Can a cream ale contain crystal malts as well? I had considered a small portion (1/4-1/2 lb) of 20 and reducing the flaked barley a little (1/4 lb). It would give it 4 SRM's but I'm thinking of a little flavor and character.
This is what I have so far (5.5 gal partial mash/partial boil):
3 lbs ultralight LME (FO)
3.5 lbs 2-row
1.5 lbs flaked corn
1 lb flaked barley
0.6 oz Liberty @ 70/7 mins
0.8 oz Liberty @ 21 mins
US-05
1.049/1.010
5.2% ABV
16 IBU's
3 SRM
