I'm on the chinook/Simcoe express

Hey y'all. Im about to brew this batch, and I figured I would post my recipe here for some feedback/criticism. This is my second recipe written from scratch as well as second batch using a minimash method. STYLE: Pale Ale GRAVITY: 1.049 / 1.015 / 4.45% BATCH: 4.5 G / 3.5 G boil YEAST...

thanks for the input, friend! I have two more open fermenters (one 4.5 and on 5.5). I originally planned on brewing an american pale ale in the 5.5 g, but I'm more excited about this brew now!! UPDATED 5.5 Gallon RECIPE GRAIN TYPE: partial mash YEAST: WLP001 BATCH: 5.5 gallons GRAVITY: 1.0435...

Good catch. I wasn't so sure about my estimated fg. If I drop one lb dme, I'll drop about 10 grav points, bringing og down to around 1.043. With an fg of 1.012, the abv should be just over 4%. Considering the drop in og, I will decrease the long boil bittering hops a little bit and use the...

Thanks!

Understood correct. Vienna, C10, and hops stay the same. Thanks for the confirmation , I will keep the recipe as is. Lastly, I heard people doing 90 minute boils to avoid DMS of flavoring from Pilsen malt. Does this recipe call for a 90 minute boil?

Hey y'all! I just finished brewing an imperial black ipa (obviously got some help from folks here), and I just finished writing an american pale ale recipe that will be brewed in a couple days. Today I wanted to ask some recipe formulation questions regarding my brew on deck: a celebration...

I've followed both y'all's advice and finalized this draft of the recipe. I can't help but say I'm feeling a little ambitious with this one but very excited!! Quickedit: might replace the 1 lb amber dme with another pound light or extra light dme or 8oz maris otter or 8 oz crystal10 (never got...

Hey y'all, this is my first time brewing something high-grav, so I thought I'd share it with y'all for a critique. KALARAATRI imperial black ipa YEAST: Wyeast 1056 BATCH: 5.5 Gallons GRAVITY: 1.070 OG - 1.013 FG = 7.47% ABV BOIL: 75 min IBU / SRM: 95 / +80 FERMENTATION: 14 days @ 64 F MALTS...

Thanks for getting back to me. I was tripping about this all night and redid the math in the morning and ended up with 4 lbs wheat dme and 2 lbs Munich lme. I decided to drop the carapils to save the half hour time steeping (which is why I'm avoiding a simple partial mash for this brew). I've...

I don't have the equipment with me at college to run a partial mash yet. My original intent with the thread was to steep some grains in addition to the wheat dme (which I did not know contained barley, but after reading up on it - it makes sense). You spurred me on to do some more research to...

Thanks for your input, I'm still a little lost and feeling newbie - so if I could ask you a couple more questions... specifically about calculating weights: If I'm aiming for a 1.045 OG and I'm settling on a 60% DME wheat / 30% pilsner / 10% munich, how do I calculate how much for each...

Hi guys, its been about a year since I've homebrewed. Shame on me. I'm a little out of touch with malt compositions. I found this simple hefeweizen recipe around here, posted by HOOTER: Recipe Type: Extract Yeast: Danstar Munich Yeast Starter: Rehydrate Batch Size (Gallons): 5 gal Original...
