As you can see they are all similar, the first one is a SMSH (single mash single hop) and the other two are just there to use up a few bits of mine. The only other thing I was going to play around with is the mash temp. Should I produce a thin, medium or fuller bodied beer? I normally go for medium (65c) but Im up for a change. Looking at a web page it seems that:-

a)60c mash makes a highly fermentable thin beer
b)65c mash makes a medium body beer with bother fermentable and non fermentable sugars
c)70c mash makes a fuller bodied beer with more unfermentable sugars

Funny thing is Beersmith wont change the abv when changing the temp which I thought it would..... anyway I digress!

Whaddya reckon then guys? Pick a beer and pick a mash schedule!
