Hey everyone! First post! Been brewing for a few years and am stumped on what to do here. I hope someone can help.
I really wanna do a recipe out of the Szamatulski's Clonebrew's Vol. 2. book, the Watney's Cream Stout, using a partial mash method, but the math doesn't seem to work out.
Here's the extract recipe:
12 oz. 55L Bristish Crystal
12 oz. Bristish Chocolate
4 oz. Flaked Barley
4 oz. Roasted Barley
5 lbs. Munton's light DME
10.6 oz. Malto Dextrin
1.4 oz. Fuggles
The partial mash calls for 1.5 lbs. British 2-row pale malf with specialty grains for 90 min and says to omit 2 lbs. DME... huh? Ok, this doesn't make sense. From my calculations, I think it should be like 2.9 lbs. pale malt.
So am I right to question this? Do the speciality malts add extra fermentables with the 90 minute mash?
Thanks for any help. I really want to make this.
