I'm currently reading the IPA book by Mitch Steele, and i was inspired by our forefathers and their brewing techniques.
So I decided to try an experiment. I was brewing an Arrogant Bastard clone and had a high grain bill, so after my initial mash and I was starting my AB boil. I mashed the grains a second time. The preboil gravity was about .025 kinda low so i added about 1lb of DME. Got an OG of .052 And used about 2 oz of northern brewer 1 oz FWH and 1 oz at 15 min. Used 1056 I washed from a previous brew. And fermented for about a 10 days and then bottled let bottle condition for about 6 weeks and is amazingly crisp and and clear. Very easy drinker for when I don't want a strong ipa and I got an extra 5 galons of beer at no Xtra cost.
