Amber Ale help please

Postby Pogierob » Friday Jul 26, 2013 8:06 pm

Hi guys I was hoping some of the pro's out there could help a new guy out with an amber ale.


I did a little search online and found this recipe and tweaked it slightly to get the ABV up around 5

Please assume I know less that you think I should when it comes to brewing and we can start there.

Should I mash for 90 instead of 60?

When I brewed my last amber ale I mashed in then left it for a few hours before I started the boil. Ended up with a nice dry finish. Reviewed here http://www.homebrewandbeer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11029110104904028187&start=40
