I am new to the world of home brewing. I have completed my first batch (a wheat from a kit). I enjoyed brewing from a kit, but want to branch out on my own for my second brew. I love super hoppy, citrusy IPA/IIPAs, and have, after much research, developed the following recipe (which is largely taken from a recipe that I found on BYO with additions of some hops from some of my favorite commercial beers). Let me know any critiques/criticisms.
Thanks for your help. Here is the recipe (for a 5 gallon batch):
Extracts/Grains
6 lbs Pale LME
3.5 lbs Light DME
.75 lbs crystal malt (80L)
.50 lbs carapils malt
Hops
1 oz Nugget (12.5%) (60 mins)
1 oz Simcoe (12.7%) (60 mins)
.5 oz Amarillo (8.2%) (30 mins)
.5 oz Centennial (10%) (30 mins)
.5 oz Columbus (11%) (30 mins)
1.0 oz Amarillo (8.2%) (flameout)
1.0 oz Centennial (10%) (flameout)
1.0 oz Citra (11.1%) (flameout)
1.0 oz Amarillo (8.2%) (dry hop)
1.0 oz Centennial (10%) (dry hop)
1.0 oz Citra (11.1%) (dry hop)
Additions
1/2 tsp. Irish Moss (15 mins)
Yeast
White Labs WLP001 (California Ale)
I am shooting for:
OG = 1.076
FG = 1.019
ABV = 7.4%
