Probably be totally undrinkable, send all bottles to me.Brewed extract yesterday but found out I got chinook instead of cascade hops. Ended up using centennial only. Hopefully it won't affect the taste too bad.

Do you think this would work well as a brew in a bag? Would I have to add some grain to make up for lower effeciency?

I made it for a BBQ in 10 days, grain to glass.
But having made probably 50 gallons of the stuff.. it' so much better at about 5-6 weeks. A bit harsh when it's young.
I found the extract version of this very popular centennial ale. Since I am a noob, I need a little more direction. When do I add the carapils dextrine? Do I just throw them in the boil whole? For the adding the hops I'm assuming I can just follow the ag recipe times?

How do you think this recipe would be using centennial hops only. I hate to open up two packages only to throw half of each away.
Throw them away? Dear God, man! Put 'em in a ziploc bag in the freezer! Pellet hops will keep for a while!
I decided to brew the extract version of this and made 5 1-gallon batches using different yeasts. The yeasts I used were Munich, Nottingham, Safale US-05, Safbrew S-33, and S-04. For my tastes I liked the S-33 and S-04, but I am not a fan of using the Munich. At least now I know how different yeasts affect the beer now.
cincybrewer said:Also, for the extract brewers who have brewed this. And there appears to be a lot of you. How did it turn out. I did this once last summer and it didn't turn out well but I'm 99% sure it was because my keg orings weren't replaced. I'm thinking about giving it another go but wouldn't mind some feedback on the extract version.
