So... ive got a couple of extract kits under my belt and they have all turned out pretty well. So I am thinking it is time to step up to all grain, but being the impatient SOB that I am.. Im going right into designing my own recipe and not even bothering with a kit first... I know.. probably a bad Idea.. but I got into this with the idea that I could make my own beer, that no one else has done before, even if it is just a slight variation of a tried and true...
So here is my first stab at a recipe.. Please let me know what ou think.. If I am way off base and this will suck, or if I am at least on the right track.
A Ginger Bread beer for the holidays that the SWMBO wants.
Grain
7lbs Marris Otter
1lb Crystal Malt - 120L
12 oz Biscuit Malt ( I read a little goes a long way)
Hops
1 oz Northern Brewer at 60 minutes
.50 oz East Kent Goldings at 30 minutes
Spices (5 minutes left of boil)
.25 tsp Allspice
.25 tsp Nutmeg
.50 tsp Ground Ginger
1 Cinnamon Stick
4 oz of molasses at flame out
Well,
Thats it.. Let me know what you think, please.
