Hi everyone - I'm getting ready to brew an Imperial IPA. I would like this beer to have a dry finish. I have set up my recipe to have an OG of 1.085. When I put the recipe into the Brewers Friend calculator it comes back with an FG of 1.020. I would like to get this beer down to the 1.012 - 1.014 range. I am planning on mashing at 152F, I have tried to change the temp down to 148 for a more ferment able wort but this doesn't change the FG in the calculator. Are there any other techniques I can use to bring down the FG? The recipe is as follows:
13 lbs. Pale 2 row
.75 lbs crystal 40
.75 lbs corn sugar
.50 lbs carapils
2oz chinook - 60 min
1oz cascade - 25 min
.5 oz citra - 15 min
.5 oz cascade - 10 min
.5 oz centennial - 1 min
1.5 oz centennial / .5 citra - dry hop 10 days
WLP 001 California yeast
Thanks.
