Rye Pale 2008

I took a couple of liberties with this recipe and now have 6 gal in secondary, clearing nicely. The sample tasted very good. OG was 1.064 (I wanted to increase the strength a bit over the original recipe), FG was 1.014. I used essentially the same ratio of grains. I toasted 1/2 of the Rye Malt, next time I will add extra Rye and continue to toast half (I think). Also tossed in a pound of Rice Hulls. Should be a good home brew. Thanks for the recipe. Should add that I use a RIMS system with a mix of gas and electric. I used a stepped mash, first rest 122F, mashed at 150, mashout 168 and sparge. Collected approx 8 Gal for a 6 gal yield. I use converted Sankes.
