Hello, this is my first attempt at coming up with own recipe and was hoping I could get some constructive criticism for you all.
Here is the recipe below:
8.5 lbs 2 Row
1.0 lbs Cara-pils
1.0 Crystal 20
1.0 Crystal 60
1 oz Perle - 60 min
0.5 oz Cascade - 15 min
0.5 oz Amarillo - 15 min
0.5 oz Cascade - 5 min
0.5 oz Amarillo - 5 min
Yeast: Reused 1056 slurry
I'm wondering if I really need a 1 lb of crystal 20 and 1 lb of crystal 60. I'm looking to add some body, color, and a little "depth" to the overall taste while keeping the IBU's somewhat in control. I like my APA's hoppy but closer to balanced than out of control.
