Plainbrad gave me this recipe for a "normal" stout
5G
60min boil
6 lb Pale Malt (2 Row)
1 lb Barley, Flaked
1 lb C120L
1 lb Roasted Barley
My addition; maybe 4lbs of blueberries at 5 minutes or flameout?
1 oz Fuggles (or Willamette at 60min
As or yeast I'm not sure I don't know any yeast flavors really..
And as I've been reading, I may get mixed up, lower mash temp = more fermentable beer while higher temp = less fermentable but dry crisp taste?
I was thinking mash in ( still learning terms sorry if they're incorrect ) at about 160*? And batch sparge at about 170*?
About 2.8 gallons I'll say 3 gallons to mash, 1 gallon to sparge and maybe 2 gallons to bring it to 6 gallons for boil then top off at 5 or 5.5 if needed?
Please correct me on my water usage this would be my second AG and last time I kinda winged it for the water for the sparge and top off :x
Well let me know if you guys think this may work? I saw threads on blueberry wheats, and I thought a blueberry stout would be good.
Prost! Brew on.
