I'm going to try a late extract addition in my next brew (NB Chinook IPA). Since hop utilization is dependent on wort gravity and duration of boil, it seems that I could reduce the amount of hops and reduce the boil time to obtain the same IBUs in the end. Would it be OK to do a 30 minute boil, or should I only reduce the hops and keep the 60 minute boil?
Original Recipe:
1 lb DME
6 lbs LME
1 oz Chinook (13% AA) for 60 min
0.5 oz Chinook for 10 min
0.5 oz Chinook for 1 min
IBUs by following the recipe are about 33, according to my calculations - based on Palmer's book.
Modified Recipe:
1 lb DME
1 lb LME
0.75 oz Chinook for 30 min
0.40 oz Chinook for 5 min
0.40 oz Chinook for 30 seconds
5 lbs LME at flameout
IBUs are 37 by my calculations.
Thanks!
