Thanks a lot! This should get me going, I think.
Some knowledge indeed, from books to Internet resources. But, very basic.
Err, 23L equals 6 US Gallons, right? But I see the recipe is for 23L, which is what I was aiming for.
I can get the malts I need here. The minimum quantity I can get, is 1kg. How long do you think I can keep the remainder of the black malt? I'll look around more to see if I can get smaller quantities.
The Northern Brewer hops (pellets)are 5,7 %AA here. So, if my calculations are correct, I need 57gr?
I think I'll get some boiling bags for the hops, unless you think it affects flavour.
I've ordered the equipment a few weeks ago, it should be here next week. And then brewing time!
Oh, this should be great fun. I'll keep you informed about the process and will get back with additional questions I might have.
One thing that I had on my mind regards the mash method. Is infusion your regular method and does it differ much from step (temperature controled) mashing when it comes to the end result? I've heard that the head will be better in the latter method.
Off to get a beer now! And thanks again.
