Hello everyone.
I am trying to develop my first IIPA recipe, and I was hoping for a little help from the people on the HBT forums. Any suggestions on how I can make this better? I am hoping for something similar to DFH 90, but with more citrus bite, so I started with BYO's extract DFH recipe and made some substitutions. What do you think?
Also, my LHBS does not have Amber malt 35*L. I have read that you can roast pale malt relatively easily as a substitute, but all they have is "Belgian Pale Ale." Would that work?
They also don't carry WYEAST 1099. Does White Labs have a similar substitute? I can order both the Amber Malt and the WYEAST if I need to, but I was hoping to avoid that if possible.
Thank you for your help!
1.75 lbs Two-Row Malt
1.66 lbs Amber Malt 35*L
6.4 lbs Pale LME
Boiling Hops
16 AAU Citra hops (90-0 mins)
8.0 AAU Chinook hops (90-0 mins)
8.0 AAU Amarillo hops (90-0 mins)
Dry Hops
1 oz. Citra hops (dry hops)
0.5 oz. Chinook hops (dry hops)
0.5 oz. Amarillo hops (dry hops)
1 tsp. Irish moss (15 mins)
Wyeast 1099 (Whitbread Ale) yeast
.75 cups corn sugar (for priming)
Steep crushed grains in 1.1 gallons (4 L) of water at 150 *F for 45 minutes.
Boil the wort for 105 minutes. Starting with 90 minutes left in the boil, begin slowly and evenly adding hops. Ferment in Primary for 10 days. Dry hop in secondary at 71 *F for 5 days. Transfer back to bottling bucket for another week. Prime and bottle. Condition for 3(?) weeks.
Sorry to ask so many questions. I look forward to hearing your feedback!
