So I started brewing the aforementioned extract kit, and goofed. It included an ounce of Goldings and an ounce of Chinook. Chinook is supposed to go in for 60 minutes, then half the Goldings for 15 minutes and the other half for 5.
Guess which packet I chucked in at the boil. Yup. Wrong one. Anyone have any idea if it's worth throwing in half the Chinook in for more than 30 minutes, since Goldings is a less bitter hop than Chinook? I figured I'd throw it out there to see if there were any driveby postings while I'm brewing. If not, the heck with it; I'll just throw the Chinook in at the times the Goldings was supposed to go in and see what happens.
Edit: Decided to throw 1/2 the Chinook in at 30 minutes in an effort to make up for the lack of alpha acids in the Goldings. Saving the other half for 5 minutes prior.
