I am starting 15 gallon batches, but i live far from a LHBS and dont have a mill so I want to buy a 50lb bag and use it all quickly, then sit back and enjoy the beer over a few months. So im planning on doing two batches and putting them in a 55gallon plastic barrel, then using the rest for a different recipe (the reason for the 55gallon barrel is I dont have many carboys).
For a 15gal batch, does this recipe work?
I plan BIAB with dunk sparge
16.5lb pale
4lb corn
2lb rice
2oz williamette
1oz Crystal
I scaled mine up in Beersmith for ya. Mine does have some rye and wheat in it, though. I also had a 60 minute boil.
