i am relatively new to homebrewing. i have made four kits so far, three have been bottled and one is fermenting. i am a big fan of hazed and infused and would like to try brewing it next. i found an all grain recipe which i have attempted to convert to extract. any suggestions/comments on the recipe would be greatly appreciated.
before i get started, the recipe i found was for a 10 gallon batch...i intend to make 5 gallons. im assuming it is ok to just half the ingredient list in this case, please let me know if i am mistaken.
i will be using 1.5 gallons of water in my boil. i would like to use more but have a tough time cooling and boiling larger quantities in my kitchen.
the all grain recipe i am working from had an OG of 1.051 and approximately 40 ibu.
i intentionally upped the hops a little because i have read that utilization will be reduced do to the size of my boil. additionally i opted for 30L crystal instead of 40L.
7.00 lb Pale Liquid Extract
1.00 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 30L
0.75 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine
1.00 oz Roasted Barley
1.30 oz Chinook (60 min)
2.00 oz Cascade (15 min)
2.00 oz Williamette (1 min)
1.00 oz Centennial (Dry Hop)
1.00 oz Crystal (Dry Hop)
