Hi All,
I'm working on an IPA recipe featuring the Cascade/Willamette hops combo. I want it to push the limits of the the American IPA style, but not quite be an "imperial" IPA... I just want a nice strong IPA. I plan on using Magnums for bittering to get the IBUs up without adding too much flavor (I have plenty on hand.)
Anyways, I'm open to suggestions on the hop schedule as well as the grain bill. I do want to keep the IBUs/OG about where I have specified.
