That amarillo IPA turned out great. For a 15 minute boil you can't beat this recipe and all its offshoots!

It is amazing how good it is! I did one using Citra. It was delicious!

Mrs. Peruvian just came home from the HB shop and picked up the ingredients for this. I have lots of cascade on hand so I thought I would brew up a quick batch on the stovetop. I dropped the C60 and my wort chiller in as soon as I put the heat on and will follow the hop schedule. I've got some Notty slurry to dump in the fermenter.

Fingers crossed!

Did my third batch this past friday. First batch all cascade second dry hopped with centennial it was pretty good. This batch will be dry hopped with citra which should be pretty good too.

S.G. is 1.022 today. I think it's going to be time to dry hop soon

So this was the best beer I have made so far. Nice hop bitterness and flavor.

I plan on brewing this again soon, but IPA strength with a mix of Cascade and Centennial whole hops that I was given. Since AA's aren't known on homegrown hops, I will use a known quantity for the bittering charge at 15 min, and do a hopstand at 170F with the homegrown hops. This should be an awesome IPA!

Did another variation of his. Used 1# of carastan and 2 oz. of roasted barley to get a bit more malt flavour and color.
Centennial at 15 and 10 with Citra and mosaic at 5. Safale 04 for yeast this time.

As a new dad with s busy schedule this recipe is great as I can get a batch done in a couple hours. And it's always super tasty!

 

[animan]

Anyone tried a Chinook heavy version of this?

yes, to me it tastes a bit like ashtrays though!

First time to use Chinook, an interesting hop but definitely not love at first taste, Citra/Simcoe versions were great!

I was going to say I am about to make this recipe again soon, but at this point, mine now uses 6 different hops and I will be trying the Vermont IPA yeast strain on it next to change it up. My recipe uses the principle of the short boil, but otherwise it keeps morphing into something else. It is refined enough that it has already won a stein against 42 other pale ales with my last version which I made twice.

I have made varieties of this 5 times now and it is too easy not to. I just like blending a bunch of hops to see how they affect the final outcome. It's the perfect house beer.

I agree! I add a pound of sugar and a 30min flame out steep to bring it up into IPA territory. Outstanding recipe to build off of!

After a few months just sitting in the fridge, crystal clear!View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1445197899.315052.jpg

Thanks for this recipe. With a 6 month old baby I've been working on speeding up my brew time. This was a great recipe to try out. Took me ~2 hours start to finish with cleanup. I used a combination of Cascade and Mosaic. Going to dry hop with an ounce of Amarillo in a couple weeks. Thanks again for the recipe, I look forward to trying it. Cheers

 

[GenIke]

Love messing with this recipe. Yesterday I bumped up the extract by a pound and added 1/2 pound of sugar to kick it into IPA range. I used centennial and citra which should be a good combo.

 

[guitarguy6]

Trying out a 15min boil for the first time. Using 7.5lb Briess golden lme, 1/2lb Crystal 40, 1/2lb Munich Light. 2oz Columbus 15 min, 1oz Cascade 5min, 1oz Centennial whirlpool, 1oz Cascade dry hop. 2.5 Gallon boil. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

 

[Maksimus54]

Love this recipe. Dead simple and very tasty. I tried doing it with Belma hops and it picked up some really nice fruity citrus flavors including a bit of pineapple. Will be making another batch soon, as mentioned before me an awesome house recipe to always keep on hand.

Trying two small batches of this, one with a full 60 min boil and one with a 15 min boil. Swapped out cascade for mosaic. Increased the DME quantity by about 20%. This is the 15 min boil at pitching time and at 48 hours.

Here are both batches at 48 hours:

Curious, anyone try this with the dry belle saison yeast? I've been wanting to try that yeast and this is already a solid recipe.

 

[alexacuna]

Brewed this at some point recently, and it's been in bottles for about two weeks and is my favorite beer so far. I'm hoping to develop an AG version to have as a house ale.

This quick extract seemed to force itself into my house pale. It's just so easy and quick and good. It just seems to have different hops most of the times

 

[carlk47]

What are you all using for water with this? I've used filtered tap water in the past with extract recipes and I always get some sort of "bite" that I don't get with my all grain beers. Wonder if using bottled distilled water might be the better route? Will probably try this next batch.

Here's my mosaic version. Came out great and didn't last long.

Moe Szyslak

6lb Amber DME
1lb Crystal 60 steeped

1.75oz Mosaic FWH
1oz Mosaic @ 5'
1oz Mosaic Whirlpool @ 180 degrees for 20'
2oz Mosaic Dry Hop for five days
2oz Mosaic dry hop for three days

1272

So easy and so good. I've already used this technique for a centennial blonde with another version of this recipe on deck with 2oz of Simcoe, 8oz of Centennial and Wyeast 1217 West Coast IPA.

How'd you end up doing the centennial blonde?

How do you do the FWH with extract and steeping grains? Throw it in the water when you add the steeping grains?

That's what I'd be assuming.

If I wanted to make a 2.5 gallon batch is it as simple as cutting everything in half or do I need to do something different with the hops?

Do you use any Brewers software? That'll help anytime you wanna scale down.

 

[alexacuna]

10 pounds pale malt and 1 pound crystal 60L seem like a decent conversion to all grain?

Beersmith says yes.
