I am about to brew a Cincinatti Pale Ale as described in John Palmer's book, which is an extract-only recipe (i.e. no steeping grains) using a total of 5.1 lbs of DME. I want to spice it up a little bit by steeping 0.5 pounds of 20-lov Crystal malt before the boil.
I was wondering by what amount I need to reduce the amount of extract I add to stay close to the same OG of 1.045? Or would it be "safe" to add the crystal malt without adjustment to end up with a slightly bigger beer that's still true to style?
