I have a recipe that many people loved but I felt the hops needed to be reworked a little.
It's an American Amber 5g batch simple but good recipe
Here is the original recipe and then how I changed it - NOW I want to rework it a tad
The original recipe
3.3 Pale Ale LME
1.2 Pale DME
1lb Munich
2.2 2-row
0.75 Crystal 40L
0.5 Crystal 120L
0.5 Victory
0.60 oz Horizon 60 min
0.25 oz Cascade 10 min
0.25 Centennial 10 min
0.25 oz Cascade 0 min
0.25 Centennial 0 min
The recipe I brewed had
1.0 oz Vanguard 60 min
0.25 oz Cascade 10 min
0.25 oz Riwaka 10 min
0.25 oz Cascade 0 min
0.25 oz Riwaka 0 min
The MAIN problem is the lack of Horizon for bittering. I'm thinking of using Nugget instead and tweaking the aroma and flavor to try to get the Riwaka more into play.
0.5 oz Nugget instead???
0.15 oz Cascade 10 min
0.35 oz Riwaka 10 min
0.15 oz Cascade 0 min
0.35 oz Riwaka 0 min
SO - are there any other replacements for Horizon (besides Magnum which is also hard to find) that would be wonderful to try?.
