Today is the perfect day to brew a batch of beer! This is my first IPA attempt and my first attempt at creating a recipe. I have the brewr app for my android phone and I created the recipe using that. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

1.0 oz Cascade whole leaf 9.1aa 5min 6.0ibu
2.0 oz Cascade whole leaf 9.1aa dry hop 7 days after primary fermentation

I'm sure I have a step missing or two. I'll get it right when I get started. I have two wild boys and a new puppy distracting me right now! Let me know what you think. Thanks!
