can someone help me with the hop schedule?

specifically the dry hopping..

the Columbus shows to be in the boil (1oz) for 30 minutes..
then it says in the note that it's 1.25 oz each of columus centenial & simcoe..
just to clear things up for me, could someone post a hop schedule for the dry hopping?

I have this for the boil:
1.50 oz. Chinook Whole 13.00% Mash Hoping
2.75 oz. Warrior Pellet 15.40% 90 min.
0.50 oz. Chinook Whole 13.00% 90 min.
1.00 oz. Simcoe Whole 14.00% 45 min.
1.00 oz. Columbus Whole 15.00% 30 min.

and this for the dry hop.. but it doesnt add up..

2.25 oz. Centennial Whole 10.50% 0 min.
1.00 oz. Simcoe Whole 14.00% 0 min.

any help would be very much appreciated!!

All in the kettle:
1.50 oz. Chinook Whole 13.00 40.1 MH
2.75 oz. Warrior Pellet 15.40 146.4 90 min.
0.50 oz. Chinook Whole 13.00 20.4 90 min.
1.00 oz. Simcoe Whole 14.00 37.8 45 min.
1.00 oz. Columbus Whole 15.00 33.9 30 min.
2.25 oz. Centennial Whole 10.50 0.0 0 min.
1.00 oz. Simcoe Whole 14.00 0.0 0 min.

And then dry hop with:
3 dry hop additions for approximately 2 weeks each, of 1.25 ounces EACH of columbus, centennial and simcoe.

So that is 1.25oz of each of these in addition to the 0 min kettle additions.

I am a big fan of mixing 1.25oz of each columbus, centennial and simcoe. Then take 1.25oz of that mix and dry hop for 10-14 days and then take those out and repeat twice.

Almost:
1st round
1.25oz/3 of Simcoe
1.25oz/3 of Columbus
1.25/3 Centennial
For a total of 1.25oz in the beer.
Then after 10-14 days take them out.

2nd and 3rd round:
repeat

You just need a total of 1.25 oz each for the dry hopping.

that's what i needed..

i was confused thinking i needed 1.25oz of EACH of them.. totaling 3.75oz for EACH of the dry hop additions..

so.. reading the thread,... the extra 7 days per dryhop addition is more for aging the beer than anything to do with hops.. as it's noted that 5-7 days is enough for any dryhopping..

I'm brewing this this weekend.. so..

wish me luck.. will have to watch carefully the hop schedule as this will be my most complicated beer yet.. but should do just fine..

I'm using pellets & going to use a nylon bag for dryhopping..

Anyone ever tried replacing Columbus with Zeus for this recipe? I never brewed with Zeus, but I'm having trouble finding whole/plugs of Columbus.

It is rumored (or reported as fact by some) that Zeus is the same as Columbus just grown at different farms. In any case, they are very similar, I would not hesitate to use them.

Columbus Leaf Hop 1 oz - 115

This is where I got mine. They're a little pricey, but it was the only place I found whole Columbus.
