Redhead Ale w/grains
Ingredients:
I think this time I'm going to start with the basic RedHead recipe and try adding some fresh malt to give it better color and refine the flavor a bit more.
- 1 can (3.3 lbs) light liquid malt extract
- 1 can (3.3 lbs) amber liquid malt extract
- 1/2 lbs Cara Red malt
- 2 oz black patent malt
- 1 tube White Labs Dry English Ale yeast
- 1 oz fuggle hops pellets
- 1 oz soverign hops pellets
- 1 tsp irish moss
- 5 oz. priming sugar
Brought ~1 gallon of water to 160F, removed from heat, added grains and soaked for 45 minutes. Brought ~2 gallons of water to a boil, removed from heat, added LME and wort from the soaked grains. Returned to heat, brought to 180F, added soverign hops and started a 1 hour timer. At 30 minutes, added the irish moss. At 15 minutes remaining added the fuggle hops pellets.
