I picked up some Enigma hops from Farmhouse last week and I'm thinking about making an IPA with them I have 12 oz to use in a 10 gallon batch. My system is also limited to 24 lbs of grain in the mash tun, so I'm right at the upper limit. Trying to keep the grain bill simple and let the hops shine.
Title: Riddler
Brew Method: All Grain
Style Name: American IPA
Boil Time: 60 min
Batch Size: 11 gallons (fermentor volume)
Boil Size: 13.5 gallons
Boil Gravity: 1.050
Efficiency: 70% (brew house)
STATS:
Original Gravity: 1.062
Final Gravity: 1.011
ABV: 6.67%
IBU: 84.92
SRM: 4.71
FERMENTABLES:
20 lb - American - Pale 2-Row (80%)
2 lb - American - Munich - Light 10L (8%)
1 lb - American - Carapils (Dextrine Malt) (4%)
2 lb - Corn Sugar - Dextrose (8%)
HOPS:
0.5 oz - Apollo, Type: Pellet, AA: 18.3, Use: Boil for 60 min, IBU: 15.76
2 oz - Enigma, Type: Pellet, AA: 18.4, Use: Boil for 15 min, IBU: 31.46
2 oz - Enigma, Type: Pellet, AA: 18.4, Use: Boil for 5 min, IBU: 12.64
4 oz - Enigma, Type: Pellet, AA: 18.4, Use: Whirlpool for 20 min at 180 F, IBU: 25.06
4 oz - Enigma, Type: Pellet, AA: 18.4, Use: Dry Hop for 5 days
MASH GUIDELINES:
1) Infusion, Temp: 152 F, Time: 60 min
Starting Mash Thickness: 1.35 qt/lb
YEAST:
WLP013 - London Ale (this has sorta become my house strain, and it supposedly does alright for IPAs)
Ferment at 64 F
Anyone have suggestions on how to best use the limited amount of hops I have? I'm almost thinking about dropping the 60 min bittering addition, which would drop the IBUs to about 70 and the IBU/OG ratio closer to 1.
