This is my first recipe that i made from scratch and need some help. I'm planing on making a Black IPA with a good body and light malt and caramel notes in it. I made this recipe tonight and going to tweak it a little bit and brew hopefully in the next few weeks. Any help, concerns, question what i want with this brew please ask and help me make this the best i can make it and not just another IPA out there
Batch size: 5.5 Gal
OG: 1.061

Yeast: Safale US-05/ WL Cali ale V (hadnt made up my mind yet)
ABV: 5.9
IBU: 69.1
SRM: 26.6
Cal: 201/pint
Malt Bill
10 lbs of 2-row/maris otter
2 lbs Cara-pils/ dextrin
12 oz Special B
6 oz Crystal 60L
6 oz Chocolate Malt
2 oz Carafe III
Hop Schedule:
1 oz Magnum 13.5% 60 min
.5 oz Zythos 10.4% 30 min
1 oz Zythos 10.4% 10 min
1 oz Zythos 10.4% 5 min
1.5 oz Zythos 10.4% 0 min
3oz Citra leaf Dry hopping (either 1.5 oz per week for 2 weeks or 3oz at once)???
