Hi!
I was planning to do a 2.5 gallons batch of Jamil's amber ale (from Brewing Classic Styles). However, my LHBS (which is quite small, but have a good turnaround) didn't carry any of the required hops.
The official recipe required:
Horizon @ 60 min
Centennial & Cascade @ 10 min
Centennial & Cascade @ 0 min
But he gave me Citra (instead of Horizon), Amarillo (instead of Centennial) and Simcoe (instead of Cascade).
So, what would be the most appropriate schedule for these hops? Which of those three should I use for bittering purpose? And which ones should @ 10 min and @ 0 min? I'm under the impression that using Citra solely for bittering purpose is kind of a crime.
Thank you!
