Home-brew American Ale

  Home-brew American Ale A rite of passage when one retires it to dabble in hobbies. What better way to take a plunge in the deep end than home brewed Ale, especially when one has delightful friends who grow their own Cascade Hops (talking about you, Bill Z), have the brewing kit and caboodle (shout out to Rajiv S) and are generous with advice (take a bow, Jarl N). Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.  ~ Dave Berry Ingredients for ~5 gallon (19L) American Ale Source: https://www.seriouseats.com/homebrewing-pale-ale-for-beginners-extract   6 gallons of reverse osmosis water.  6 pounds Briess Golden Light GBW dry malt extract (DME) 1/2 pound Viking Malt Caramel 50 (20L), crushed 1/2 pound Carapils Malt, crushed 1 ounce Cascade hops after 30 minutes 3 ounce Cascade hops after flame out for dry hopping 11.5 gram package Safale US-05 dry ale yeast
