I have modified it to this5 lbs Pilsner Malt or American 2-row Pale Malt3 lbs Munich Light1 lb Flaked Corn6 oz Belgian Caramunich2 oz Debittered Black Malt (mash temp 150-151°)
Ken and I have had a few PM's on it. My intent is to acheive a very dark color without getting too heavy on a "roast" type flavor. Ken did suggest using Sinamar to acheive the darkness and avoid that. (I do note that I intend to use Debittered Black Malt instead of Patent, but BeerSmith did not have that as an option.) What are the thoughts and comments on acheiving dark colors in lagers while minimizing the roast flavor?6.00 lb Pilsner (2 Row) Ger (2.0 SRM) Grain 60.00 % 2.00 lb Munich Malt - 10L (10.0 SRM) Grain 20.00 % 1.00 lb Corn, Flaked (1.3 SRM) Grain 10.00 % 0.50 lb Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) Grain 5.00 % 0.50 lb Caramunich Malt (56.0 SRM) Grain 5.00 %
