So I have a session ale recipe here from a well respected brewer but the grain bill worries me a little.
3lbs Pilsner Malt
2lbs Pale Malt
2lbs Malted Wheat
1.5lbs Melanoidin Malt
Is it just me or does that seem like way too much melanoidin? Its 16% of the grain bill. I've always been under the impression that you want to use it in the 2-8% range. My plan is to cut the melanoidin back to 10oz and add a bit more pils and pale malt to hit the target ABV. Am I on the right track?
