So I'm planning to do a ~5 gal BIAB batch of an approximate Congress Street IPA clone in the next week or so. I've been using these two threads and the page for the beer as some loose guidance, and I have a rough recipe that I've created. This is actually going to be my first BIAB brew--up until now I've only done extract. Anyway, I'm just looking for some general critique on the recipe as it stands. Here's what I've got:
Grain:
Hops:
Not entirely sure about yeast, maybe Conan/Vermont Ale? Using that in Brewer's Friend, this comes out to 7.2% ABV, 77 IBU for a 5.5 gal batch.
Again, any critique/comments are appreciated. Thanks!
