I recently purchased 1lb of centennial hops and thought I'd brew an all centennial APA. Wondering if you guys and gals can weigh in and let me know your thoughts/suggestions. I'd like it to be medium bodied with a bit of a malt backbone. Recipe below. The weird decimal quantities are because I did a quick conversion from metric. All input appreciated.
