HOWDY!
well, i finally found a place for my fermentation fridge in my small man cave... going to throw yeast on my fruitcake ale tonight. so i need to start onto the pipeline!
so i think i want to make a few quick simple pale ales and IPAs and maybe a porter or 2.
however, i bought these hops about 4 months ago and hadn't had a chance to use them yet...
So, lets make this fun! i want to keep it around 5-6% or so.
each reply, name the poundage of type of grain, lets do 4 of those.
each reply after that, we will do a hop, oz and schedule

for example

1st reply
8lbs 2row

2nd reply
3lbs flaked barley

etc.

then for hops

-1oz simcoe 60min
2nd reply
-3oz centennial 15min

etc etc

hops to "waste" are
1lb centennial
1lb cascade
1lb simcoe

rules...

more then 4% less then 8%.
no crazy hoppage! (eg. 10oz simcoe @60mins)
only those hops apply as i would like to use them before they go tits up.
ibus... something above 40 but below 90

annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd go! :fro:

13 #s wild millet malt. What, you were looking for 8#s of 2-row? That'd be dull, now wouldn't it? Okay, okay - 12#s Maris Otter. Scratch that - DR beat me to the punch. How about .5#s of Rye flakes?
 
liking it so far! lets keep it flowin! :mug:

and nope, wasn't looking for those specifically; more of an example of what to do :tank:
 
Bump! One more grain and a few more hop additions to go!
