Well this is my first AG and it is my ABM Amber ale.
Recipe
9# Maris Otter
.75# cara munich
.50# crystal 60
.25# Special B
Yeast is Pacman
Hops schedule is:
.50 oz Newport at 60
.50 oz Newport at 45
.50 oz Fuggles at 30
.50 oz fuggles at 15
.25 oz fuggles at flameout
IBu's are right around 45- about the limit of the style
As far as the mash, it went absolutely perfect. Heated my strike water to 166 to try to hit my temp of 154. The temp was a little low about 3/4 of the way in so I heated up the last 1.5 gallons of water to 174 to hit a final temp of 156. It's a little high but it will finish at 154. I just checked and stirred about 30 minutes in and the temp was 155. This is going far better than I thought.
I'll keep you all posted as I get breaks.
Thanks to all those who helped me and others out on their venture into the AG world.
