Can someone tell me how the Belgian IPA in this weeks beer of the week finishes at 5% abv?
my guess is that the OG is a typo. maybe supposed to be 1.057?
Looks to me like the expected OG is correct. With Ardennes, I would expect that to finish around 1.012 or so, for a beer stronger than 5%.
The malt bill looks closer to a 1.057ish beer.
If I put 9lbs of extract and 1 lb of cane sugar into promash it tells me to expect 1.076.
Just checked the O.G. and it is correct. The ABV should be in the 7.5 range.
From the recipe, if I put 9lb. of liquid extract and 1lb of cane sugar in promash I get 1.060. If its DME its 1.076. According to promash 2012 
I think Denny’s version comes in around the higher OG.
Looks like I used LME…
It’s the evaluation version, but I don’t think that means it’s wrong.
I tried the grains and that also comes in around 1.076.
9lbs of DME by itself will exceed 1.076.
ack! :o My batch size defaults to 6 gals, that’s why my numbers were lower. Carry on.
