I was going to make an IPA and use an actual whirlpool. My plan was to lower the temp to 170 using my immersion chiller, then add whirlpool hops.
The recipe was going to contain enough bittering hops and a late 5 minute addition to give me about 60 IBUs.
Am I safe to say that if I add around 8 ounces of hops at 170F for 30 minutes that I won't get any bitterness?
I normally just do late additions such as 10 to 0 and am happy with the results. I want to see if I can make a beer a lot hoppier though. I believe that this is what the pros do.
