July 17, 2004 pm 05:51pm

0.0/5.0 0 ratings

Ingredients (All Grain, 11 gal)

10.00 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
3.00 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.
3.00 lbs American 6-row Pale

American 6-row Pale

Tends to increase lautering efficiency due to a stiffer husk. May be used as the base malt for any beer style. The enzymes in all varieties of the current crop are sufficient to support high percentages of specialty malts and adjuncts.
.75 lbs Belgian Aromatic

Belgian Aromatic

Imparts a big malt aroma. Use in brown ales, Belgian dubbels and tripels.
2.50 lbs Belgian Cara-Pils

Belgian Cara-Pils

Significantly increases foam/head retention and body of the beer.
2.0 lbs Crystal Malt 10°L

Crystal Malt 10°L

Sweet, mild caramel flavor and a golden color. Use in light lagers and light ales. Characteristics & Applications: • In contract 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. • Caramel 10L is a roasted caramel malt that imparts golden color. • Use 3-7% for Pilsener-style beers for balance. • Use 5-15% to provide color, sweetness and color to light amber beers. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.
.25 lbs Crystal Malt 60°L

Crystal Malt 60°L

Sweet caramel flavor, deep golden to red color. For dark amber and brown ales.
