All my beers have been 5 gallon mini-mash batches, white bucket fermenter, you know. I'm interested in trying a few unique recipes (Peanut Butter Porter, Pumpkin Ale) and I'm not sure if I will like them, so I'd like to make a 1-Gal test batch. Besides reducing ingredients (obviously), what other adjustments to be made? I've identified the following...
Any recommendations are welcome!
- Smaller fermenter, 6.5-Gal bucket leaves too much headspace I imagine. Any recommendations?
- How should I purchase yeast. I usually use Wyeast but that's a lot of money for a gallon.
- How would I measure such small amounts (ie: 1/5th oz of hops)?
Any recommendations are welcome!
