Sooooooo I just wanted to try something new and just give an idea a whirl. I have been brewing extracts for about a year, but still have plenty to learn. If anyone has any feedback, the more the merrier. Thanks!
Honey Lemon Zesty Ale idea- idea is to create something like a farmhouse ale with hints of honey and lemon with a bit more bubbles
1 Can of ale extract
During boil add 1/2 lb honey and 1/2 bag hop pelleted (Cascade I think)
During steep, add the rest of honey & hop pellets.
5 gallon bucket for primary ferment with ale yeast
Secondary ferment in glass carboy, adding lemon zest (6 lemons) and add champagne yeast.
Only issue- I have a 6 gallon carboy that I use for wine making. What should I do with that extra space in container? Fill with distilled water, maybe boil honey with that?
Thanks all, and "Relax, have a Homebrew!"
