So I'm trying to make some super hoppy rocket fuel. Tell me what you think about the recipe and such. I'm trying to push the 13% mark and really extract some alpha acids by adding my extract late. Also, will a 2L stir-plate starter of WLP001 get me to 13%? I'm trying to avoid using their Super High Gravity yeast because I've heard about it giving-off some bad flavors. All help and suggestions are appreciated.
