Hi All
I came across a recipe I like the look of - Citra Pale Ale Oddsides clone
I had to adjust slightly to fit what my LHBS has and my equipment.
Here is my recipe
Method - BIAB
Batch Size - 12L
60min Mash
3kg Pale Malt 2 row
300g torrified wheat (well crushed - to replace flaked wheat)
200g Crystal Malt 40L
60min Boil
16g Citra @ 15min
16g Citra @ 10min
8g Citra @ 5min
8g Citra @ 1min
24g Citra @ 0min
0.5 Whirlfloc tab @ 15min
US-05 yeast - rehydrated (1 x 11.5g pack)
28g Citra Dry Hop - 7 days
14 days in primary, prime with corn sugar, bottle straight from there.
Beersmith gives me @ 65% efficiency
OG - 1.057
FG - 1.012
ABV - 5.9
IBU - 44.9
ERM - 14.4
Numbers look good to me (newbie)
Questions -
1. would this have a good hop aroma/flavour (I want that) and am I dry hopping with enough (1 ounce in 12L), how long should I dry hop for?
2. Is 1 pack of US-05 the right amount (should I pitch dry or rehydrate?)
3. Would the additions of crystal malt and torrified wheat add some good body/head retention
4. If I wanted a bit more bitterness, could I use some left of tettnanger I have early in the boil, or would this clash with Citra
Thanks in advance - bare in mind this is my second All Grain attempt.
