Hey all,
I'm hoping to do my first SMaSH recipe and my first pilsner. Since this is part of a learning process, I'm making it as center of the ranges for OG, IBUs, & color that I can on Beersmith 3. I figure this gives me a good starting base from which to compare future experiments.
Do you see any glaring errors I'm making? Thanks for any and all advice!
Feel free to ignore the H2O if that's not your bag
