Hey I've been home brewing for about 6 months with 5 batches under my belt. I've done a lot of reading on this forum and finally joined. The wife gave me the go ahead to make an IIPA (my favorite). This is also the first recipe that I've devised myself and just would like any opinions. I like more of a dry finish on my IPA just FYI. Thoughts? To many Specialty Grains, hops timings, to many hops, bigger dry hop?
