I want to believe that I can achieve 1.010 using dextrose and a 147 degree mash, but Im not whole-heartedly convinced I will get it there. If it finishes under 1.015 I will be ok with it, but I desire as close to 1.010 as possible. This brew should challenge me. I will ferment low to eliminate rocket fuel fusels. I had originally worked on this recipe using Bravo instead of Centennial, but more research leads me to believe that I can get a tremndous hop flavor and aroma using the blend of these 3 hops. Some spiciness, some fruitiness, and hopefully some of the "lemon-grassiness" of Super Alpha...bring it on!
