Yeah, that's right. I'm re-brewing a double IPA that I did last summer, but I'm changing up a few things based on my tasting notes (namely, trying out warrior hops for the first time, and shifting some of the beer's bitterness away from the beginning of the boil toward the end of the boil). Here we go:
10.5 gallons final volume
OG: 1.075
90% 2 row
5% crystal 40
5% carapils
0.75 lb cane sugar, added at flameout
hops:
5 oz warrior pellets (17.2%) 90 min
1 oz warrior 60 min
1 oz warrior 20 min
1 oz centennial pellets (9.2%) 20 min
1 oz CTZ pellets (13%) 20 min
5 oz centennial at 0
2 oz warrior at 0
2 oz CTZ at 0
dry hops:
2 oz of each for 14 days
0.5 oz each for 5 days
yeast:
three rehydrated packs of US05
Total cost of this batch was pretty reasonable, around 50 bucks for 10 gallons... I snagged some good prices on hops by the pound last month for this very purpose. Any thoughts on this one friends, bearing in mind I've never used warrior before?
ps Just to rub it in: This beer is brewed by request for SWMBO.
