This is my first attempt at an IPA on my own. I'm curious about how long to leave it in the fermenter (I'm only using a primary) before bottling.
Recipe is as follows:
1lb Crystal 60 Malt (grain)
6lbs Amber DME
1056 American Ale Yeast
Centennial Hops:
1oz at 60
1oz at 45
1oz at 15
1oz at 1
0.5oz dry-hopped at 5-days
Brewed it on 9/28. I just dry hopped it on 10/2. Some folks say 2 weeks, some say 3 weeks.
Also, I'm using a light DME as the bottling sugar. I'm worried it won't be enough.
Thoughts?
