Lite American Lager • All Grain • 5.5 gal

Alpha Queen

To brew on Tuesday Nov. 1st

October 31, 2011 am 04:32am

0.0/5.0 0 ratings

Ingredients (All Grain, 5.5 gal)

10.0 lbs Maris Otter Pale

Maris Otter Pale

An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.
3.4 lbs American 2-row

American 2-row

Yields a slightly higher extract than Six Rox brewers Malt. Tends to give a smoother, less grainy flavored beer. Some brewers claim they can detect a significant difference in flavor. Lower protein and will yield a lower color than Six-Row Brewers Malt
.25 lbs Munich TYPE II; Weyermann®

Munich TYPE II; Weyermann®

German-grown two-row spring barley (2004 harvest). Product Characteristics: Imparts strongly malty notes to finished beer. Intended mainly for dark ales and lagers. Recommended Quantities: Up to 100% of total grain bill Suitability (beer styles): Lagers: Oktoberfestbier, Märzen, Bockbier, Dunkel. Ales: Dark, Stout
.1 lbs Melanoidin Malt

Melanoidin Malt

Red Ales
.25 lbs 2-Row Caramel Malt 60L; Briess

2-Row Caramel Malt 60L; Briess

Sweet, Pronounced Caramel. Characteristics & Applications: • In contrast to Brewers Malt, glassiness is a distinguishing characteristic of Caramel Malt. The glassy endosperm creates the desirable non-fermentable components giving true Caramel Malt the ability to contribute body (mouthfeel), foam foam retention, and extended beer stability, while contributing color and unique caramel flavor. • 2-Row Caramel Malt 60L is a roasted caramel malt that imparts deep golden to red color. • Use 3-7% for Pilsener-style beers for balance. • Use 5-15% to provide color, sweetness and color to amber and red beers. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.
.5 oz Magnum - 14.5 AA% pellets; boiled 75 min

Magnum

Bred in 1980 at Germany’s Hüll Hop Research Center, this high-alpha variety is renowned for its exceptionally large, heavy cones. Hallertauer Magnum delivers excellent yields and, like many Hüll-developed hops, boasts a strong resistance to disease.
.75 oz Columbus - 15.0 AA% pellets; boiled 75 min

Columbus

Used mainly for bittering with some flavor qualities as well. Aroma is pleasant.
2.0 oz Cascade - 5.5 AA% pellets; boiled 1 min

Cascade

Spicy with citrus notes. Slightly grapefruity.
Wyeast 1056 American Ale™

Wyeast 1056 American Ale™

Used commercially for several classic American ales. This strain ferments dry, finishes soft, smooth and dean, and is very well balanced.
