GrahamB8 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I ran out of cubed beer and wort ingredients. For my next beer I want to make an all grain brew but I have no idea what I want to make. Post a recipe with the following critera: 1. Has to be an all grain recipe including brewing steps 2. You can only choose from the following hops I have in stock: Colombus, Cascade, Saaz, Northern brewer, Willamette, Target 3. Must be standard 20-23L brew 4. Try to make it your own and not just a copy/paste Everything else I will follow to the T as far as my system/expertise will allow. Ingredients may be substituted with what I can get from Craftbrewer grains Decision will be made during the coming weekend. Brew day will be the weekend of the 6th July. More experienced AG brewers will have a handicap [bandit] One recipe per person, edited posts will not be considered. Winner should they wish to accept it will receive a stubby of the brewed beer postage paid by myself complete with unique label.(after I have QC'd the brew of course)....If the beer is 5h14 then it was your fault....[lol] Why? Because I thought it would be fun [cool] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamB8 Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 Lets wrap this up, given the amount of reply's I guess it was a bad idea, the intention was more to get would be AG brewers to research an AG brew. I will make Bill's recipe but will send you both a bottle, not just from the results of this post but because of your contribution to both this forum and my own knowledge of brewing. (drop me a pm if you wish one to be sent) Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Nah the PMs and Email link on the forum doesn't work. I'd love to try the recipe. It was just something I threw up with the ingredients you gave and I wouldn't mind giving it a go myself actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im making a Helles tonight so they can both share the space and temps in my chest freezer 5kg Pils, 500g Munich 125g crystal, 125g Melanoidin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Graham, do you put the cube in the fridge to chill or do you let it cool down slowly at room temp? Also, do you adjust your hop schedule for no-chill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamB8 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Graham, do you put the cube in the fridge to chill or do you let it cool down slowly at room temp? Also, do you adjust your hop schedule for no-chill? I left the cube to naturally cool overnight then it went in my chest freezer at 10\xb0c My hop additions were: 30g @ 60 25g @ 1 15g in cube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Graham... maybe I should have mentioned but I had already adjusted for no-chill when I did the recipe. That's why I asked above if you chilled or no-chill..... oh well... it should still turn out a great drop. I have been meaning to do this now myself but just haven't had the time as yet.

Guest Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 lol, she'll still be ok mate. Just not as high IBU's and for this type of beer you really don't want it bitter anyway. No fail just a misunderstanding. All will be good I'm sure [biggrin] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
