2nd Batch!!!

[TheFear1980]

I'm sprucing up my golden ale recipe this time an extra pound of light malt extract, adding a half pound of munich malt, an extra 1/2 tsp of irish moss, and I switched from cascade hops to willamette. Lets see how all these changes affect the beer and if I have a clue on how to make my own recipe !!! Wish me luck

Once you start experimenting, you'll never stop.

Make notes of your changes in case you hit on a big winner.

consider some extra hops to keep it balanced since your upping the malt bill. also, no need to add extra moss, the recommended amount is more than enough for a 5 gal batch.

I use Cascade and Wilamette hops a lot - while a little different in AA% and flavor and aroma profile, both are excellent all around hops for homebrewing.

Welcome to the hobby!

Cheers!

Well my 2nd batch is delicious!!! Although Im not sure on which I perfer the Cascade or the Wilamite. Both are very good. I might try the Golden Ale one more timeto try and perfect it. If not Im brewing up a Pale Ale next or Some sort of Strawberry experiment for my wife. Wont be able to decide til I get to the shop.
