Yeah thats what I'm planning on doing for the next month or two.sponge said:EDIT: It's quite convenient being able to brew ales at ambient which free's up the fermenting fridge for a couple of lagers before the warmer months kick in.

Hi Bradsbrew,bradsbrew said:Grain Bill

6.000 kg Pale Ale Malt (72.29%)
1.000 kg Pilsner (12.05%)
0.500 kg Wheat Malt (6.02%)
0.300 kg Chocolate, Pale (3.61%)
0.300 kg Roasted Barley (3.61%)
0.200 kg Crystal 120 (2.41%)
Hey Pratty, At 12% it should lend to a slight change of malt profile when compared against all ale malt, considering that I also have around 10% of specialty malts in there and the high mash temp I am aiming to get the body from the mash without the cloying texture that you can get from ale malts at that temp. The wheat is in there to assist the pilsner and to also assist head retention. Some do not believe the wheat helps in head retention but it's a habit I got into early in my brewing that I have not seen a need to get rid of.Pratty1 said:Hi Bradsbrew,
This style has taken my interest lately.
Can you tell me, with 6kg already of Pale Ale malt, what will adding 1kg of Pilsner Malt do? Why not just 7kg of Ale malt??
Looks the goods Brad. Have you used Victoria for bittering before?bradsbrew said:Have the HLT heating up for this one.
