I'm going with the following recipe, can anyone give me suggestions as to whether my planned hop schedule is okay:
MALTS
4.5 oz British Crystal 50-60 L
6 oz Caramunich
6 oz Caravienne
6 lbs Light DME
HOPS (all pellets)
1.1 oz Cluster 6.9% AA @ 60 min*
0.3 oz Magnum 12.3% AA @ 60 min
1 oz Cascade 6.4% AA @ 20 min
0.8 oz East Kent Goldings @ flameout
* = 1 oz hop bags seem to contain about 1.2 oz when I get them.
Safale US-56 yeast
Is this too much in the way of hops for say an amber/red ale? Too much in the way of finishing hops, perhaps I should remove them all together?
Any suggestions, critiques, or insults?
