I'm brewing an Irish Red this Sunday I'm using the following recipe: http://byo.com/mead/item/1868-irish-red-ale-style-profile
I went to my LHBS yesterday and all they had was 1 oz of crystal 40. I got that 1 oz. I also have on hand plenty of Crystal 20 and Crystal 120. What should I sub for the missing 5 oz of crystal 40?
Recipe
Irish Red Ale
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.053 (13.2 °P) FG = 1.014 (3.5 °P) IBU = 25 SRM = 18 ABV = 5.2%
Ingredients
9.9 lbs. (4.5 kg) Crisp British pale ale malt or similar British pale ale malt
6.0 oz. (170 g) Great Western crystal malt (40 °L)
6.0 oz. (170 g) Great Western crystal malt (120 °L)
5.0 oz. (142 g) roasted barley (300 °L)
5.25 AAU Kent Golding pellet hops, (1.05 oz./30 g at 5% alpha acid) (60 min.)
