I am out of ideas what should I try to brew. I decided on some kind of ale with friends (they want to learn how to brew) but don’t know what exactly should I try. Do you have some interesting recipies or some interesting ingredients what should I try. Thanks

    agreed with the DIY dog. my best stout comes from just modifying one of their recipes (I forget which one, can look it up later when I get home)

    I was actually planning on doing a sort of funky brew, will post it once I get it going. my plan so far is to make some malt cakes and put them on a charcoal grill. I’d only be using pale malt for this, so hoping to get some smoky and caramel flavours. maybe like about 15-20% of the pale malt gets treated in this way and then broken up and mashed together with the rest of the grain bill

    not fully set on the logistics just yet

    I’ve also bought some Tonka beans from the shop the other day and I’d like to try them in a (different beer than the grilled one) non stout and see where it leads, maybe with some cardamom
