Mosaic/cashmere blonde

[Saunassa]

Just brewed a modified version of biermunchers centennial blonde. Doubled the Vienna to one pound and added an extra pound of pale malt.
Cashmere is interesting as it is bitter but seemed soft and not a super sharp edge to it when tasting raw wort.
Now to wait two weeks.

What sort of hop schedule did you use? I recently brewed the centennial blonde and most of my friends love it because they are all BMC drinkers. I was thinking that it is just dying for a little more hops.

60 minute boil
.25 oz mosaic @30
.5 oz mosaic @10
.5 oz cashmere @10
.25 oz mosaic @1
.5 oz cashmere @1
1.0 oz cashmere hop stand at 160f for 15

The .25 of Mosaic at 1 was because I did not want it too bitter and did not want to throw it away. I too am trying it on bmc drinkers

Thanks! This sounds like a good opportunity to get to know Cashmere. I did a Mosaic/Maris Otter SMaSH recently and really enjoyed it so I know I enjoy Mosaic.

Just got done bottling. Will be hard waiting for two weeks to see what carbonation will do. Finished @ 1.006 Had a little left in the bottling bucket so with the priming sugar mixed in it tasted like peach mango juice you get in the store with a smooth bitter, no sharp bite. Hopefully the carbonation adds a touch of bite.

Two weeks in the bottle, starting to keep a head. Tasty as heck. Will brew again just a slight more bittering charge.

I did a cashmere pale ale a few batches back and loved the flavor of that hop. Citrusy but was definitely getting a lemon/lime thing. Mine was way underbittered and had kind of a flat taste because of that but I'll fix that next time. Definitely coming back to that recipe soon.
