hi again all. well about 10 days ago i brewed my first beer, an american wheat, and i cant say i didnt rush everything, i bottled it after 6 days, and i just opened my first bottle 2 days after bottling, and yknow what?
ITS AWSOME!! even being as green as it is I have to say its better than most of the swill ive been buying for far far too long. nice citrus note, reminds me of hoegarden without the coriander, great even with the little fiz its got from 2 days in the bottle.
tommarow i start my first partial mash and im now totally psyched.
fyi heres my recipe i made for tomarrows brew
Amber cream ale
1.5 lbs homminy grits
3.25 lbs amber LME
3 lbs pilsner malt
1 oz palisade hops (7.4% alpha 8.4% beta)
hopefully ill be using the washed yeast from my first beer, if i did it right, im an ambitious sonuvagun aint i?
any comments on the recipe greatly appreciated
