...Not so much developing a recipe, but trying something out . Deputy Fife gave me this idea
I was brewing a batch of all-grain (hound dog brown) ale yesterday, and after all the sparging was done, I was left with 10 pounds of grain soaked with water ....Hmmm ....Normally I'd just toss it on the compost heap for the deer...instead, I tossed 2 gallons of 170F water, and 10 pounds of sugar in with the grain ......stirred it until all the sugar was disolved, and then topped it up with another 3 gallons of cold water...then pitched some ale yeast.
We'll see what we end up with next week.
the grain bill for the beer was
7 pounds pale 2 row
1 pound cara-pils
1 pound crystal malt
1, 1/2 pound dark munich
1/2 pound choc malt
