I am making my first extract batch that is not from a kit. I am attempting a hoppy red ale 3 gallon batch. I found the below recipe:
3 pounds Light liquid malt extract
.5 pound CaraRed malt, crushed
1/4 pound Crystal 60L malt, crushed
1 ounces Black Roasted Barley malt, crushed
.5 ounce Centennial Hops60 minutes
.5 ounce Centennial Hops15 minutes
.5 ounce Amarillo Hops5 minutes
.5 ounce Amarillo Hopsfor dry hopping in secondary
The only yeast I have is an 11.5 gram packet of safale US-05. How much yeast do I need to use for this size batch?
Also, I would like to be pretty hoppy, but not over the top. Should I up the hops on this?
Thanks
