Hi - I'm brewing a 5-gallon Northeast style IPA but would like to have a final ABV of about 4 instead of the current version that is yielding around 5.5. Is it as simple as reducing the amount of grain in the recipe or do I need to do something else to try to compensate for the lessening of the body? I particularly like Stone's Neverending Haze, which has an ABV of 4%. The recipe I've been using calls for the following grains:
9 lbs. (4.1 kg) US 2-row malt
2 lbs. (0.91 kg) UK Golden Promise malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) flaked wheat
12 oz. (340 g) flaked oats
thanks much.
