Hi all.
I'm thinking of brewing a very simple batch to be able to get more acquainted with specific hop/grain profiles.
So I'm thinking of doing an IPA all grain with just 2-row and just one type of hop. My goal is to get more familiar with a relatively simple recipe to differentiate the ingredients. Style wise, I want something with more aroma/flavor than bitterness.
If you have any suggestions - would love to hear em:
Fermentables:
9 or 10 pds of 2 row
Should I add 1/2 pd of carapils?
Hops:
I have about 5-10 types of hops where I have 4 oz. So I was thinking of more less continuous hop drop or drop 1 oz at 60min and then 1 oz at 15, 1 oz at 5 min and 1 oz dry hop.
Suggestions on the hops?
I have a few high alpha so i could do 1oz high alpha (ie nuggett or something.)
Yeasts:
I have a bunch of yeasts going but I don't know if they fit the bill.
I have some wb06, s33, t58 and I may have some notty I can revive.
Wish I had some chico or ringwood (I may be able to get some..) any suggestions on the yeasts I have on deck?
