Hey All,
First attempt at building my own recipe for my next batch and I wanted some opinions from more experienced brewers (read: everyone besides me)
I'm limited to boil size by my 5gal brew kettle while I save up for my 10gal boilermaker, so this is a 2.5gal recipe designed with the help of my iPad and iBrewMaster to hit my desired style and still allow me to do a full boil and cool my wort effectively. I'm a huge fan of hop-heavy ales, the more bite the better, so here's what I came up with!
American IPA (per BJCP guidelines)
OG: 1058
FG: 1015
ABV: 5.63%
Color: 8.9 SRM
IBUs: 80
8oz Crystal 20L (steeped for 20min @ 155F)
3lbs Light DME
1oz Amarillo @ 60min
0.5oz Cascade @ 20min
0.5oz Cascade @ 5min
Nottingham Ale Yeast
What do you say? Any recommended adjustments? Drinkable?
Thanks!
