Well, it's getting to be fall and I'm thinking about maltier beers for winter. I want to brew the Dead Guy clone again, but I don't have pacman yeast. Does anyone have any ideas as to what would be a good replacement? I can ferment cool (around 60) and I loved that with the pacman.
Also, I last made it as a PM and now want AG. Here's my recipe:
13oz Belgiun Cara-Munich
13oz German Munich
7oz US Crystal 40 deg L
4lbs Alexanders Pale LME
4LBS LDME
(I substituted all XLDME)
1 oz perle 60 mins
1/4 oz perle 30 minutes
1/4 oz perle 5 mins
1/4 oz saaz 5 mins.
I used pacman yeast.
o.g. was 1.066
f.g. was 1.018
Would it be good to use maris otter malt for the pale LME and DME? Should I increase the Munich and CaraMunich? I was thinking I'd mash at 154 or thereabouts.
