Hello - I am a huge fan of most of the Stone beers. I would like to make a clone of the standard IPA but need some assistance with my recipe.
Let me know what you think. I want to use the Columbus hop's somewhere in this as I believe this is what gives the Stone IPA that distinct taste.
Should I dry-hop with the Columbus?
1Lb. Crystal Malt 20L
7.25Lb. Pale LME
1Lb. Pale DME
0.5Lb. Malto-Dextrin (suggest anything different here?)
1 oz Chinook @60 minutes
2 oz Centennial @15 minutes (added with 1 tsp Irish Moss)
1 oz Cascade @1 minute
Columbus pellets Dry Hop?
Wyeast 1056 American Ale
Dry hopped: 1/2 oz Columbus hops - 1 Week in secondary?
Lastly - I don't know how to determine what my gravity should be on this recipe - how do I determine this? Looking for 6.9ABV when done.
Thanks in advance.
