The valencias should do well.

Do you know if crystallized ginger is the same as dried?

[huskerbrew]

I don't think crystallized ginger will be the same, but don't know for sure. Never made the recipe. Don't know, but it might be the powdered stuff used in cooking. Someone else may have some advice on that. Sorry I can't help.

there is plain dried ginger but they usually mean dried candied ginger so essentially yeah.....

OK Husker,

I don't want to be greedy, but could you please post the extract versions? Personally, I'm most interested in the Abbey Ale, but I'm sure I and others will try the Wit and Hennepin also.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers

Unless you can at least do a mini mash that's going to be tough to do because almost half the grain bill is specialty grains. If you can mini mash you can use 3.2 lbs of dried Pilsner malt extract instead of the 5.6 lbs Pilsner grain. The aromatic malt should have enough distatic power to convert all the other starchs.
