I just got all of my equipment to start All-Grain brewing and my sole purpose in doing so was so that i could begin coming up with my own recipes. I read in a David Miller book that he suggested starting with a Basic Recipe such as
6lbs pale malt
1oz hops
yeast
water.
and begin there.
I know this would not be the most desirable recipe, but i am looking to understand what i am tasting so that i can slowly work up to making my own more exciting recipe.
We'll i was considering starting out with a very basic American Wheat beer recipe and adding different ingredients to it once i have and understanding what i am tasting i will add more ingredients...
For anyone out there creating there own recipe's is this a good way to go about learning ? and also is the Basic American Wheat beer recipe below a good starting point.....
or should i simplify it more....
5lbs Wheat Malt
4.25 American Two row pale
1oz Centennial Whole leaf hops.....
6lbs pale malt
1oz hops
yeast
water.
and begin there.
