Any extract version of any recipe is gonna be a little darker. Also did you use the extra light extract or a darker version extract. And most of the pics are probably from all grain recipe.
I used Briess Pilsen light LME

Does this look a little dark compared to what others have come out with after it was done?
Do you add all of your extract at flameout?
I just use all-Centennial, and it's gorgeous.
Sideways pics again? UGH!
Hey guys,
I'm giving this recipe a shot this weekend, only with Maris Otter base malt rather than 2-row. Wondered if anyone had experimented with adding a bit (maybe an 1oz) of lemon rind at for the last few minutes of the boil? If so, what were the results. Just after a subtle lemony flavor and aroma, really.
Thanks!
Never tried the lemon but when I brewed it with MO I noticed the taste improved a lot as it warmed up in the glass. Ice cold and you cant taste that biscuit-like malty goodness.
However once brewed you can of course experiment yourself and see what temperature you like most.
5.5 gal into the fermenter.
Depends on your boil off rate.
Anyone have success with making this a touch more hoppy and still keeping a good balance to the beer?
I don't but I'll be interested in your results. I started drinking my first batch of this last week. It's very good, but I'm not getting much in the way of hops, would like to bump it up a little bit. My thought was to bump up the grain bill slightly to end up around 4.5% ABV, add a half ounce whirlpool addition, and maybe a small dry hop.
Looks yummy, but that's arguably an APA/IPA on the extra-light end of the SRM range. In fact, aside from the hop varietals, it's almost exactly how I made my last IPA batch.I've made this recipe at least a dozen times, as is and with different variations. Planning to make 10g later today using Golden Promise instead of 2row. I'm also planning to change up the hops:
2oz Cascade 30min
2oz Cascade 5 min
4oz Farmhouse Hop Blend Hop Stand
4oz Farmhouse Hop Blend Dry Hop
I'm tempted to use all 8oz of Farmhouse Hop Blend for dry hopping. I'm also flexible on the Cascade additions. Trying to go for flavor and aroma with low bitterness.
Thoughts?
