I'm putting together a batch with ingredients I have left over form previous batches. To work with I have 15 lbs 2 row, 2 lbs caramucich, 1 lbs of crystal 60, 2 oz of northern brewer, 1oz kent golding, 1oz galaxy (not using those). I also have 8oz of oak chips and pack of london ale yeast 1318. I want the northern brewer to come trough in flavor and don't the beer to get any higher than 50 IBUs.
Any thoughts on the hops schedule will the northern brew swamp out the kent golding? I also what the malty flavor to come through a little more so I might mash it at a higher temp. Any thoughts on this strain of yeast? Lastly what do yall think about making oak chip tea vs putting oak chips in the secondary?
