Tentative recipe adjusted for 5 gallon mash tun.
"R U Red Eye" for Rye PA
9.5 lbs 2 row
1.5 lbs rye malt
1 lb crystal 60
.5 lb carapils
.5 lb wheat malt
13 lbs total.
Shouldn't have a problem with that, do you think?
Also, should I adjust the crush for rye or wheat. Ive never used rye, but had no problems with 3.5 lbs of wheat in the past.

That's under 15% so you should be fine. Rye likes to be crushed up pretty good. I usually set the crush a bit finer, but I also do so with my wheat malt. If you're happy with your wheat malt crush, I wouldn't mess with it.8string said:
Just an FYI, I started using rice hulls in all my brews about 9 batches ago. Helped my efficiency by about 2-3 points so I've stuck with them. They're standard in my process now.

I didn't get a stuck sparge but it was real slow. I think I'll try using some rice hulls in future batches, especially if it includes flaked grains.
My volume was low by 1/2 gal and my efficiency was off by 5% which I suspect was because more wort was left in the grains than normal. Still my target gravity was nearly spot on.
Just my take on a RyePA.

"R U Red Eye" for Rye PA
9.75 lbs 2 row
1.5 lbs rye malt
1 lb crystal 60
.5 lb carapils

Ive got a super slow sparge right now with the above grain bill. Will definitely use rice hulls next time. I just hope it doesn't get stuck.

When would you use flaked rye instead of rye malt? does it produce the same effects?
Yep... it does.
The following rest helps:
Beta Glucanase / gum breaking rest. 95-113°F
EDIT: Fixed botched post. Also, rye malt is harder to get your hands on and like wheat I think more flavor is imparted my unmlated rye.

OK, Here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to make a Haus Rye by adding 2# of malted rye to my Haus Ale grain bill and add 1 oz. of Cascade as dry hopped and the first oz. as FWH.

Ed, I would suggest tettnanger over the cascade. I find cascade to citrusy for the rye. Depends on your tastes I guess.

I've been very happy with Liberty and Rye. Nice little spicy combo they make!
Here what I did for my last batch. Only changes I would make for my next batch is up the Rye to 4lbs and not dry hop for 6weeks.

OK, how does this look. It's a modifed version of Denny Conn's Rye IPA. Thanks to TastyBrew.com recipe calculator. That's one cool tool.
I'm going to use Safale -05 yeast with it so I think it will finish below 1.019.

I would be tempted to drop the crystal by a lot. I used .5 pounds in mine and I thought it was way to much. Next time I do a rye IPA im gonna drop it to .25 pounds.I also did a 1-1 on OG-IBU. And thought it needed more bitterness. But I might just be an over the top hop head.

I dont' know if it's going to be any good, but here's what I did today.
BCB Rye IPA
10# 2 Row Pils
2# Rye
2# Vienna
12 oz. Crystal 60L
8 oz. Flaked Barley
1 oz. Tettnanger FWH 4.4%
1 oz. Chinook 60 min 12%
0.5 oz. Chinook 30 min 12%
0.5 oz. Chinook 5 min 12%
Mashed in at 154 degrees for 70 minutes. Ran off 7 gallons and boiled for 90 minutes. It's chilling right now. I'm going to whirlpool it let it sit and rack clear wort off to the fermenter. Going with hydrated Safale -05.
I think this will be a big beer that will take some aging.

It's fermenting happily at 62 degrees this morning. I'm starting to ferment all my beers in the low 60s for a cleaner beer. I'll let this puppy for for a couple weeks before crash cooling.
The hydrometer jar tasted good, so I hope that is a good indicator. I'll dry hop in the keg.

It's now been 4 days after pitching the yeast and the air lock is still bubbling away regularly. I'm guessing the low fermentation temp of 62 degrees has something to do with this.
Nottingham would have finished in 36 hours max at 68 degrees, but I used Safale -05 for this batch.
I'm letting it go two weeks before turning the temp down to crash cool.

I used cara-aroma not Begian Aromatic so it is a bit darker( think American Amber/Brown) with less aroma and more malt and raisin/plum flavor

I recon a Rye IP needs 3-4 months minimum to be taste-worthy.
BierMuncher said:
When I said not right, I meant not right
If you look at the difference in color and flavor between Aromatic and cara-aroma you will see that it's not a RyePA anymore. If it's as good as my Rambler Owl(which I based this recipe on, just bigger), I may call it "Rye-B-Big Brown Owl" .
It should be something like Hop Rod Rye.
Yeah, but I'll try one at 2 just in case
