Using the same grain bill for different beers. I am sure others have done and still do this, but I am trying to get ideas.And yes, I did a search and found zip.
As an example, I have used the same grain bill for a pale but changed the yeast and hops for a Yanky,English etc then mixed them up just to see the differance, not 2 brews but 6 or more brews.
I have done this with stouts,porters and now pales using the same grain bill [and brand if I can]
The differance can be amazing sometimes.
Thoughts on this anyone?
At the swap the other night someone asked me what style of beer the mix of grains I had weighed up were for? [Ross I think it was] I said I am not sure yet, well I am mashing it now as I type and made up my mind it is going to be a Yanky with Pommie yeast , a different English yeast then last time, same mash temps etc.
