So here is a 10 gal. recipe I am going to try tomorrow. Keep in mind I am not a hophead. 6lbs. gold lme, 6lbs. golden light dme, 2lbs. carahell, 1lb. carapils, 8oz. of pale chocolate, and 2oz of caraAroma. 1oz german hallertau 60 min. 1oz hersbrucker at 30min. 2 packs of safale us-05. Thoughts?
Thats is a LOT of crystal/cara malt, especially with extract that will have unfermentables in it. I’d lose both the carahell and the carapils. Not needed.
What will the caras do to the taste?
They’ll make the beer thick and sweet. Not what an altbier should be.
thank you :cheers:
