Am I going to be disappointed?
Just got my next brew in, Stone Smoked Porter from AHS, I thought i had used the drop down menu to select a mini-mash version. But I go the full extract version.
I've only brewed 3 batches so far and they all have been mini-mash. My question is there going to be much / if any difference in the beer?
There is 8.5 lbs of LME, the recipe calls for adding it all at the beginning of the boil. I'm shooting to do a partial boil or 3.5 ~ 4.5 gallons. I just got a new bigger pot and will have to test how much my stove will boil.
Should I add 1/2 the LME at the start and the other 1/2 in the last five minutes?
AHS also recommended double pitching White Labs English Ale yeast for this. If I make a 2 liter starter, should I use both viles or would one be enough for this OG 1.068 beer.
Thanks...
So far I'm really enjoying all three of my brews!
