I was just wondering if anyone has tinkered around with tea in their brews? I was thinkin about making some sort of green tea IPA, any opinions/ advice?
Thanks
Thanks

EamusCatuli said:RoaringBrewer, I checked out your recipe and it looks delicious! I wish I had the capabilities to make it ( no AG setup ). I really wanted to use an IPA to mix with the tea, I think this would balance pretty well. Does any old tea brand work? (such as store bought). And if i read it right, you are just throwing the packets in a grain bag and putting it in at flameout for a few minutes?
Thanks for the help!
