Scoobydoobynooby here. I'm planning on brewing my first non-kit recipe next Tuesday. Name is One Legged Hop (In honor of my flyfishing buddy who shattered his ankle when his deck collapsed this spring). Style is IIPA. I love Alpha King, Ruination, Pliny...who wouldn't? Anyway the malt bill is Alpha King esque (Pale liquid extract with a minimash with carapils, melanoidin (sp?), crystal 40L and a touch of special B. Hops are 60min 1oz warrior, 45min 1 oz chinook, 30min 1oz centennial, 10min 1 oz simcoe and 1oz cascade and 1 oz amarillo at 0 min. Dry hop for a couple wks with centenial,amarillo and simcoe. Beer Smith Says Ibus around 90 and OG around 1.070. Color=17 (a bit dark I know). Was going with White Labs Cali Ale V but forgot to order and then on a whim ordered Rogue Pacman. So....Do I use the Pacman or go back to my plan of White Labs Cali Ale V? Also, I do have some White Labs Cali V at the bottom of my secondary underneath a ton of Centennial pellet dry hop covering (from a Dales Pale clone that I'm about to bottle). Should I rinse that and use it? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
