Hi fellow brewers!
This was the best christmas in my life, when I came home on christmas day there my wife stood with a big box with the name Speidel on it.
I had been talking about starting brewing beer and was planning on buying regular pot equipment, but she beat me to it
So now I have a spanking new 20L Braumeister and are trying to read up on recepies, do's and dont's when it comes to brewing.
First up, I want to make a regular Pale Ale and have some stuff already:
_Malt_
5kg of Pilsnermalt (Sweden)
5kg of Pale Ale (Belgium)
1kg of Havremalt (Sweden) -- Oat malt
1kg of Cara Gold (England)
1kg of CaraBlond 20 (Belgium)
_Hops_
100g Mosaic pellets 12.8% Alpha
100g Citra pellets 13.2% Alpha
100g Simcoe leaves 14.0% Alpha
100g Columbus leaves 12.4% Alpha
_Yeast_
1 bag of dry Lallemand Danstar BRY-97 American West Coast @ 11g
My first take on a recipe was this:
15L water
3kg pilsmalt
500g Cara Gold
Mash for 60 mins @ 65C
Boil 60 mins
10g Columbus @ 60 mins
10g Mosaic @ 45 mins
5g Mosaic @ 10 mins
5g Simcoe @ 10 mins
5g Mosaic @ 0 mins
5g Simcoe @ 0 mins
5g Columbus @ 0 mins
No dry hopping.
I tried to put this into the BeerSmith desktop app, but couldn't find all the ingredients.
But I would like some input on the recipe, any takes on IBU, ABV and sugerlevels (as in suger taste) when it's done?
Happy Brew Year also 2016!
