I am working on a Rogue Double Dead Guy clone. Everything (to this novice) looks good but the color. Rogue lists the D.D.G.A at 25 Lovibond; this recipe however is 9.5 SRM.
2-row is typically 2 SRM and Crystal 15 is 15 SRM, and that leaves the Munich at 9 SRM.
Not sure where to get coloring right unless using Weyermann Caramunich II or III to bring the SRM up.
With that being said, would the shift from 3.3 .lbs Munich to 3.3 .lbs CaraMunich impact the flavor signifigantly or impart other desirable / undesirable elements?
Regarding hops. Per Rogue, the IBU is 60; however, I don't know how this is measured, Rager or Tinseth.
The same recipe with 3.6 oz of hops calculated in Rager requires 4.5 oz calculated in Tinseth. That 4.5 oz in Tinseth changed back to Rager results in 85.5 IBU.
I am confused as to which calculation I should use. The bottom line is that I need 60 IBU.
Please critique the recipe and offer suggestions and amendments.
