Yesterday I made up 2 batches of beer. The first was an IPA which I have done previously and am happy with the results. The second was my first attempt at this style, so I was looking for some input on my batch.
American Cream Ale
I used the following ingredients in a 55 minute boil:
3.3# Extra Light LME
2# Plain Light DME
1 oz Vanguard Hops Pellets (4.0 AA)
1/2 oz Vanguard Fresh Hops (?? AA)
Last 15 minutes of boil:
1 1/2 tsp Irish Moss
Last 5 minutes of boil:
1/2 oz Vanguard Fresh Hops
Yeast: WLP-008 Ale Yeast
As of this morning, there was slight activity in the airlock. I am not concerned about that, more the ingredient list and what I can expect from the items I have used. Also, what hop if any could I use for dry hopping improve the end result
Just looking for something light for the last few months of the summer.
All responses are appreciated.
Salute!
