Okay, so I've been reading quite a bit about late hop additions, and I think I might want to try this technique out with my next batch. I'm making a Belgian IPA - basically trying to get some similar to Stone's Cali-Belique. I was planning on boiling 14 aau of Warrior for the standard 60 minutes, then I was going to add 1 oz. of Centennial at the 50-minute mark. Finally, I was going to dry hop with .5 oz of Cascade and .5 oz of Centennial. If I wanted to try late additions, what do you think the hop schedule is that I should use? Also, can I use what I already have or would I need more, less, or different hops? For example, is Warrior okay for a shorter boil? I would like my brew to have a bitterness of around IBUs. I'm also trying late extract addition on this one as well.
