Im from Australia and have used Galaxy alot for my session ales and american wheats and also thrown them into a IPA. One thing that I learnt about this hop is that it has very strong and overwelhming astringencys when used anywhere apart from late in the kettle @ sub 15mins. Can you tell me...

Looking at that recipe it could do with some slight changes, especially the 1.9 lbs of roasted barley....looks like a typo and should have been 0.19 lbs right? Anyway with the crystal malts I would put them like this: 0.75 lbs Crystal 60L 0.5 lbs Crystal 120L 0.25 lbs Carapils 0.19 lbs...

With that malt bill which looks like the Electric Pale Ale grain & %'s so I would hop it the same with all late kettle additions. Leave out the FWH and hop like this: Citra & Cascade @ 20min - 15ibu Citra & Cascade @ 10min - 15ibu Citra & Cascade @ 2mins - 10ibu Whirlpool at the end of...

adding it to the finished beer...hmmm not sure that will help, its normally a mash/sparge/boil addition, start planning for the next one to add the salts.

I have found that the overall hop character improved right through when adding gypsum, before that i didnt have an issue with bitterness from a 90 or 60min addition but struggled to get the flavour and solid aroma until i used Gypsum. Try it out and see if that moves you closer to your target.

Hi Rafael, Go ahead and try the method Flars has suggested, i think that you will notice a difference when they have had at least 14days to bottle condition. One other thing you can do is increase the sulphate contents of the water by using Gypsum ( Calcium Sulphate ) by adding about 10g...

For me, getting the water chemistry understood made a huge difference to my pale ales and IPAs. Now when ever i make a hoppy beer I always add enough calcium sulphate (gypsum) to get my calcium to 150ppm and sulphate to 300ppm and those hops shine right through. That amount for me on a 21lt...

Hi Sklar, If i was using those hops I would just use the following: Warrior @ 60m - 30Ibu Cascade/Columbus/Chinook @ 10m - 40ibu Dry Hopped with the same combo used at 10mins. I think the mosaic would blend well with the 2 C hops and is worth a try also.

Hi Ron, What were the wheat recipes and styles of the 2 wheats you have already made? This will help me to answer your Q in the right direction for what you could do with them or what you could try next for another wheat beer.
