Like the title says...
So, I've got this recipe that calls for X pounds of Crystal-Y malt for coloring.
I want to sub-out half the Crystal for rye -- which adds almost no color. The other characteristics (change in OG/FG/ABV) are "close enough". So my question is:
If I substitute { 0.5X pounds of Crystal-2Y, + 0.5X pounds of Rye }, will I end up with [practically] the same color beer?
I'm futzing with an IPA recipe, and I don't want to "over-yellow" it to be out-of-style.
Thanks!
