I brewed an Outback Aussie Ale this morning that has a color rating of 11 and it is more like a 30. Simple process of seeping my specialty grains for 20 min at ~152, brought to a boil and added ~2.5 lbs of light DME and hops, continued to boil and added remaining light DME ~2.5 lbs with 5 min left in the boil, brought back to a boil for 5 min, added hops with 2 min left and then cooled. There was about 3 gal in the pot and after it was cooled put in carboy and topped off to get 5 gal.
Here are the ingredients:
5 lbs light DME
1 lb of large Crystal Malt (60 loviband)
3/4 oz Brewers Gold bittering hop pellets
1/2 oz Hallertauer finishing whole hops
What, if anything, did I do wrong?
