I am getting interested in designing my own beers, and I understand most of the parameters, I am still not sure though that I understand scheduling, and how it affects the final outcomes of beers.
So, in my total ignorance, I mixed up this IPA, which I am sure is pretty generic, but seems like it could be interesting. I am sure to you pros though, it's a mess. Using this recipe, could you tell me a bit more about how scheduling and hop selection will change flavor. Other than IBUs, that's pretty straight forward.
Thanks
Grain Rahr Standard 2-Row 10 lbs 8 oz
Carmel Vienna 1.5 lbs
2 Row Carmel 10 8 Oz
2 Row Carmel 60 8 oz
Carapils 8 Oz
Columbus 1 oz-60 minutes
Centennial .5 oz-45 minutes
Simcoe .5oz 15 minutes
Centennial .5 oz 10 minutes
Amarillo .5 oz 5 minutes
Simcoe 1 oz 0 minutes
Dry hop-Cascade
The thought here was a sort of darker, citrusy IPA without getting into IIPA territory, although the IBUs are high. Maybe drop the Centennial at 45? That drops 20 IBUs Here are the calculations:
OG 1.069
FG 1.017
IBUs 75.3
ABV 6.8
SRM 11 (Could go darker?)
