Brewing another IPA tomorrow
heres what I am planning so far. Hoping for something thats well balanced with a slightly piny hop backbone (a la Simcoe) and citrus/floral on top.
12# Pale 2 row
0.75# crystal 20L
.25# crystal 60L
1oz Simcoe 60min
1oz Cascade 25min
1oz Cascade 15min
1oz Cascade Flameout
1oz Ahtanum dry hop 7 days in secondary
US05 yeast
Beersmith has this coming in at
OG 1.068
70.7 IBU
7.4 SRM
7% ABV
Since I have some on hand, I am toying with the idea of adding a small amount of crystal 80L (maybe only 0.1# - 0.25# at most) to bring the color up a tad. However, I wonder if this may bring sweetness/caramel notes a tad too high and drown some of the hops.
Suggestions, comments, critiques are much appreciated.
-Cheers
