    Tropical IPA help

    After I added the dry hops it got very very cloudy. I racked it after ten days of dry hopping (I know that was probably too much time). It's still very cloudy. I plan to rack it one more time before bottling. I would cold crash it, but I don't have a refrigerator to hold it.

    I just racked to secondary and added dry hops yesterday. So far so good.

    Tropical IPA help

    Thanks for the comments. I'll switch the pale extract for pilsner extract. I also think your idea of switching out the citra for more galaxy is probably a good one. I want to let the galaxy hops shine in this beer. Regarding the style, I prefer sessionable IPAs over heavy doubles and triples. In...

    Coffee Kiln Cascadian Dark Ale

    I've been drinking this for a few months now. The beer turned out well, but I can see why CDAs are usually brewed with less roast character. The coffee kiln malt was a little out of place, but it is an interesting beer. I was very happy with the chinook hops and will use them again for another...

    Tropical IPA help

    I've brewed a couple of IPAs so far, but I'm still trying to get the hang of building a good recipe, especially the hop schedule. I've had Crux Fermentation Project's Cast Out which uses Galaxy hops which I really enjoyed. My goal for an IPA is to have a beer that is very flavorful with fruit...

    Coffee Kiln Cascadian Dark Ale

    So today was brew day. My LBHS didn't have Carafa III so I got Carafa II. I accidentally got my temp a little high for my steeping grains, but when I tasted the wort it tasted great. My OG was slightly lower than expected at 1.056. My plan is to have my local homebrew club taste this beer when...

    Coffee Kiln Cascadian Dark Ale

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will go with pale malt extract. I moved the first Chinook hop addition from 30 minutes to 15 minutes and added an extra ounce of Chinook for dry hopping. Regarding the style, I guess I just won't be completely true to the CDA style. One of my favorite beers is...

    Coffee Kiln Cascadian Dark Ale

    I'm still pretty new to creating my own recipes, but I have been experimenting with Beersmith as well as comparing with other people's recipes. My local homebrew club is having a competition where everybody received some kiln coffee malt and has to brew a beer with it. The style is open ended...
