Ingredients (All Grain, 5 gal)

Ale Malt; Powells Malt
Ale Malt; Powells Malt
Ale Malt is used to impart typical, warm mellow flavours to all styles of ales. Ale Malt is produced similarly to Lager Malt, but with higher curing temperatures of 95-105 degrees. These higher kilning temperatures are sufficient to remove DMS and grassy flavours, leaving the malt with a biscuit flavour and a hint of caramel and toffee from the oxygen hetrocyclics. Ale Malts are often used to balance higher hop levels.

2-Row Caramel Malt 80L; Briess
2-Row Caramel Malt 80L; Briess
Pronounced Caramel, Slight Burnt Sugar, Raisiny, Prune. 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 80L is a roasted caramel malt that imparts red to deep red color. • Use 3-15% in Amber and Red beers. • Use 10-15% in Bock beers. • Use 7-15% in Dark beers. • Use 10-15% in Porter and Stout. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.

Cara-Pils® Malt; Briess
Cara-Pils® Malt; Briess
Characteristics & Applications: • The endosperm is completely glassy and will appear to be darker than standard Brewers Malt. • Carapils® is a very unique dextrine-style malt that adds body, foam retention, and beer stability without influencing color or flavor. • Use to upgrade all types of beer, including light colored beers. • The non-fermentables in Carapils® are very advantageous in balancing body and flavor of dark colored beers. • May be used with or without other specialty malts. • Low usage of 1-5% will help achieve desired results. • Produced from AMBA/BMBRI recommended 2-Row Malting Barley varieties.

12/19/09 First brew: Didn't succesfuly Mash-Out. Added almost 3 gallons of 200 degree water. Temp only raised to 163 from about 152. Decided to sparge any way. For some reason had almost no loss during boil. I originally planned a longer boil then 60 min, but ended up boiling for almost 110 min, still had nearly 7 gallons of wort. I think this was caused by my burner not being powerful enough, the wort was just sitting at boil and not really rolling. OG-1.032, was expected to be 1.056, which I think it would have been, but I didn't feel comfortable boiling any longer. It is in the fermenter, if nothing else, will be a tasty, light, brown ale. Smelled great.... Will make again once I upgrade my burner to one with higher btu's, and use my current burner with a larger pot to have more mash out/sparge on hand.
addition to first note...

I did bottle the beer, snd it was pretty good. A light, summer ale perhaps... attempting to make this again. This time I will not bottle, and it will go in the keg.
