Hey, I was going to make an APA, that was basically 9lbs of 2row and 1/2lb of crystal 40 with chinook/cascade hops and S-05
but ive kept altering the recipe so its now 4.5lbs 2row, 4.5lbs vienna (as a maris otter substitute) and still 1/2lb crystal, with chinook for bittering and fuggles for flavour
i want to use S-04 and just go right ahead and make an english style pale ale, but i've heard so many bad or conflicting things about S-04, that basically it isnt the ultra safe S-05 (which i completely trust) and might have wierd flavours
is it true?
