I scaled to 15 because most people that normally do 10 gallon batches should have no problem accommodating 26 pounds of grist. A 10 gallon batch of the 999 Barleywine had nearly 30 lbs of grist. Depending on your boil kettle size, you should be able to do a 15 gallon batch (maybe with the help of a little FermcapS to assist in prevent boilover).
From most accounts, this beer is a huge hit and goes fast...much like Apfelwein. Sounds like a perfect candidate to brew copious amounts in time for Summer !!
Had to tweak the hop additions to get close to the original IBUs. I also bumped the Cara-Pils from 1.875 (Actual scale) to 2 lbs for ease of measurement but my Vienna is a little lighter Lovibond than BierMuncher's recipe calls. My ending numbers; SRM, IBU, OG, FG, ABV, etc are all within statistically insignificant values of BMs. I have a vial of 1056 and 2 packets of US-05, so thats what I am using for yeast.
