Hops

what kind of experience does anyone have with centennial hops. I have about 9 0z. and am wondering what are some good brews to use them in. I just finished 4 gal. of wheat with them. I was going for a Belgian white, but I'm not sure If the IBU's will qualify It as one. Just Interested In what you guys have to say, and Thanks for any help! Peace From Zion Brewing, Adrian Grimaldo

Stone Ruination IPA is stacked with Centennial

I use .5 oz magnum for bittering and then 1 oz centennial at 20, 15 and 5 minutes left in the boil for my pale ale recipe. I like centennial alot for flavor and aroma.

Sorry Don't Speak German, I tried to get my Grandmother to Interpret, She wants to know what you mean if I follow the cleanliness law of some other? Thanks Though I'll look into an IPA for sure.

Ok, So would you recommend using a bittering hop with the centennial? Or will these be good In an IPA by themselves?

You have enough centennial to use for bittering. 9 ounces is plenty. Try 1 ounce at 60, 20, 10 and flame out. That would make a very nice tasting beer in an APA recipe. I like hops! :rockin:

I'm Also A fan of hoppy beers, Cheers To ya Brother. I'll Give my next brew this advice, and see what I come up with.

You should be able to get a Bell's Two-Hearted in IN. It's hopped with all Cent.

An all Centennial IPA would be killer. Go crazy and make an IIPA with all 9 ounces! :cross:

Awesome title.

I used 2 oz. 1@60min, and 1@20 for an APA great, just great. Mine were pellets.

what make up a great IPA Grain wise. I've looked at some recipes, and seen that a lot of people use crystal malt, 2nd Row, and even some some chocolate malt. I want to do a 4 gal. batch. I have 5 pounds victory gold, and a lot of 2nd row. what would you recommend I add to this mix? Thanks from Zion Brewing!

I'm pretty sure that Stone's IPA, Ruination and Bell's Two Hearted all use centennial hops, and are all delicious.

I could be wrong but I heard somewhere that ruination has some magnums in there
