I made a IPA and it came out well, just not as hoppy as I would have liked it to be. I also wanted a higher gravity so here goes:
18 lb. 2 row
1 lb. Caramel 40 L
2 oz. Cascade pellets at start
1 oz. Williamette at 60 min
1 oz. U.K. Kent Golding at 128 min
1 oz. cascade at finish
Primary 1 week
Dry hop with 1 oz. Cascade leaf hops in secondary for 2-3 weeks
This will probably get me up to around 1.050-1.060 SG. What do you think of the hop additions? The last batch was very similar except no 1 oz cascade at end and no dry hop as well as 12.5 lb 2 row and 1/2 lb. caramel. This batch started at 1.045. Hop taste is strong up front but fades halfway through the beer and is replaced by more of a sweet taste.
