Ok guys I took the ingredients from a Brewers best 1 gallon DME and modified it. My last one came out ok, bit weak and I messed up and dry hopped making it a bit harsh on the bitterness but its still drinkable. So I decided to change it up some and still ended up screwing one recipe up
RECIPE 1
1.75 Gal Spring Water Post Boil (screwed up on my measurements, notes below)
16 ounces Pilsen Light DME
(once I realized my water mistake, I added 4 ounces DME at flameout hoping to correct my mistake)
Final total was 20 Ounces Pilsen light DME
4 ounces Brown Rice
1 cup of Honey
3 grams Yakima Citra @60
1 Gram Yakima Citra @15
Boil for full 60
I noticed OG wasn't where I wanted it so added in a simple 1/2 cup sugar to get it to 1.040
Since I screwed up on this was I was like #%^$^ it I will experiment so I split into two fermenters
Pitched Safale US-05 on one
Pitched fleischmann's off the shelf yeast on the other.
Started on 06/23
The one with Safale US-05 looks good, smells great
The fleischmann's is a bit skunky
(will re-do this one right sometime this week)
