Hi all
I need some help..I am I am up to my 10th brew and through experimenting with hops and grain steeping(also a couple of failures) i have finally realized i love malty beers...My last brew was a Brewers selection 5 malts fresh wort,and it is sensational..but after tasting an endeavour amber from dan murphys i am after something more..I am trying to make an amber ale ,something along the lines of:
Morgans royal oak amber
1.5 kg caramalt
maybe fuggles or willamette hops
s04 or 05 yeast
up untill now i have tried crystal medium or carapils grain,200g steeped for an hour.The results have been great tasting beer..I am assuming that more grain will lead to richer/caramelly flavour..
what i need help with is how much grain is too much for a brew?I have just ordered a few different types from CB.
Victory
special b malt
wheat caramel
pale choc malt.
carared..
and i still have the above two.
i want to experiment with these and try and make a rich amber/dark ale..
I love JSAA,white rabbit,Stoke amber etc
cheers mark
