Hi brewers,
i am planning to do a simple single malt beer but would like to try a magnum and US Saaz combination. US-05 for the fake lager thing...
I would love to have the quantity i have of US Saaz, for some Czech ones but i don't. Only got the US version.
I don't want anything over the top hop wise, but i would like some suggestions as to quantities, times, and whether people have found this combo good or not.
I'm currently doing 20litres into fermenter, no chill.
Here's what i was roughly thinking:
4kg Pale Pils Malt 66 for 60
90min boil:
Magnum to 25-30 IBU's for 60minutes
US Saaz for flavour/aroma flameout - no chilling so i guess will still add a considerable IBU count unless i can quickly get it sub 80 deg.
any thoughts would be rad.
Cheers,
Nath
