Because of where I live I normally brew mostly extract and steeping grains and the occasional pm and every few months pack up everything an brew an all grain batch at my brother's house.
Well I currently have my buckets fermenters full but have a few 5 gal carboys (no longer secondary) and decided to start brewing 3.25 gal ag batches(on the stovetop). The way I see it I might as well have beer in them.
I'm brewing my first right now and it's a smash vienna(6.5# @154) and perle(0.5 oz (6.5%) @ 60,20,10,5,and flameout) according to beersmith og should be 1.054 and 38 IBU. I plan on using WLP 007 (it's the only yeast on hand other than non-labeled jars of washed yeast in my fridge). Any thoughts on how this will turn out(I'm 30 min into the boil), or on smashes in general(I plan on brewing a few more this weekend to fill the carboys)? Thanks!
