This is a partial mash recipe I made up for an American red that came out so good I pretty much have to post the recipe.
When I partial mash, I always start with 4 gallons of water. 1 gallon for mashing 2.5# of grains. 1 gallon for sparging. 2 gallons in my 5 gallon main kettle.
This recipe is for 5 gallons. I top off with the necessary tap water.
OG=1.056
FG=1.013
ABV=5.6%
0.5 lb Biscuit Malt
0.5 lb caramel 20
0.5 lb caramel 60
0.5 lb Munich (10L)
0.5 lb Victory
Mashed at 152 for 60 min and sparged at 170.
2 lb Light DME (60)
3 lb LIght DME (15)
0.5 Columbus AA 15.2 (60)
0.5 Mosaic AA 11.2 (10)
0.5 Amarillo AA 8.2 (10)
0.5 Mosaic (0)
0.5 Amarillo (0)
1 whirfloc tablet (15)

This is a great brew, a session beer, yet quite complex. Mosaic and amarillo is a great combination, first time I've tried them together. I LOVE Mosaic Hops but I have to say Amarillo did a great job "smoothing" them out. The malt character is the best, and balances the hops nicely. The color is not spot on, though. I should have added that 1oz of chocolate malt. Or maybe not...
