I did my first partial mash a couple weeks ago and it was a blast. So I went and got myself cooler HLT/MLT setup to try my first all grain recipe. I wanted to start with something simple so I figured I'd make a basic APA with Nugget for bittering and Cascade for flavor. I'm including the lactic acid as everything I've read says that pH is crucial in all grain. I don't have a water report or profile but I use filtered tap water and my extract/partial mash beers taste great.
