Bucket of C60

[Peruvian802]

A LHBS was closing down and I ended up buying almost 20 lbs of Crystal 60 that they had a blow out price on.

My APA uses 1lb per batch but I'm not sure how else to use this all up! Any suggested recipes?

I'd say you could use a bit more of it in something like an Amber/Red, maybe a Porter. You could probably use it to try and balance out a heavily-coffeed or roasty stout as well, but it'll still take a fair bit of doing to go through that much of it. The best answer is likely going to be brewing a bit more volume, rather than trying to shoehorn more crystal into a single batch. Aim to brew a few batches that are designed to sit for a while so you don't have to drink 20 gallons at once

British styles use some crystal malts, like porters or browns. Scottish and Irish beers use them. Pale ales (American) use about a pound per 5 gallon batch.

Graff? Brandon O's only uses half a pound per 5 gal, but you could probably bump it closer to a pound if you subbed out the DME for all grain.
