I'm a noob home brewer doing extract and grain brewing. I'd like to do a scotch ale next. Could any of you experienced types tell me if this looks like a decent recipe for a scotch ale? It's 5 gall quantities but I will probably scale it down to do 3 galls.
Extract .........
10lbs Light ME (or possibly 50/50 Amber and Light ME?????)
Grains .........
1lb Crystal malt 60-80L
1/4lb choc malt
1/4lb toasted barley
Hops (bittering only) .........................
1.5-2oz Brewer's Gold or Target hops (60min)
Yeast ....... Irish ale yeast
