Hello,
I recently swithced to AG and was used to doing 12 gallon batches with extract.
I am able to do 10 G no prob (at least the first one). I have a keg that can safely
boil about 12-13 G to reduce to about 10G for pitching. My thought was to add more grains and get a higher OG and with the help of promash, dilute with another 2 G to end up with about 12G of wort. So maybe have something 10 G in the mid 1.050's range and dilute to high 1.040's. My style of beer would be a pilsner so something in the high 1.040's would be suitable and I don't mind giving up a bit of body.
So the question is...has anyone else done this? Any foreseable problems?
Cheers.
