So...last week i purchased 10 lbs of Vienna malt to make my 1st batch for the SMaSH consistency test, but that got put on hold because of the construction of my fermentation cabinet (new thread with pics to come soon.) The cabinet will be finished and i can use it tomorrow, but i don't want to use the old grains for my consistency test, so i figured i would just use them for another beer.
i came up with an amber ale so i could also get rid of some american hops i've had sitting around for a while. The grains are set, i'm going to buy them now, but let me know what you think of the hops. I have about this quantity to use up:
1 oz Columbus
2 oz Amarillo
0.5 oz Centennial
Here is my initial thought...any suggestions?
