If it looked like this, it's OK.

Would we just halve the recipe if we were only doing 5 gal batches?

thanks for all your contributions!

Yep..........

I brewed a 5gal batch of this yesterday. It smells wonderful and the airlock was rocking at about 8hours after pitching! Talk about a fast starter!!

Only thing that I adjusted was I had to sub Centennial for Amarillo, but that shouldn't be too big of a deal. I'm really looking forward to trying this in a few weeks! Looks like another great winner from EdWort. Thanks for the recipe man!

Also, I did not add the Whirlfloc due to LHBS being out, but I did add some gypsum. This thing is VERY cloudy! I hope it drops out soon, I'd love a very clear beer, but I can live without it.

Brewed this last weekend and took a hydro sample today. Has a good taste very citrus taste to it. Looking forward to this in a few weeks after being dry hopped. I did end up using the flaked barley since I got a chance to stop by the brew shop.

I brewed a batch of this exactly one week ago. I hit 1.054 SG, but now it is only at 1.026 and the fermentation has completely stopped. It has been at this Gravity for about 3 days. Should I repitch some yeast? I think it may have been too warm during the initial fermentation, probably around 76deg. Any ideas?

I'm sure this is a great IPA Ed. OK with all the people that brewed this, not one has posted a result of the final product besides Ed.
Come on folks, let's hear your outcome and opinion.

Hey SmokingJohn,

I had a similar issue with another IPA due to warm new england temps. I gave the carboy a few good swirls to stir my little yeastie friends and they got back to work.my sg went from 1.022 to 1.014 in a week.

Not sure if you added anything to it since you posted but the swirl got them going good for me.

I chose this as my first IPA and it is a 12 gallon rolling boil right now. Sure is a lot of hops, but it smells fantastic! Thank you for posting the recipe!

Maybe I missed something, but how did it get its name?

2 Questions:

1) Is 2 row Pale Ale malt the same as Pale Ale or 2-row base malt?
2) If I didn't want to deal with the hassle of toasting my own malt what would be a good substitute for the toasted pale ale malt?

thanks
