Thanks for the replies. Is it usually 4.5 to 5 kg of malt then per 5 gallon brew so you can mix the different grains for example 2.5 kg of one and 2.5 kg of another?
I`m keen on trying to brew from scratch rather than a kit and wondered how much grain i would need for a 5 gallon brew, also which malt is best for an IPA?
