Hello all,
I recently brewed an partial mash APA that I was pretty happy with, but I'm moving to all grain to save a little money and for the fun of doing it. I'd like to convert this recipe to all-grain and maybe tweak it a little bit, but I'm looking for a little help in setting the grain bill. The extract was:
Extra Light DME - 33.3%
Pale Liquid Extract - 44.4%
Munich light - 11.1%
Carapils - 5.6%
Crystal 10 - 5.6%
For the all grain, I was thinking:
American 2 row - 40%
Marris Otter Pale - 40%
Munich Light - 10%
Carapils - 5%
Crystal 10 - 5%
Does it make sense to use both 2-row and marris otter as the base malt, or is it usually one or the other? I'm looking to increase the malt complexity just a little bit over the extract batch.
Thanks,
John
