Hey Guys (and Gals)
I'm looking for a little feed back on an IPA recipe I'm putting together. I'm mostly wondering if its simply too many hops for the grain bill (and I'm born and raised in Oregon, so hops are my friend).
7# Light LME
1# Briess light DME
.5# Cara-Pils
.5# Crystal 10L
Add 1 tsp of Gypsum then Steep grains at 155 for 30 minutes.
Once it comes to a boil add all of the extract (I know I should probably switch to late addition, that's a debate for a different thread though).
Hop Schedule:
1 oz Amarillo @ 60 min
1 oz Citra @ 15 min (also add 1 tab Whirlfloc)
1 oz Citra & Amarillo @ 10 min
1 oz Amarillo @ 5 min
1 oz Citra & Amarillo @ F.O.
I'm planning on Dry hopping, but haven't decided on what. I'm leaning towards more Citra and Amarillo, but I'm open to suggestions of other hops that might play nice.
For yeast I plan on using US-05 and fermenting in a closet, so it should be around 68 degrees, but I have limited control.
Thoughts and criticism are appreciated
