Hey guys,
I have a dilemma and was hoping our trusty homebrewing community can weigh in here. I got a little nostalgic this evening and decided to try and convert my very first brew to AG. It was an extract kit for a Cream Ale picked up at my LHBS, which is where I started. I'll post both recipes. I use BeerSmith2 and the convert feature works great, except the color of the AG version is lighter. I rounded the numbers because they were slightly fractioned. But, any ideas?
Original Recipe:
6.6 lb - Briess Pilsner LME
1.0 lb - Briess Pale LME
1.0 lb - Flaked Maize
1.0 oz - Perle @ 60
1.0 oz - Liberty @ flameout
Wyeast 1056 - American Ale Yeast
BeerSmith Converted AG Recipe:
9.0 lb - 2-row Pils
1.0 lb - Flaked Corn
1.0 oz - Perle @ 60
1.0 oz - Liberty @ flameout
Wyeast 1056 - American Ale Yeast
