I wrote a recipe for a brown ale, and am curious as to what you all think of it. Feel free to punch it into your recipe calculators and find out what the binary brewing world says. I personally rarely use those, but I'm open to what they can provide.
I'm looking for a medium colored brown ale, on the sweeter side, with a bit of spicy hop flavor, caramel flavor, and some raisiny presence. Higher ABV range, around 6.5% or so.
10 gal
14 lbs 2-row pale
2 lbs Munich
2 lbs c-40
2 lbs c-60
3 lbs c-120
.25 lbs chocolate malt
Mash @ 152-153F for 80 minutes
Boil:
1 oz. columbus 12.2% aa 60 min
1.5 oz. US tettnang 4.8%aa 15 min
irish moss 15 min
US-05 Am ale 1200ml starter in one carboy,
WY1338 European ale 1200ml starter in other carboy
Thanks in advance for the comments!
