I am altering a recipe that I previously have done in the spring. Around then, it was Dogfishhead's 60-minute IPA. This was where I was introduced to hop scheduling, as they suggest to add an amount of hops over a 60 minute time frame. Being myself, I divided the amounts up evenly so that I could add about 1 pellet of each 3 hops (Warrior, Simcoe, Amarillo) every minute of the boil.

I want to get more highly individual this time around. Not only am I making it partially rye, but I intend to have a more strategic hop schedule with this combo. I must say, I am very excited to give this combo a shot! Let me give you my recipe first, and then what changes are fumbling around in my head:

Steeping Grains:
6 oz. CaraPills

Malt:
4 lbs. Extra Pale DME
3.3 lbs. Briess Rye LME

Hops (mins - oz):
60 - 0.5 Warrior (leftover from spring)
20 - 0.5 Pacific Jade
10 - 0.5 Pacific Jade
5 - 0.5 Pacific Jade
0 - 0.5 Galaxy
+7 days - 1.5 Galaxy, 0.5 Pacific Jade

Yeast:
WLP005 - British Ale Yeast



Considerations:
-Moving the Warrior to 45 or even 30 instead of 60, what would that do? This means no hops at boil begin.

-Moving the Jade @ 20 to 15 instead.

-Starting with one 0.5 portion of Galaxy (in 20/15 position) and sliding the originally planned schedule down one position (before dry hop).



What do you think?

Will this be enough bitter to signify a light, perhaps balanced IPA to bring through that rye malt and facilitate the floral aspects of those Galaxys? Will any rye come through at all? Just give me some feedback in the very least.

Thanks.
