Hey everyone,
I am a newer brewer - have brewed maybe 15 - 5 gallon batches to date and have gotten pretty good at following a recipe. My SGs are looking good and have gotten to a point where I brew with relative consistency provided that I have a recipe.
What I ultimately want to start doing is start creating my own recipes. Sorry if this is a duplicate post but I couldn't find much on this. I have made minor modifications (mainly to hops and very minor grain modifications), but I feel kind of lost among the thousands of possible ingredients that I could be using. I don't find it difficult to figure out what an ingredient in a recipe is contributing to the batch while brewing, but I'm not sure I'd know where to begin if I was trying to create a saison beyond the base malt.
Is this something I need to just try and screw up a bunch of times, until I get it? Is there a resource out there that I can look to to better understand what different changes will do to my beer?
Thanks in advance
