It will have to be next time I guess.... The dextrine was mixed with the other grains. It's in the works right now, just about to hit the fermenter, so I guess I will just ave to see how it turns out. It smells good at least!

Matthew,

Thanks for the advice! I'll go ahead and up the boil on the hops. The dextrine was suggested by my LHBS. I had been looking at adding brown sugar or molassas and he suggested the dextrine instead. The recipe is something I did work up my self by comparing a few different recipes and seeing what sounded good.

Thanks again!

Getting ready to brew my first all grain... I've decided to try a brown, should be interesting since I have never brewed this before. Here is the recipe I am working from...

7 lbs American 2 row
1 lbs Crystal 60l
1 lbs dextrine
0.5 lbs Chocolate

1 oz East Kent Goldings 45 min
1 oz East Kent Goldings 15 min

Wyeast 1028 London Ale


I also have a great stout that is about gone. I am currently fermenting what will be a milk stout and my own experimental IPAish ale. Both these are extract w/specialty grain.

After my Brown I'm going to work over my stout into an all grain, and then a nice tasty wheat.

I'm glad to have found this place!
