Just wanted to send a "thanks" out there to "Joe." Wherever you are. I downloaded a whole bunch of recipes from beersmith when I first got the program. Among them was one called Joe's Irish Red Ale. I usually make a very small batch of any new recipe when I first try it (1-3 gallons) so as to not waste beer.
In doing the conversion in Beersmith the numbers came out fine. I did make a small mistake at the brew shop and mentally moved the decimal place of the chocolate malt one to the left. Since this was a relatively small amount of grain it didn't have a huge impact but you can definitely tell the darker color and slightly more chocolate flavor. Overall, this is one definitely worth making. I plan to do a much bigger batch to share with friends in the very near future. This time, I'll pay closer attention to the numbers.
Thanks again Joe. Great recipe!
