I just finished my first All-Grain brew and it went great. I made Edworts Haus Pale Ale. So now that I have made one all-grain I have been scouting out my next recipe. I have found a recipe I want to make but they do not provide the sparge water temps. I know you don't want to be warmer than 170 but is there a rule of thumb when it comes to sparge water temps??? ,
Here is the recipe:
OG = 1.052 FG = 1.016 IBUs = 28 to 30
Ingredients:
7.5 lb. pale malt
1 lb. caramel malt (60° Lovibond)
0.5 lb. toasted pale malt (toast the malt on a cookie sheet for 30 min. at 350° F)
4 AAU Cluster hop pellets (1/2 oz. of 8% alpha acid)
4 AAU Cascade hop pellet (1 oz. of 4% alpha acid)
1 oz. whole Cascade hops
American ale yeast (Wyeast 1056 or White Labs WLP-001)
Step by Step:
Mash 7.5 lbs. pale malt, plus the caramel and toasted malts in 3 gallons water at 152° F for 90 minutes. Runoff and sparge with 4 gallons.
Add Cluster hops, boil 30 minutes. Add Cascade pellets, boil 30 minutes. Turn off heat, add whole Cascade hops (in hop bag), steep 30 minutes and remove.
