Finallizing a IIPA recipe. I like the steeping hops idea and want to try it. Hows this recipe look? Whats a typical fermentation schedule for a IIPA. I was thinking 3 in primary. Cold crash or use gelatin. Transfer and dry hop for 5 days before bottling. Thoughts?
Someone mentioned to me that my FG will be lower than what my beer tools pro program says. It doesn't seem to account for lower gravity using honey, corn sugar ect.
