes:
Batch Size: 11 gal
Boil Size: 14 gal @ 90 min
Mash @ 152 for 60 min
Grain:
20# Am. 2-row Pale
1# Am. Crystal 90L
1# Chocolate Wheat
1# Dehusked Carafa III
1# Black Patent
1# Dextrine
Hops:
2oz Columbus 12.3% @ 60 min
Yeast:
White Labs Burton Ale
I doubled the grain bill of a previous 5.5 gal batch...chocolately with some sharpness to it.
The hops are a different story. I have Amarillo, Cascade, Centennial, Columbus, Galena, and Chinook from which to choose, Columbus being the most abundant in my freezer. I'm very open to suggestions regarding the hop schedule.
My thoughts were not adding any late additions could avoid overhopping the malt profile. Maybe a higher mash temp as well.
Thoughts, suggestions, advise...fire away, please.
