Hi all!
Brand new here, and new to brewing. Just finished the beer from my 3rd ever batch (I mean polished off the last bottle, not finished brewing lol) and I'd like to try something new. Started with two Pilsners then a hoppy Pilsner. The 2nd and 3rd batches were as good as I could have imagined, so I'm stoked.
In the recipes list here on the site, right at the top is a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone. I used to love that beer, so I figured I'd try to do one myself.
A few questions though-

A few questions though-
- Is it possible to change to metric? I love freedom units as much as the next guy, but it'd be a lot easier for me. I saw a setting in my profile, but it didn't seem to change anything
- Can I scale up? My Braumeister is a 50L, and the recipe is 29.5L. I could do a basic Excel spreadsheet to help me, but I figured the site might also do it, and that I missed something. Edit: just found this, sorry https://www.brewersfriend.com/forum/threads/how-to-scale-your-recipe-resize.13550/
- There are a lot of questions on the equipment profile that I don't know the answer to. I suppose I can just leave them blank; any suggetions?
