So here's my first attempt at a RIS recipe, looking for some feedback:
I may remove the carapils, because I'm not sure it's going to be needed with everything else I've got in there to promote head retention/body. I may also reduce the total amount of crystal, maybe 8ox each of 60 and 120 instead of the 1lb each currently in it here. I've got a few recipes to brew, but I want to brew something next week and this one might end up being it.
