Just wondering (can't find this in any search anywhere), but has anyone ever just added say 1 Oz of 3 different hops, and then just divided that combination into 4 equal parts, and used that as a 15/10/5/0 additions?
I have read hundreds of post about what hop combo and at what schedule...and while I know that different hops have different contributions...there is just so many varying opinions..
For example....if I search for centennial simcoe and citra pairings, there's about 100 different examples, all with different additions, and all at different times...add another hop of say cascade, and wow, that really complicates things
So that got me to thinking about just blending a bunch together, and then using a basic schedule of say 15/10/5/0.....not random hops, obviously using hops that work together well....but just adding all to a big zip lock then measuring out each scheduled addition and seeing how it works.
