Pliny withdrawls

[moinkyschmoink]

So simcoe is toast. A month or so ago I finished my last Pliny the Elder clone and ever since then every ipa I drink is just not as good as they used to be. So after denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance I am going to move on and give my own "hop murder" recipe a shot (partial mash)...

I'd love to see it, but I can't really find anything on your site...

Stuff is on the left. Click on 'Hops'.

I actually find it to be one of the simplest sites to navigate, no opening page or confusing menu, just simple easy organization.

Just ordered a pound of Simcoe from Farmhouse. Now if they'll find me some Nelson Sauvin & Galaxy my life will be complete.

I must have been half asleep last night. I never saw the "Hop Packs" link.

Next week, they will be here.

The Pliny just sold out but will have a few more in the next couple days.

Just made this Pliny clone (based off the one printed in Brew Your Own). Replaced Warrior with Magnum because I had an abundance of the later. The 60 minute Chinook addition was entirely accidental (mash addition also reads as 60 min.) Also had more boil off than I wanted, so ended up with 4.75 gal instead of 5.5.

Boil Size: 7.48 gal
Post Boil Volume: 5.98 gal
Batch Size (fermenter): 4.75 gal
Bottling Volume: 4.25 gal
Estimated OG: 1.083 SG
Estimated Color: 7.2 SRM
Estimated IBU: 285.2 IBUs
Brewhouse Efficiency: 69.00 %
Est Mash Efficiency: 85.4 %
Boil Time: 90 Minutes

13 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) UK (3.0 SRM) Grain 85.9 %
13.8 oz Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 5.7 %
4.5 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 1.8 %
1.80 oz Chinook [11.00 %] - Mash 60.0 min Hop 11.5 IBUs

Mashed in at 150 F

1 lbs Corn Sugar (Dextrose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar 6.6 %
4.29 oz Magnum [10.00 %] - Boil 90.0 min Hop 133.5 IBUs
0.56 oz Chinook [11.00 %] - Boil 90.0 min Hop 19.2 IBUs
1.80 oz Chinook [11.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 57.6 IBUs

1.00 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Boil 30. Hop 31.3 IBUs
0.30 tsp Irish Moss (Boil 10.0 mins) Fining -
2.00 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Boil 0.0 min Hop 0.0 IBUs
1.00 oz Simcoe [13.00 %] - Boil 0.0 min Hop 0.0 IBUs

Used a 2 vial starter of California Ale (White Labs #WLP001), kept on a stir plate for two days. Air lock started bubbling in under 3 hours!

1.75 oz Simcoe [13.00 %] - Dry Hop 3.0 Days Hop 0.0 IBUs
3.25 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Dry Hop Hop 0.0 IBUs
