so i'm looking at the 60 minute ipa recipe in sam calagioni's book "extreme brewing" book. the recipe is by bryan selders (dogfish head brewery). recipe below....
pre boil tea
6 ounces crushed british amber malt
boil
7 lbs light DME
1/2 oz warrior
1/2 oz simcoe
1/2 oz amarillo
1/2 oz amarillo
fermentation
wyeast 1187 ringwood ale
1 oz amarillo
1/2 oz simocoe
bottling
5 oz priming sugar
and then i run across a clone recipe in BYO's hop lovers guide. recipe below....
pre boil tea
1.5 lbs 2 row pale malt
6.4 oz thomas fawcett amber malt
boil
4 lbs muntons light DME
late edition of....
2 lbs. 14 oz. muntons light liquid malt extract
irish moss
.7 oz warrior
7.9 oz simcoe
.7 oz palisade
fermentation
wyeast 1187 ringwood ale
.59 oz amarillo
.59 oz simcoe
.59 oz glacier
bottling
7/8 cup priming sugar
the first recipe calls for a full wort boil and the second calls for a 4 gallon boil. as i will be brewing inside, i will not be able to do that. here are my thoughts.....
steep the grains in two gallons water then sparge with 1/2 boiling water. bring to boil. add DME and hops as directed... it's a 75 minute boil.
should i keep about a 1/2 gallon of boiling water off to the side and add a bit in about ever ten minutes?
should i add some of the DME in the beginning and some in the end in order to get better hop utilization?
i've only brewed one beer so far and i have discovered that my stove is 10K btu's (gas). i know i can get 2.5 gallons to boil, but i haven't tried to get more than that. is there a max amount i can get to boil given those number of btu's?
thanks in advance.
