Hello all. I'm hoping to brew a California Common ("Steam") style beer over this coming weekend and was hoping for some input.
My tentative recipe:
Steam Burns
5.5 gal batch
Est OG: 1.053
Est FG: 1.013
Brewhouse Eff: 70%
SRM: 11
IBU: 39
7.0 lbs Pale 2-row
2.0 lbs Munich
2.0 lbs Vienna
0.5 lbs CaraPils
0.125 lbs Roasted Barley
6.9 AAU Northern Brewer ~ 60 mins (31.5 IBU)
2.8 AAU Willamette ~ 20 mins (4.5 IBU)
2.8 AAU Willamette ~ 10 mins (2.7 IBU)
Wyeast California Lager (#2112) yeast
Single infusion mash at 152º for 90 mins. Batch sparge, boil, etc.
I've intentially avoided the caramel crystal malts, and added the Roasted Barley for color and (hopefully) a toasty couterbalance to the rest of the grain bill. Honestly, the whole recipe is open season, so shoot away
