What are you brewing?
Since this is the most popular thread on the RealBeer.co.nz forum I thought I would start it here just to see what happens

I'd get some more crystal malt in there. Will be malty but maybe a touch on the malty-dry side opposed to the malty-caramel-sweet side.
I love me a big caramelly amber ale.

Cheers for that, unfortunately I first posted once my mash was on. Seemed to go alright, definetely on the dark side of red. Ended up with a starting gravity of 1.0666 instead of the 1.0560 I was aiming for, too strong on the boil maybe.

Nice. How did your last Pale Ale turn out? Gonna brew one soon and want some ideas

Still on the dry hop bro. Will be in the keg next week sometime.
What part of the recipe are you trying to sort out?

a nice grain bill with a bit of residual sweetness.
94% NZ pale (or UK pale ale malt if you want a bit more maltiness)
6% Crystal malt of your choice. Or a blend of a few if that's your buzz.
Mash at 67C (or whatever will get you to an FG of about 1012).
SO5/WLP001/1056 at 18 - 20C
About 80g of hops after your bittering addition.
About 1.050 - 1.054 OG and about 40 - 45 IBU.
That's the sorta baseline APA I'm playing with at the moment.

Trying my first US Brown Ale tomorrow, but it's a bit of a hybrid as I've got a 1968 yeastcake I want to use.
How does this look?

Final Gravity: 1.018 SG
45 IBUs
Mash at 68C
4.500 kg of Gladfield Ale Malt
0.500 kg of German CaraPils
0.370 kg of German CaraAroma
0.239 kg of UK Medium Crystal
0.144 kg of UK Amber Malt
0.100 kg of German Melanoidin Malt
0.095 kg of UK Chocolate Malt
10 g of US Columbus(Tomahawk) (60 Min From End)
5 g of US Simcoe (60 Min From End)
15 g of NZ Cascade (15 Min From End)

Hopefully it won't be too chewy. The IPA I just did with 1968 attenuated down to 82%, so am looking for a lower FG than predicted.
