1 Gallon All Grain Recipe

[Hannah Stewart]

Does anyone have a good 1 gallon AG recipe or no where I can find one for a nice smooth American light beer?

Are you looking for a recipe for light American lager or just an ale that is not too heavy?

This one fits the second class, there is a 10gal recipe so all you need to do is divide by 10

If you want a drier beer maybe skip the carapils and crystal 10 and use base malt in it's place or add some corn or cane sugar.

If smooth means less bitter skip the 35 and 20min hop additions

I recently did a german leichtbier, but the bitterness is more than an American light beer. This would be how I would modify that beer to be an American light lager recipe.
