Gday,
I'm thinking of making a marzen style beer, but towards the higher end of the EBC scale (top end is 36EBC I think). I was planning to use 70% Vienna malt at 10EBC, 28% Munich at 25EBC, and was after that nice intense red hue. I was thinking that Roast malted barley at say 2% would be the best ingredient to get this red colour. I've not made many red ales/lagers so am interested to see what people use and in what proportions.
