Hey All!
I'm interested in brewing some 5 gallon batches of base beers, and then run some experiments by fermenting 1 gallon batches using different yeasts, fruits, dry hops, etc, etc...
I have the ability to do full boils (Yea new Penrose Kettle!!!) and have only done a few AG brews via Brew In A Bag, so I can't really get into things that require much mash or sparge complexity.
I'd like hear your ideas for a good, simple, base beers as a jumping off point to start experimentation. Ideally I'd like to see recipes for base beers for a few different styles, and maybe even things you guys have done to base beers that worked great...or didn't. Either extract or AG are welcome.
I'll make sure to update the post with recipes I use, variations, and outcomes.
Thank you all in advance for your input!!!
