I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on the impact of flavouring hops on out competing (masking) toasty/biscuity(cookie) malty flavours in relation to the recipe I laid out below.
I use calculators to make sure that my IBUs from boiled hops are at the lower range for that beer style if I want a malty beer, or higher If I want a hoppier beer, but I am specifically wondering about hops towards the end of the boil with 5-15 minutes to go being added for flavour more than bittering; will the flavours noticeably reduce or compete with the malt flavours of a beer?
Recipe: Briosgaid Pale Ale
3kg (6.6#) Maris Otter Malt
500g (1.1#) British Caramalt
500g (1.1#) Munich Malt
454g (1#) Golden Syrup
Mash at 153F/67.2C for 70 minutes
Volume of beer to be made: 22.73 L
Targets: 1.043OG 1.009 FG 4.5% ABV
Hops = 26IBU (style range 25-40)
30g (~1oz) First Gold (7.5%aa), boil 45min = 19IBU
20g (0.7oz) First Gold, boil 15min = 7IBU
Yeast & Fermentation:
Safale S-04 (dry, rehydrated) starting at 16/17C then slowly rising to room temperature.
