Was wondering if many people make this kind of beer or have made it sucessfully and would like to comment on what I'm about to do. This is my 4th brew, the first being only 3 weeks ago. Couldn't resist tasting it tonight after only 8 days in the bottle and I'm pleasently surprised (cpa can ).
My recipe is as follows for LCPA
1kg Traditional Ale Malt grain
250g Malted crystal
Steep grain @ 68c for 60 - 90 min
strain & rince with more water
Add 1kg powdered light malt and boil 30 min
After 15 min boil add 25g cascade pellets
Add 25g cascade at last minute of boil
Can of Pale ale added to fermenter 1.7KG
Yeast is Wyeast 1272
Does the above sound reasonable to make a good drop? I'm enjoying this home brew caper. Even convinced the wife we need a new (beer) fridge.
Cheers
