I am trying to throw something together that the girl friend will drink. I am not looking to crak out the mash tun, and am looking to use a few things I have on hand.
I thought of using the below:
3# Pilsen DME
3# Wheat DME
4 oz Carapils
Hops:
.75 cascade 60
.5 cascade 20
.25 cascade 5
Yeast
US-05
In addition I have some flaked maze laying around, and if I wanted to mash I could add (or substitute) maybe 3lbs pale malt I have laying around. She isn't a big hop or craft beer drinker, though she does try mine and enjoy them from time to time. I am looking to make a lighter cleaner homebrew that she would enjoy.
Also, thoughts on the hops? I have a lot of different hops I can sub for the cascade. NOT going for a bitter or hoppy feeling though.
