After making a starter of some WLP099 Super High Gravity Ale Yeast, I decided it was time to try making something that resembled Dogfish Head 120. However, I used the malt bill of Pliny the Younger and Conan yeast to start it, plus I used some aspects of Pliny and Heady's hop schedule.
1 gallon:
3 lbs 2-row
3 oz CaraPils
1.5 oz C40
Mash at 145* for 75 min
Mash at 155* for 10 min
Sparge at 168*
1 oz Polaris, 1/4 oz CTZ, 1/8 oz each Apollo, Bravo, Warrior, and Millenium @ 120
1 oz CTZ @ 45 (like PTY)
1/2 oz Simcoe @ 30 (like PTY)
Whirlflock @ 15
1 oz mix of Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, El Dorado, Amarillo, Galaxy, and Stella @ 15
3/4 oz mix of Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, El Dorado, Amarillo, Galaxy, and Stella @ 5
1/4 Apollo @ 5 (like Heady)
3/4 oz mix of Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, El Dorado, Amarillo, Galaxy, and Stella @ 0
1/4 CTZ @ 0 (like PTY)
30 minute hop stand
1/2 oz mix of Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, El Dorado, Amarillo, Galaxy, and Stella @ 180* Aroma Steep 30 min (like Heady)
OG is 1.080, and the IBUs calculate to an absolutely massive 1200+. I pitched 70 billion cells of Conan to start things off.
