I just threw this recipe together based on what I have for a pale ale and am looking for advice in general but specifically with regards to how much bittering and flavor/aroma I'll get with the whirlpool addition. I usually add hops at the beginning, 10, 5, and then some for a whirlpool/hop stand, but am going to just do a bittering addition and whirlpool on this one.
12 gallons (80% efficiency)
OG 1.052
IBU's 39.7
SRM 6.4
15.5lbs US 2 row (72.1%)
5lbs Weyermann Munich I (23.3%)
.5lb crystal 10 (2.3%)
.5lb crystal 60 (2.3%)
75 minute boil
1oz Magnum @ 14%AA 75 minutes
3oz Cascade @ 5.5%AA whirlpool 45 minutes
1oz CTZ @ 14%AA whirlpool 45 minutes
Yeast cultured from Odell
I'm brewing this Sunday so I'll be tweaking it a bit before then. I have some other crystal malts on hand and I have a good amount of cascade and CTZ on hand but not really much else that I think would work in this (Hallertau and Crystal).
Is it enough hops for the whirlpool? Anything else you'd change?
Thanks!
