I have 2 grams of GOP. Should that work or do you have a recommendation?
I really appreciate your help on this.
That's not even 1/10th of an ounce so I think you're safe there.

How would this taste if I substituted US 2-row for the Pilsner? I have all the other ingredients and would like to make it this Friday.
Is it recommended to crush or grind the spices (Grains of Paradise, Coriander, Orange Peel) or boil them whole?
Wow...BM did this as part of the 10der? Or was it just a part of the swap?
I just bottled this yesterday. Looking forward to drinking it once its fully carbonated.
I did a PM version of this using DME and it is great...almost all gone. I am now going to do an AG...but why the 90 min boil? I have only used 60 min boils in the past...
Yeah, I've taken to using fresh. More of a PITA to zest by hand, but I can get more flavor out of them fresh.Finally brewing this today! It is mid boil right now. Grinding up the coriander and grains of paradise (thanks for the tip Bird) sure smelled amazing. I think next time I want to use fresh orange rind. Have you been doing that BierMuncher?

How much fresh grated orange peel do you use in this recipe? When I tasted my sweet wort prior to ferment, I couldn't really taste any orange or the spices, but it smelled nice. I used dried bitter orange from brewcraft. My brew buddy and I are both really excited about this recipe.
Would you just cut the grains in half for a 5Gal batch? or would you work up new proportions?
How much fresh orange zest did you end up using in these BM?
and how would you handle the spices if I'm doing a 5Gal batch. cut them in half?
Anyone got a vote on GOP or peppercorn as their favorite for this?
...OG is 1.030. Any ideas on why?? ...
So, BM. Did this officially replace centennial blonde as the house ale?
I ask because the SWMBO actually likes this beer and i've become very fond of it, as well. That and i made the mistake of giving the neighbor the garage code, so i have a feeling it might disappear pretty quick around here this summer. Oh, and i've been asked to bring some brew to a 4th of july party and this seems to be the winner.
I'm just trying to decide if i should go ahead and give this a chance, or if i should use up the .5 oz of cascade and centennial that i already have from the first time i brewed your centennial blonde...
choices, choices.
