Well I decided I should take my newly made wort chiller out for a spin so I wanted to make another recipe. I couldn't make up my mind between a porter and an irish red, but I figured a smoked baltic porter was a bit more complicated to design a recipe for than an irish red. So here goes, take a swing and tell me what I should do better.
Size: 5 Gallon
OG: 1.052
FG:1.014
IBU: 24
Color: 18
9.5 lbs pale malt (2 row)
.5 lbs roasted barely
.25 crystal 60
.25 crystal 20 (maybe carared if someone gives me a good reason)
1 oz Fuggles 4.5% AA (60 min)
.5 oz Kent Golding 5.5% AA (20 min)
.5 oz Kent Golding 5.5% AA (flameout)
WYeast Irish Ale yeast
single infusion mash at 148 for 1 hour
batch sparge
on the hop schedule, i might switch out fuggles for 1 oz williamettes if the brew shop doesn't carry fuggle pellets and if the AA is less on any of the hops i actually buy i will just use less at the flameout and more at 20 min.
