So I have once again revised my hop schedule. With an est. OG at 1.064, I came up with ~68 ibus 60min .5oz Chinook 29ibu 20min 1oz Citra 22ibu 10min 1oz Centennial 9ibu 5min 1oz Simcoe 8ibu 0min 1oz Centennial Dry hop 1oz Citra 1oz Centennial 1oz Simcoe I think that sounds like it will end...

Picked up another oz of Centennial for the dry hop, and also grabbed a couple oz of Simcoe(couldn't help myself). So ill drop the 60min to .5oz Chinook. Then maybe add a 5min addition of Simcoe?? Should add a little more of that pine flavor I'm looking for, but might get "muddy". Thoughts 60min...

No you do not need a kegerator and yes they are force carbed. They have a tiny release valve on the top w/ a spigot on the bottom. You should definitely consume in a couple days (not that its ever an issue). Cheers!

I like that idea, still trying to get the rhythm down from primary, to secondary, to bottle so I can be steadily brewing. Still kind of new to this, but getting better with every batch. Cheers!

I would use the Chinook for the bitter hops, esp if your going for that founders red rye bite. Never used Apollo but sounds interesting w/ a danky type aroma that could play nice with the Chinook. I'd say go for Chinook bitter, Columbus/Apollo for flavor and aroma, then dry hop all 3! That...

Bells Two Hearted 5L mini keg bottled on 8-01-12... Delicious

5Ls of Hopslam... shouldn't sell it any other way! Stunning accuracy in that picture btw

I wish! Never tasted the infamous Pliny.. Have had the pleasure of 3Fs Zombie Dust from the father in-law, that was a treat. Still waiting for the Pliny, or any of the west coast beers for that matter, other than SN and Anchor

Too small of a town to get much variety, just lucky enough for my local liquor store to sell bells and founders... and 3 floyds, now that I think about it, there is some decent variety lol!

Anyone else seen these 5L mini kegs of Two Hearted. I was on my end-of-the-week trip to my local beer supplier when I stumbled on the TH 5L that was only $22.99! Needless to say I'm in Centennial bliss and dreaming of my next batch (which has a few oz Centennial). Anyway always enjoy great beer...

I have acquired a few different varieties of hops and am going to be brewing a Red IPA. The hop varieties that I have are Citra 15.3%, Organic Centennial 6.3%, Chinook 13%. I have 2oz of each in whole form. I will also be getting some Columbus, Cluster, and Cascades in the next kit I'm buying...

Drinking a Founders Centennial IPA for a little research on centennial before my next batch. I love the floral quality of this beer, delicious!

To clarify I now have 2oz of whole leaf Chinook, 2oz whole leaf Citra, and 2oz whole leaf organic Centennial. Citra alpha 15.6 Chinook alpha 13.0 Centennial alpha 6.2 I'm looking to grab that nice piney resin like flavor from the Chinook, floral citrus from the Cent, and everything Citra has...

I have just bottled my first batch of home brew and am excited to get started on a second. My first batch was an extract recipe for an APA that has been tasting great so far. I have been thinking of using the AHS red IPA kit, but changing the hop schedule a little to make it more my own. I'm...
