Lately I have been struggling with trying to nail down a NEIPA recipe. I’m looking for some feedback on this recipe. I took the BYO recipe for Trillium’s sleeper street and tweaked it a bit. I largely made two changes, first to water. I am experimenting with different profiles and slowly tweaking them
I am using tap water (tested by Ward Labs)
The profile is :
Ca- 98
Mg- 13.2
Na- 17
So4- 98.7
Cl- 145.5
The other change I made was to the hopping schedule, I found old tweets (circa 2014) from Trillium giving recommendations for replicating the recipe.
Recipe:
11 lbs
Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM)
1 lbs 8.0 oz
Wheat Malt, Pale (Weyermann) (2.0 SRM)
12.0 oz
Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM)
4.0 oz
Caramel/Crystal Malt - 20L (20.0 SRM)
Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min
44.0 IBUs
-
2.50 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Steep/Whirlpool 30.0 min, 180.0 F
19.7 IBUs
-
0.50 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Steep/Whirlpool 30.0 min, 160.0 F
1.9 IBUs
Dry Hop
5.00 oz Citra [12.00 %] - Dry Hop 4.0 Days
1.00 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Dry Hop 4.0 Days
I will be fermenting a little warm at 75F (per Omega recommendation). Ph 5.4
Are there any red flags here? When I’m brewing things seem to go well, hitting numbers etc. but the finished product hasn’t been what I imagined. Help!
