So a friend of mine really digs this beer and so I told him that if he bought the supplies, then I would supply him some beer. So ten gallons are about to be brewed up.
1.065 / 9 SRM / 46 IBU
75% 21lbs Pale Malt (called for two row, I am going to use Pilsner)
6% 1.75lbs Wheat
6% 1.75lbs Munich
4% 1lbs C60
9% 2.5lbs C10
1oz Northern Brewer 60min
.25oz Summit 60min
2oz Willamette 30min
1oz Centennial 30min
.25oz Summit 30min
2.5oz Cascade 1min
2oz Cascade and Centennial Dry Hop
1968 Wyeast at 66*f for a week
I don't have faith in my ability to mash at the elusive 160, so I am going to aim for 158. I want to keep the beer relatively sweet, but at the same time I don't have the extreme temp control so I can't go from 65 to 67 to 68 and finish at 70. I can keep a constant 65 and then get it up to about 75 for a Diacetyl ridding rest. So in order for me to make sure I don't end up with 1.025 beer, I am going to be mashing at 158.
I made the mistake though of not getting the right Crystal and instead grabbed 115, so I will have to figure that one out. Maybe brew on Teusday instead of Monday.
I used the Jamil recipe as a base and followed it mostly to the line. I changed up the summit at 30min and the mash temp and the base malt (I already have a sack of pale malt and don't want to spend $40 for more just because).
EDIT 9/19/09: I am going to post my final final recipe so that people can see how I did it differently.
OG 1.061 / FG 1.016 / IBU 46 / SRM 9 / ABV 6.0%
75% 21lbs Weyerman German Pilsner
6% 1.75lbs Red Wheat
6% 1.75lbs Munich 6.5L
4% 1lbs C60
4.5% 1.25lbs C20
4.5% 1.25lbs CaraPilz
.25oz Summit FWH
1oz Northern Brewer 60min
.25oz Summit 60min
2oz Willamette 30min
1oz Centennial 30min
.25oz Summit 30min
2.5oz Cascade 1min
2oz Cascade and Centennial Dry Hop
1968 Wyeast at 68*f for a week and then upping the temp to 75* for a week, racking to secondary and dry hopping for a week. Then bottling half and kegging half. The bottles hit their prime about week 4 and the keg was kicked by week 3.5 so that worked out just fine
