I don't like my beer too bitter, but hops are a necessary part of the beer. What is the amount of, say, Cascade hops (Alpha 6.3%, Beta 6.6%) to the wort during the boil, figuring the amount per gallon? I have read that adding at the preboil and then some at the end of the boil is a good rule of thumb.
I also have a small bit of Hallertau (3.8 Alpha) and Crystal (4.8% Alpha) besides the Cascade. Making a dark beer from Briess CBW Special Dark liquid malt extract.
