[bonjour]

I just added my Amarillo Pale Ale to the wiki,  enjoy

I'm going to brew this tomorrow substituting the Nottingham with S-04 since I don't have the Nottingham on hand.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

Awesome

Hey, thanks for posting that. Looks like a good recipe. I have a pound of Amarillo in the freezer and will target some of them for your recipe. I think I have those grains on hand as well.

I remember doing the back to backs with Fred on this one. I found a new hop back then that I really love. This is a great brew, and don't be afraid of the late brewing method, you won't be disapointed.

Question. How would you recommend converting  this recipe to a partial boil/extract? 

[bonjour]

Drop the Pale malt by 6 pounds (down to 1 pound) and add 3 pounds of light DME.  This will drop the OG a bit but that will not hurt this beer.  This leaves 4 pounds for a partial mash.

If that is still too much grain drop the last pound of pale malt and add dme to a total between 3.5 and 4 pounds.

Looks good Fred, really can't go wrong with Amarillo IMHO.

Looks tasty Fred, have you dry hopped this?

Question. How would you recommend converting  this recipe to a partial boil/extract?

This isn't an easy recipe to convert, so if you're willing to do a partial mash then follow Fred's advice. For a full extract recipe, replace the MO with 4 lb of pilsner DME, or 5 lb of pilsner LME. Replace the Munich with 2 lb of Munich LME, and eliminate the flaked barley. Steep the rest of the aromatic and crystal malts. For a partial boil, I'd use the Munich at the beginning and add the pilsner late.

It's interesting to me the amount of IBUs (49IBU, 1.046SG), and the level of bitterness being lower than SNPA, according to Fred.  I've always wondered about the IBUs contributed at the 15min, 10min, 5min marks...and whether they should even be taken into account when trying to calculate actual bitterness.

agreed - on the contrary, I just did an all centennial hopburst/late hopped beer and is intensely bitter and harsh, yet its clocked at '60 ibus'.

Thanks for adding this.  I go to the Wiki for the first draft of most of my beers so I'll definitely be making this (once I get more Amarillo).
