    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    Yeah, that did it. Moving the crystal from the 120 to the 60 made it just where I like it. I’m doing 1.5 lbs of the Munich lme, and 1 ounce of the crystal 60. What will that do in regards to flavor?

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    Will do! I just tried the recipe on brewers friend with the Munich LME and it’s a little too on the dark side for me. I’m thinking of substituting the Munich LME for a lite LME (4). Thoughts?

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    I unfortunately do not know about their grain percentages. But like you said: doing 1 gallon batches really makes it easier to handle if I need to rebrew. I think I’m gonna take your advice and do the LME. Doing additional research online, that seems to be a good way to go about this. I...

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    oh wow, I thought distilled wasn’t really recommended but if the LME brings That over then that makes total sense. For my need, I’m trying to relocate “buoy: pale ale” as close as I can, and the receipt appears to contain those grains. I’ve not done a brew with LME yet just DME, thus my decision...

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    @BrewnWKopperKat - this is awesome. Breaking down the yield is really gonna help me with my ratios when I try doing the recipe via my 1-gallon Carboy. That is so good to know about the IBU...that is a little high for what I want lmfao. For water, I am using spring water. For the yeast, I will...

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    Thank you so much for the reply and info! I have the brew masters bible book and was reading on hops and saw mt hood and willamette (which are based out of Oregon) so I wanted to give them a shot with this recipe to see how it taste. The book description of those two hops seem to be fine for...

    First custom recipe - Pale Ale...thoughts?

    Hello, I just started home brewing with craftabrew recipe kits but I haven’t found what I’m looking for in a beer. My favorite beer I’ve had so far has been Buoy’s Pale Ale from Astoria, Oregon and so I’ve done a lot of research into making my own first recipe. Before I begin buying...
