A request for a double extra confirmation on the dry hops.
Total amount of dry hops is 3.75 oz
1.25 oz for 7-ish days; pull it and another
1.25 oz for 7-ish days; pull it and another
1.25 oz for 7-ish days.
and NOT 3.75 oz each time (which would be a total of 11.25).
Can someone please confirm? The way I read the original post is 3.75 oz each time. But, there was an exchange above stating that the total was 3.75.
Thank you.

How were these kits? what was included if you dont mind sharing.
I went to the Farmhouse website and there is no explanation of what is included. When I clicked "contact us" there is an error as if the email provided doesnt exist.
I also PM'd Steelers77 yesterday with no response.
Im not willing to put faith in someone that just says "this kit includes all of the hops you need" and doesnt even list out what is included, the AA% etc.
Seems a little fishy since some people are talking about how much the hops for this recipe alone cost $30 and this hop pack is offered for $15 and they have an entire "kit" supposedly grain and all for $30 something.
MMJfan said:I am planning on tackling a version of a PTE clone this weekend and I just had a quick question regarding Dude's recipe from the first post on this thread. In the OP, Dude states, "Recipe copied exactly according to Vinnie Cilurzo (Russian River Brewing Company Owner/Brewmaster) handout distributed at 2005 National Homebrew Conference."
I have come across a PTE clone recipe that also seems to come from Vinnie and has a different hop profile. The link to the recipe is found here:
Homebrewing Pliny The Elder
I'm guessing this is a more up to date version of Dude's recipe from 2005 seeing that they list Centennial, CTZ and Simcoe hops just like the recipe in the link above?
However, when I was reading on Russian River's website, they listed Amarillo hops as well. Also, I did come across another recipe where the guy added about a half oz of Amarillo to both of his dry hop additions and his grain bill was almost identical to the recipe I have linked above. I discovered the Amarillo thing after I had ordered my ingredients, but as luck would have it, I just happened to have 2 oz of it sitting in my freezer! So, I'm going to go ahead and give it a try!
I have also read that Vinnie likes to change up the recipe for PTE and I was just wondering if anyone has tried the recipe I linked above? I am going to go ahead and attempt the recipe I linked above and see how it turns out as the guy that listed the other recipe I found referencing using Amarillo said his clone turned out to be about 98% accurate. Being in Ohio, I've never had the real PTE, so I'm hoping this turns out good even though I will have nothing to compare it to...
midfielder5 said:You [dry] hop with 11 oz, which is the standard Pliny home brew clone recipe amount for 5 gallons.
3 dry hop additions for approximately 2 weeks each, of 1.25 ounces EACH of columbus, centennial and simcoe.
1.25 oz per variety. I would mix them all up and the split them into thrids and add one for 7-10 days, take it out, and repeat.
hehehe :cross: Been there, done that.It took some finessing to stuff the hop sock down the mouth of the BetterBottle, hopefully I can get it out again.
Would be interested to hear how they came out for you.
There's more to hops than just IBUs. I would say that if there was a way for Vinnie Cilurzo at Russian River to get the results he wanted with less hops, he'd use less hops.Hey everyone,
I was just looking at the hop bill on the clone recipe from 2005... I was just wondering, since the palate can't sense over 80 or so IBU's, is it really necessary to add almost a pound of hops to a 5.5 gallon brew giving around 270 + IBU's?
