I want to boiling a batch of this is everybody still using the original recipe on the first page--
Will this work? It sure doesn't smell good.
I would not use something that's potentially bad in your beer.
Had anyone ever subbed m.o. for 2-row?
No. It will be dfferent (darker, maltier) but not too much. Go for it.
Haven't had a chance to look over all pages, have brewed this many times note with great success, it's become my summer beer, and if I could ever brew enough my all the time beer. Had anyone ever subbed m.o. for 2-row? I have #20 of mo and if I didn't need to purchase 2 row that would be great. But if I do then I will. Planning on a 24 gallon batch this Saturday, love it at apart 87% eff the grain bill is still under 25 lbs! Id appreciate any and all feedback!
Cheers
So, I got about 12 or more pages through this thread and I really want to try this brew. I did not find any thing about a smaller all grain batch.
My question would be...has any body tried a smaller 3 gallon all grain batch? If not, would you have any recommendations on making a smaller batch?

Take the recipe and put it in this recipe database. www.malt.io
Then scale the recipe accordingly.
Are you normally an All Grain brewer?
If not, I can direct you to a very simple light beer recipe.
Can you give a suggestion on the best hops to use to replicate Miller Lite?
And then also your favorite hops for this?
Yes, think AE in the secondary for a beer that's too sweet would do the job quite well.
I've done the AE on extract amber and dark. Both turned out great. Both beers with 3.3lbs of extract and a pound of honey. They were much like a Killians and Michelob Amber Bock.
Well it worked... It dropped to 1.008 so far. Thanks for the help, the beer is so much better now.
I also brewed your recipe. I call it Miller the Muggle... hopefully it will keep the beer muggles who show up at my house from drinking my good stuff.
The beer is pretty good. I opted to use Hallertau, but I didn't use the AE. I regretted the decision as the beer ended up being a little heavy for most BMC style drinkers. Next round, I will use the AE and will use cascade. I also didn't dry hop with the Hallertau, just did 0.5 oz at flameout instead.
I'd repeat what you did but add the AE. I don't always dry hop.
Next round do the hallertauer and AE. Reserve the cascade for next spring.
Thoughts on using Notty in place of the US-05?
Alpha-Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down complex sugars in the mash. At room temperature it works much slower, but it converts carbs to fermentable sugar. It will lower your terminal gravity (since there are still yeast present )and eventually you get a beer with no body, like miller lite. Yeah,I don't know what difference it would make, primary vs. secondary.
It's would be cleaner and the AE would only have to convert the left over complex sugars.
People have done it both ways. I prefer to do it in the secondary for clarity.
