Thinking of doing an American IPA style beer but with a little Special B and Carared. Anyone got any advice on this? I've put together a rough grain bill. Still not sure about the Carared - maybe I'd be better off with something else?
For 30 litres:
Light malt 5kg 71.4%
Carared 1kg 14.3%
Carapils 400g 5.7%
Crystal (40L) 400g 5.7%
Special B 200g 2.9%
Total 7kg
Plus a kg of dextrose. Hopville tells me I should get an OG of around 1064.
Going to use 60g of Simcoe and 60g of Cascade, a third boiled for 60min, a third for 30min, and a third added post-boil.
I'm still building my AG setup, so I'll be mashing everything but the light malt (will substitute for 3kg DME).
