So I brewed up a Three Floyds GumballHead Clone three weeks ago using this recipe:
Grain Bill (70% Efficiency assumed)
6 lbs. - Wheat Malt
5 lbs. - 2-Row Pale Malt
1 lb. - Caravienne Malt
Hop Schedule (27 IBU)
1/4 oz. - Amarillo - First Wort Hop
1/4 oz. - Amarillo - 60 min.
1/2 oz. - Amarillo - 15 min.
1.25 oz. - Amarillo - 5 min.
1 oz. - Amarillo - 1 min.
1.5 oz. - Amarillo - Dry Hop
My OG was around 1.060 and FG 1.018.
I am currently dry hopping 2oz of amarillo pellets in a sanitized paint strainer in the keg. It was in the primary for 2 weeks before these past week. I used store bought spring water, sanitize with recommended doses of iodine, cool with a counter flow chiller, and force carbonate in a keg. I smelled all the hops before using them, all are fresh and smell great. Yeast was Us-05
I have no idea why I have basically no hop aroma in this beer.
I tried doing research online and really couldn't come up with anything.
Does anyone have any ideas? I made an IPA which I also dry-hopped with 2 oz of centennial and that has limited aroma as well.
I'm truly baffled.
