Hi all. I am Matti from Sweden. Just ordered my first ingredients after reading "Radical Brewing". I haven't brewed before (just made cider from my apples).
I would be greatful if you could just give me a hint if I am in the right ballpark for making a pale bitter. Just something to start with as the first batch. I intend to follow Radical Brewings "Your first radical brew".
So, here is what I ordered for 19 liters (5 gal):
Munton pale dried extract, 2.3 kg. (5 lb)
Thomas Fawcett crystal malt grains colour 120-140. 500 g. (~1lb)
East Kent Goldings pellets, 200 g. (7 oz)
American Ale II Wyeast 1272.
So, what do you think? Is it a good first recipe to start with before doing something more adventurous?
