Single Mash Split in Two SMaSH Pale Ale (MO & Amarillio/Citra)

[ParanoidAndroid]

Looking at doing a simple SMaSH Pale Ale with a Marris Otter base. Once the mash is completed, Ill separate the wort into two different batches. Once will use Citra Hops and the other will use Amarillo. I'm looking for some feedback on the recipes to make sure Im in the ballpark.

I'm using the same hop schedule and trying to stay around the same IBUs. Some dry hops will go in there too, but I didn't add those.

Any suggestions? Look good?

Everything looks good to me aside from having a FWH addition and a 60 min addition. You do not need both I would use just the FWH addition and bulk it to get your IBUs right then add more to the flame out addition if you have extra. The whole thing with FWH is that its done in place of the 60 minute addition and it helps give some character of the hop not just boil it all away so its kinda silly to do both.

Ive seen several do both, or one or the other. Ive seen only FWH and flamouts. Seems to be several ways to go about it.....just like everything else in brewing.

Something I didn't think about.....

If I split my batch, then instead of a 1.0 gallon/hour boil off rate, Ill have to account for two pots doing that (or 2 gallons of boiloff). ****, that changes stuff up a good bit.
