I have just chucked the first lot of hops into my brews, I mashed a batch of grain and have split it four ways to make 4 one gallon/4.5 litre brews. I'm going to adapt one later by steeping choc and dark crystal malts, probably!
Batch Size (L): 18.0
Total Grain (kg): 3.350
Original Gravity (OG): 1.044
Final Gravity (FG): 1.011
Alcohol by Volume (ABV): 4.32 %
Colour (SRM): 10.5 (EBC): 20.7
Brewhouse Efficiency (%): 75
Grain Bill
----------------
3.000 kg Munich Lager Malt (89.55%)
0.150 kg Crystal 40 (4.48%)
0.150 kg Wheat Malt (4.48%)
0.050 kg Carafa III malt (1.49%)
I decided to add the Carafa at the last minute, just to darken the beer.
I'm hopping them differently:
1. 7g Amarillo @45 and 14g Amarillo @ 5 = 45 IBUs
2. 5g Citra @ 45 and 14g Citra at Flame out = 36 IBUs
3. 7g First Gold @ 45 and 7g each of First Gold, EKG and Northdown @ 5 = 46 IBUs.
4. 7g Cluster @ 45 and 14g Cluster @ 5 = 45 IBUs (will add Choc and Dark Crystal to this later to make a brown ale I think)
Work out what yeasts to use later!
