I have purchased the book "Designing Great Beers" and have read it. Now I am beginning to formulate my own recipe. But since this is my first attempt at my own recipe, I wanted to brew a small batch just in case it doesn't turn out good, I will know without wasting 5 gallons of beer. I have found a pint beer bottle and have fabricated a stopper and an airlock to fit it. I want to try to Ferment just pints batches of my recipe until I get it where I like it then brew a full batch. As I may have mentioned before, I am in culinary school and I tried converting the Beer recipe just like I would a food recipe that I wanted to reduce. But I end up with some pretty small, hard to measure ingrediants for instance, I end up needing to use .05 of an oz of my bittering hops. Is there an easier way I could accomplish this very small batch brewing or am I on the right track?
