OK..... I am frickin tired of seeing those triple hopped BS commercials from Miller. Who's with me?
One of my preferred HB-Library books, "Home Brewers Gold" written by Chuck has a recipe for Miller Lite.
Wow - to my surprise its not even triple hopped!!!
Here it is, I'm gonna make this but REALLY do the triple hopping with somethin'
I'm gonna keep the IBU at 16 but do a late hop at flame out, then dry hop it too.
So my proposed Tripling is at; 60, 0, Dry
Question - Now what should I use fer hops......?????
