Hi fellas,
Am looking to make the below recipe from byo:
Am after some advice on what to do with the (0.45 kg) 2-row pale malt......
Can I steep this? What malt should I use?
Im an extract brewer who has at this stage only steeped crystal, carapils, Carabohemian etc.
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone
(5 gallons/19 L, extract with grains)
OG = 1.052 FG = 1.011
IBU = 37 SRM = 11 ABV = 5.3%
Ingredients
1.8 lbs. (0.82 kg) Briess Light dried malt extract
4.0 lbs. (1.8 kg) Briess Light liquid malt extract (late addition)
1.0 lb. (0.45 kg) 2-row pale malt
1.0 lb. (0.45 kg) crystal malt (40 °L)
2.5 AAU Magnum hops (60 mins) (0.18 oz./5.1 g of 12% alpha acids)
4.8 AAU Perle hops (60 mins) (0.7 oz./19 g of 7% alpha acids)
5 AAU Cascade hops (15 mins) (1.0 oz./28 g of 5% alpha acids)
0.75 oz. (21 g) Cascade hops (0 mins)
0.75 oz. (21 g) whole Cascade hops (dry hop)
1 tsp Irish moss
Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) or White Labs WLP001 (California Ale) yeast (1.5 qt./1.5 L yeast starter)
7/8 cup corn sugar (for priming)
Step by Step
In a large soup pot, heat 3.0 quarts (2.8 L) of water to 161 °F (72 °C). Add crushed grains to grain bag. Submerge bag and let grains steep around 150 °F (66 °C) for 45 minutes. While grains steep, begin heating 2.4 gallons (9.1 L) of water in your brewpot. When steep is over, remove 0.83 qts. (0.78 L) of water from brewpot and add to the "grain tea" in steeping pot. Place colander over brewpot and place steeping bag in it. Pour grain tea (with water added) through grain bag. This will strain out any solid bits of grain and rinse some sugar from the grains. Heat liquid in brewpot to a boil, then stir in dried malt extract, add first charge of hops and begin the 60 minutes boil. With 15 minutes left in boil, add hops and Irish moss, then turn off heat and stir in liquid malt extract. Stir well to dissolve extract, then resume heating. (Keep the boil clock running while you stir.) At the end of the boil, add last charge of hops, cool wort and transfer to fermenter. Add water to make 5 gallons (19 L). Aerate wort and pitch yeast. Ferment at 68 °F (20 °C). Rack to secondary when fermentation is complete and add dry hops. Bottle when beer falls clear.
