Gree Flash west coast ipa clone steps

[Doubleit]

So I am Brand new at home brewing. I am a true hop head and am trying my hand at brewing some home batch's. I found the green flash west coast clone recipe on this forum so many have brewed it and talked about how great this turned out. If Anyone out there can give me some steps in brewing this recipe that would be great. I have all the supplies and equipment i just need some know how on running the wort in the fermentation and dry hop period. This is my first time i don't expect it to be great but i want to get a good start i just need help with the steps! Thanks for your input.

Tasty mentioned adding gypsum, but did not specifiy further. Nathan recommended finding the water report for Santa Cruz, CA. He then said that water additions probably don't play a huge role in this particular beer.

After chilling my wort, I siphon into the fermenter. As for dry hopping, wait till the fermentation is done (3 weeks works for me) and then dry hop for 7-10 days.

Are you doing all-grain brewing? Or extract brewing? That will determine the instructions as well as the ingredients. What do you have for equipment?

 

[Doubleit]

I plan on brewing it all grain (I have never tried to do this before). I have a glass 6 gallon carboy and fermentation bucket a soda keg system. I am planning on using a turkey fryer set up for the heat source for the wort. I just need help on how to start the steeping and fermentation process. The kegging and bottling aspects i have down. Just the steps for going through this process would be awesome . I have done a fair amount of research everyone points to the experts here.

If you haven't already, you should read Palmer's How to Brew. It has all the steps, and will be a good reference as you gain experience.
