Hi all -
This site has been a life-saver for me so far. I just started about 6 months ago and am hooked. I am going onto my 6th batch, which will be my 3rd attempt at an IPA (the first, I toasted 1lb of crystal too long and ended up with a good Brown Ale, the second ended up not being super hoppy, but decent citrus notes, probably from the Willamette in the dry hop??) Anyways I need a bit of help. I am brewing up a recipe (partial mash) with the following -
6lbs of extra light DME
1 lb of 2 row pale
2 lbs of Marris Otter
.5 lb each or Crystal (40L) and Cara Pils
1 pkg of Safele S-04 English Ale Yeast
The hops are as follows (no schedule yet, that's where I could use a hand) :
4 oz Cascade
4 oz Amarillo
2 oz Citra
2 oz Simcoe
2 oz Columbus
I love extremely hoppy IPA's with a slight note of grapefruitiness at the end. Any suggestions on a good schedule (I plan on dry-hopping in the secondary).
Thanks
