Just got a blichmann hoprocket. Going to use it as a hopback for the first time this weekend. I just came up with a IPA recipe going off of the grain and hops I have available at my house. Let me know your thoughts on this one.

Grain.

21 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 80.8 %
3 lbs Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM) Grain 2 11.5 %
2 lbs Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 3 7.7 %

Boil Hops

1.00 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 4 21.7 IBUs
1.00 oz Summit [17.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 5 26.3 IBUs
1.00 oz Cascade [5.50 %] - Boil 10.0 min Hop 6 3.1 IBUs
1.00 oz Bravo [14.20 %] - Boil 5.0 min Hop 7 4.4 IBUs

after the boil run it through the hoprocket that will have 2 oz columbus and 1 oz bravo (this 3 oz will all be leaf hops).

WLP001 for yeast.

Est Original Gravity: 1.067
Est Final Gravity: 1.014
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 6.9 %
Bitterness: 55.5 IBUs
Est Color: 10.2 SRM


Any thoughts or things you would change???

thanks for checking this out!!
