Looking for some feedback on this recipe. Basically I have a bunch of Chinook hops I need to use up. I'm looking at making an American Amber Ale featuring those Chinook hops.
I'm considering 2 different options with only a minor differnce. The first one is listed as Option 1 and the second listed below as Option 2. The only change is without the 10min hop addition. Any thoughts are appreciated.
I'm looking for any and all feedback you may have with this simple recipe, not just limited to the hops differences shown below.
