started with a sierra nevada ipa clone and after tweaking, this is what i have.......
10lbs pale malt (2 row)
10 oz cara-pils
10 oz crystal 40
8 oz amber malt
.4 oz nugget (60)
.4 oz simcoe (60)
.6 oz pearle (60)
.9 oz cascade (30)
4 oz cascade after boil for 10 min
.25 oz simcoe (dry)
.5 oz cascade (dry)
mash at 154 for 60 min.
beersmith gives this
OG - 1.059
8 SRM
66.8 IBU
my questions:
- the base recipe is for a 60 min boil and i've been told to always boil AG worts for 90 min, should i adjust the hop additions?
- the base recipe says to sparge at 190 deg and beersmith says 168, which would be better?
- WLP 1, 8 or 51?
this will be our second AG batch and we are brewing it for a competition. (just to get some educated feedback) any and all help is much appreciated!!!
