Hey beer peoples,
I am hoping I can get some advice on the following recipe, this is about my 17th extract batch, but the first with an expected abv above 6.5%
Any comments related to the recipe would be great, thanks!
Recipe:
***Adjunct Grains: (Steep for 20-30mins)
8 ounces carapils
4 ounces C-40
4 ounces C-60
4 ounces Victory or Munich Malt
***Fermentables:
3 lb Dry Extra Light DME - add at (before) 60mins
6 lb Gold LME - add @ 40mins
1 lb corn sugar - add @ 20mins (aid in uping ABV without leaving residual sweetness)
***Hops: During boil all 1 ounce additions
60min - Simcoe
45min - Chinook
25min - Centennial
15min - Chinook
10min - Centennial
5 min - Simcoe
(Should be ~92 IBUs)
Dry Hop - 2ounces of Simcoe and 2 ounces Centennial for one week at end of secondary
***Extras:
Maltodextrin 4 ounces - add @ 10mins
1/2 Whirflock tablet - add @ 10mins
*** Yeast:
1.5-2 packets of Safale US-05
Want to ferment at low end of range, shoot for pitching around 70-75deg
and letting it come down to 60-65 (Adjust Room temp if necessary)
______________________
According to BeerSmith
Estimated O.G. = 1.081, 92 IBUs, Color 11 SRM, Estimated ABV=8.7%
Expected F.G. = 1.015
***Primary Ferment for 2 weeks
***Secondary 3-4weeks (last week dry hop with 4 ounces simcoe/centennial)
***Bottle
