Hey Danny. I dont live in an apartment. But SWMBO just had to have the damned glass top stove top. Now I cant do large all grain on my stove top anylonger. Since our gas range died. So for 4-5 Months out of the year Im doing smaller batches on the stove top because the glass top cant boil more than 4 gallons in a reasonable time or it shuts off. Do you have some good recipes for smaller batches?
Yeah! Check out my tasting notes page which includes recipes. Batch sizes vary between 2-5 gallons, but you easily scale them to fit your system. Cheers!
