This is for a 6 gallon batch with 75% Efficiency:
73% 7 0 American Two-row Pale info 37 1 ~
10% 1 0 Rye, Flaked info 36 2 ~
6% 0 10 Chocolate Rye Malt info 31 250 ~
5% 0 8 Caramel/Crystal Malt - 40L info 34 40 ~
4% 0 6 Caramel/Crystal Malt -120L info 33 120 ~
1% 0 2 Black (Patent) Malt
For hops, I have 4oz of Delta I wanted to use:
2 oz at 60min
1 oz at 15min
and 1 oz at flameout
the AA for the hops is 4.5%
For an OG of 1.045 and 30IBUs
Was thinking about using WLP001.
Looking for an interesting dark session beer.
Two questions:
- I added the Black Patent for color as the Chocolate Rye is lighter then normal chocolate. Would I be better upping one of the other grains for a darker color and dropping the patent?
- Would anyone dry hop with an oz of Cascade? I had a Stone Dark Ale recently that had cascade and it was a nice match with the dark malts.
