Help making a recipe

[buntung483]

Hi my name is josh I'm from Australia so sorry bout my measurements in metric. I've just gone through all my ingredients and made a list of what I can still use. I was just hoping I could get some help for a recipe either extract or all grain.

You have a lot of options. Do You lean towards American Pale Ales and IPAs or more subtle, maltier English ones. If you can give some guidance towards your tastes it makes it simpler to draft something.

Thanks for reply. I like alot of different styles at the moment but apas and ipas are one of the good old favorites. Any help will be appreciated

Nothing too fancy here. This looks like a mess of different malts, but that's because I'm piecing together your Pils, MO, and some Munich to get the quantity wanted. I've done 2 batches lately with what I've been calling a "countdown" grist of 4lb Pils, 3 Vienna, 2 Munich, 1 Wheat. For a pale ale I added 0.5lb CaraMunich III which was on hand. For the other, I swapped the Vienna and Pils quantities. I'm happy with both (although the latter was only a wort sample, as it's patiently waiting a pellicle to form from some sour bugs now).

Actually, this grist might play better with the 1318 yeast, but then I'd change the Amarillo and Centennial at 10/5/Dry to Tettnang/Hallertau/Liberty. Maybe I'm a bit of a prude, but I've never crossed British yeasts with American hops or vice versa.

That's my stab at it.
