I rencently brewed an IPA using my homegrown chinook hops. This was my first time using homegorwn hops. The recipe was as follow:
5.5 Gallons
10lbs 2-Row
1lb - flaked wheat
6oz - C40
.75oz CTZ @60
8oz(Wet) homegrown Chinook at 5min
8oz(Wet) homegrown Chinook at 0min

Just tapped into my clone attempt. I ended up over shooting my gravity and over attenuating to about 7.5%abv.
Appearance: pretty close. Clone is a bit darker and has some haze. Clone on the left.
Aroma: original has a big pineapple aroma, clone has similar aroma but is masked by a peachy...
Brewed this up this weekend. Ended up over shooting my gravity a bit to 1.067. I followed the recipe on the 1st page but used US-05 since I did not have my act together enough to make a starter. I will do a side by side once done post the results.

I asked around here and the only advise I got on Knee Deeps house yeast was it is more likely White labs San Diego Super Strain than Chico Strain. Cleaner more aggressive yeast...
Have you tried brewing this. I live 20 min from the brewery and it would be nice to be able to clone this and. Not pay the $7/22. How did it turn out. Recipie looks like it would get you close
Loved this beer last year and could not wait for it to come out this year. I had my fist bottle of the 2014 batch this weekend and I am convinced that SNB changed the recipe. Seems to have a much roastier and spicier malt flavor. I get a touch of rye on this years batch that is not listed on...
I am looking at brewing to tomorrow. I have a few questions for the partial mash/extract version of this. I plan on doing a full boil which should allow me to remove the 60 min hop addition.
My concerns/thoughts are with the FWH and the boil time.
FWH:
If I do a FWH with this method I would...
Not being able to control the fermentables of the extract is part of the reason I want to try this. My last few extract brews have started at 1.068 and finished at 1.020-1.018. I would like to have something that finishes drier than the last few batches have. So i figure using less extract and...
I am thinking about brewing something based on the recipe basically trying to create a 5.5%ish ABV with a similar hop flavor and characteristic to Ruination. I was thinking the following
5 Gal
6lbs Golden Light dme
1lb Crystal 15L
0.5oz Cascade @ 60min (have it laying around)
0.5oz...
I am thinking about making a ruination clone for my next batch and have been looking up recipes. All of the extract recipes I have found seem to be light on the extract(dry or liquid) I have plugged a bunch (including BYO, and several from this post)of them into Beercalculus and can never get...
