My latest DIPA has no hops in the boil, 2 oz flame out addition, 4.5 oz aroma steep, and I plan to do a triple dry hop with 9.5 oz of hops to make it an even pound of hops. pH was perfect at 5.41 in the mash and 5.11 in the kettle.
5 Gallons:
8 lbs Golden Promise
8 lbs 2-Row
12 oz Caramalt
4 oz Acidulated Malt
6 tsp Gypsum
Mash at 147* for 60 minutes in 7.5 gallons water (5.41 pH)
Step mash at 156* for 15 minutes with additional 2.5 gallons acidic water (5.11 pH)
12 ml IBU injector @ 90 minutes
1 oz Simcoe, 1/2 oz CTZ, 1/2 oz Apollo @ Flame out
1.5 oz Simcoe, 3/4 oz CTZ, 3/4 oz Comet, 1/2 oz Centennial, 1/2 oz Apollo, 1/4 oz Citra, 1/4 oz El Dorado @ 180* Aroma steep for 45 minutes
1.070 OG, pitched 400 billion cells Conan yeast, fermenting at 63* to start
Dry hop 1: 1 oz Simcoe, 1/2 oz CTZ, 1/2 oz Comet, 1/2 oz Centennial, 1/4 oz Apollo, 1/4 oz Citra, 1/4 oz El Dorado
Plan to add same dry hop 4-5 days later and a final dry hop of 3 oz mainly leaf hops 4-5 days after that.
