Easy-ish recipe for first partial mash

[jaywaycon]

I've so far only brewed 100% extract and fancy having a go at a partial mash. Does anyone have any easy recipes for a beginner? Maybe an IPA?

SMaSH are the go to beginner beers, just pick a hop you like and use it and pure 2 row.

You could try this one. It's pretty simple. https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/523784/cascade-smash

I'd go extract/steep. About a 1.055 wort (no starter required), a pound of Crystal 60 (others may recommend a different steeping grain), hop it to about 40 IBUs of Cascade, split evenly between 60, 30 and 0 minutes (meaning you'll halve the IBUs and put them at 60 and 30 mins). Ferment it with a clean yeast and you have yourself a fine pale ale.

(sometimes known as a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone)

That's also not a bad idea. My first non extract only batch was LME and steeping grains.

US-05 yeast would be a good choice,and there isno need to oxygenate the wort if the OG is 1060, or less.

5kg of malt for a partial mash? Also that looks like the only fermentable. Am I confused about what a partial mash is? I imagined some mashing that was suplimented with some extract or other fermentable.

How much grain can you mash, in a grainbag or two or whatever you plan on using to hold the mash?

That was an all grain batch, a partial mash will have probably 500g or so of specialty grains.

This is the first and only partial mash kit I ever did. http://hopdawgs.ca/Kits/partial-mash-kits?product_id=530
