Okay, so check it out. I've read DeathBrewer's tutorial extensively, but I still have questions. First I'll post the recipe I'm using, and then I'll ask away. I'm going for a black IPA.
Grain
3lbs. 2 Row
1.5lbs. Crystal 120L
.5lbs. Carapils Dextrine
.5lbs. Chocolate
.5lbs. Roasted Barley
That's 5 lbs of grain, so I'm thinking of using 2 gallons of strike water (as Deathbrewer suggested). One thing I'm not sure about is the mash temperature, and length.
Fermentables
3.3lbs. Dark LME
.5lbs. Cane Sugar
.5lbs Molasses
Just like my extract/steeping grain recipes, I'm going to boil for 60 minutes.
Hops
3/4oz. Columbus at 60
1/4oz. Columbus at 30
3/4oz. Columbus at flameout
1 1/2oz. Centennial at Flameout
1oz. Centennial dry hop
Wyeast London Ale 1028
Okay, I guess I need to know the amount of strike water, the amount of sparge water, the mash temperature and length. Also, maybe some feedback on the recipe?
Cheers,
Travis
