I'm on batch 8 now, and it'll be my first all grain. I concocted a recipe on hopville.com for a very basic dry stout:
8# canadian 2 row
2# roasted barley
3oz fuggles
6.0 gallon batch @ 1.25qt/gal
That's it. I wanted the most basic recipe to start.
My brew day schedule is below. If any of you seasoned vets can let me know if I'm way off on something, I would certainly appreciate it!
Down the rabbit hole I go...
1pm: Set up, start heating mash water
1:30: pour 3.5 gal 175 degree water into mash cooler, seal and let cooler come to temp
1:45 or when water is at 165: dough in
2:00 or when water is at 153: seal cooler for 60 min
2:40: start heating 1 gallon mashout and 3.5 gallons sparge water
3:00: mashout and drain
3:15: batch sparge with 3.5 gal of 170 degree water, drain
3:30: begin boil, add 3.0 oz fuggles (4.0%AA)
4:20: add whirlfloc and drop in chiller to sanitize
4:30: flameout and begin chill
4:45 or when temp is at 65 degrees, cover and let trub fall for 60 min
5:45: siphon wort off trub into fermenter, pitch, lock, and wait
