I really am bad with extract / partial mash recipes as went from kits to all grain. What do you think of the above? Specifically I am looking for feedback on the following:
1) Aroma / flavor hops. I have plenty of leaf Cascade, Fuggles and Mt Hood. What do you think is best for this malt profile? Will the above be to malty?
2) Color. I have a decent bit of Crystal 60. Would you do more or less?
3) Yeast. I can do Nottingham, US 05 or US 04. Your opinions?
4) Any other input ? Please don't tell me it look like a Gueze !!
I just want to make sure that I do not make 13 gallons of nasty beer.
PS the liquid extract is from Austin HB and is spectacularly fresh.
