http://www.midwestsupplies.com/homebrewing-ingredients/recipe-kits/amarillo-pale-ale.html

a amarillo pale ale however i want to add more grapefruity taste and was wondering if i should add some more amarillo hops or should i dryhop with amarillo or sicome and if so how long

Cheers

 

I did an amarillo IPA and dry hopped for 10 days with 2oz of amarillo and it came out pretty grapefruity, you could also try adding dried grapefruit zest if you want a real heavy grapefruit taste.

 

The kit gives a .5oz packet of Columbus,I imagine for bittering. Columbus is good for that grapefruit flavor as well. You could add an ounce of Columbus the last 12-15 minutes of the boil to add more citrus flavor if you want a lor more. Or cut it to a half ounce if a little more grapefruit flavor is desired. They're all good for dry hopping to,one week is good ime.

 

thanks guys i thing im gonna do some zest and dry hop it so like 2oz of zest at 10 min a d dryhop 1 or 2 oz of armorillo for a week?

 

Yeah I would do 1.5 to 2 ounces for the dry hop
