Brewing a beer for the Bro-in-law as a belated Chrissy present. Borrowed a mates copy of Clone Brews, for him to pick something to brew. He has come up with a clone of Molson Ice. I have a couple of questions:
Grain bill is (double batching):
Canadian 2-row pale (9kg) - Any suggestions as to a substitute for this. Thinking straight pale malt, but don't know if there is much difference.
Flaked Maize/corn (680g) - where would I get this? Any specific prep work before adding to the mash?
Rice Hulls (454g)
Crystal Malt (340g)
Mash - It suggests mashing at 50C for the first 30 mins and 65C for the remaining 60mins. Have raised mash temps before, but not by this much. In the esky style mash tun, is adding boiling water the best suggestion here?
Boil - Suggests a 90minute boil. First recipe that I have done with a 90 minute, all others have been 60minute. Any suggestions here too?
Thanks,
Dusty
