So i have this recipe me and a friend of mine have been tinkering with. we did a 5 gallon batch and it came out almost perfect (for what we wanted) but the hops weren't exact and we wanted a little more Alc%.
but we also wanted it to last longer then a night so we bumped up to a 10 gallon batch.
Its an IPA
the new recipe was
12 lbs Briess DME golden light
3lb - Breiss DME Sparkling Amber
2 lb - Cara-Vienna
3 oz cascade
2 oz centennial
4 oz willamette
6 oz citra
it isnt ready to keg yet, and i know im jumping the gun. but this was an expenive batch and i know all grain can be much cheaper. i was wondering if anyone could convert this to an all grain bill for me. and be more then welcome to throw in any extra tips when switching to all grain.
also can i still use pellets for all grain or should i switch to whole hops?
can i still use the same packets of dry ale yeast?
ive also seen boiling the hops in a grain bag the same as you would when extract brewing with grains. is this a common practice or should i just stick to dumping them in?
