I'm trying to put together a recipe for SWMBO for a raspberry ale. The only catch is it can't be too hoppy or too malty.
So far here's what I have put together in BeerSmith:
Ratdog Raspberry Bleeping Ale
American Pale Ale
Type: Extract
Date: 04/03/07
Batch Size: 2.50 gal
Brewer: Boogs
Boil Size: 1.50 gal Asst Brewer: Cheryl
Boil Time: 60 min Equipment: Brew Pot (2 Gallon)
Taste Rating(out of 50): 35.0 Brewhouse Efficiency: -
Taste Notes:
Ingredients
Amount Item Type % or IBU
1.00 lb Extra Light Dry Extract (3.0 SRM) Dry Extract 66.7 %
0.50 lb Pale Liquid Extract (8.0 SRM) Extract 33.3 %
0.50 oz Cascade [5.50%] (60 min) Hops 29.7 IBU
0.25 oz Cascade [0.30%] (15 min) Hops 0.4 IBU
29.00 oz Raspberry Frozen Concentrate (Primary 5.0 days) Misc
1 Pkgs Cooper Ale (Coopers #-) Yeast-Ale
Beer Profile
Est Original Gravity: 1.025 SG
Measured Original Gravity: 0.000 SG
Est Final Gravity: 1.006 SG Measured Final Gravity: 0.000 SG
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 2.4 % Actual Alcohol by Vol: 0.0 %
Bitterness: 30.1 IBU Calories: 0 cal/pint
Est Color: 3.0 SRM Color: Color
Carbonation Type: Corn Sugar Volumes of CO2: 2.4
Pressure/Weight: 1.9 oz Carbonation Used: -
Keg/Bottling Temperature: 60.0 F Age for: 28.0 days
Storage Temperature: 52.0 F
I'm not sure how much gravity the frozen concentrate will add but I'm suspecting from other recipes I've seen that it will be in the area of 1.050ish which should finish out to somewhere around 1.010 hopefully.
Any thoughts on improvements to this recipe or things to watch out for using concentrate?
This will be my second batch and my first recipe I've tried to put together myself.
