hi,
i started brewing straight to all grain but in 1 gallon batches. so i have a 3 gallon kettle that i use on the stove. all grain has always give me great beer so far.
i have started to brew all grain to stop spending 5-10$ per bottle on micro brew beer . i had eard that brewing all grain , you could play around a lot with the recipe to get what you like.
i admit i still spend 5-10$ once in a while but i am pretty satisfied with the beer quality i get from my 1 gallon batches ( about 8 pints per weekend)
now my question though.
in between those 8 pints if i wanted to have some good but not to fancy beer can i brew larger batch somehow in a 3 gallon kettle ?
i am aware of those coopers type kit which seems like a good solution but i was just wondering if i could mash more grain, boil and then dilute in the carboy.if so how do you adjust ibu ? or should i just go with unhopped extract.
my plan is pretty much to keep brewing 1 gallon all grain and brew a once in a while big batch to keep the fridge full in between.
ps: will a 6.5 kettle be efficient on a electric stove?
thank !
