I am going to be making my first NEIPA and I’m wondering if others with more experience could guide me? In general is it better to use 2 or 3 well pair hops? Or what about using a bunch of hops that all work together? I am trying to decide between these 2:
Only Simcoe, Citra, and Mosaic
Or
Simcoe, Cenntenial, Cascade, Amarillo, Mosaic, and Citra.
In general is it more pleasing to the pallet to have a couple really clear flavor or is it nicer to have a huge range of flavors? Thank you!
Also, how would I know how much of each hop to use? Is the oil content or something gonna tell me what ratio I should use? How do you decided which hops need more presence? Thank you!
