Ingredients:
7.50 lb English 2-row malt
0.75 lb Crystal malt
3.00 oz Fuggles hops (boil)
0.75 oz Hallertauer hops (finish)
Ale yeast Directions:
You'll get good yield and lots of flavor from English malt and a
1-stage 150 degree mash. In the boil, I added the finishing hops in
increments: 1/4 ounce in last 30 minutes, 1/4 ounce in last 15
minutes, and 1/4 ounce at the end (steep 15 minutes) don't have to be
Fuggles; almost any boiling hops will do, I usually mix Northern
Brewer with Fuggles or Goldings (just make sure you get .12-.15
alpha). Conversion will pro- bably only take 60 minutes rather than
90. Depending on when you stop the mash your gravity may vary as high
as 1.050. That's a lot of body! This is a simple all-grain recipe for
a good pale ale that lets the beginner concentrate on the mashing
process. Hallertauer may not be traditional for ales, but neither is
a modern piano for sonatas. But I think Beethoven himself would have
used one if he had one. Original Gravity: up to
1.050 Final Gravity: up to 1.020
