So I'm finally getting around to it. Here's the goals for my single hop brew:
1. Experiment with a single hop the entire boil
2. Use the hop in all phases of boil (Bittering, Flavor, Aroma)
3. Use a grain bill that is not complex, so that the hop flavors can come through
4. Use the same grain bill for all single hop experiments for comparison
5. Use a the same clean yeast strain for all brews
6. Use up whatever I have on hand, so that all I have to buy is the grain
Although the recipe is for 6 gallons, I am going to split wort into 3 two-gallon brews and adjust hops accordingly.
Grain Bill for 6 gallons 1.051 OG at 75% efficiency
10 lb. 2-row
0.75 lb. Crystal 35
0.75 lb. Victory
Hop Schedule Totaling around 30 IBU
17 IBU 60 min
8 IBU 30 min
3 IBU 15
2 IBU 5 min
1 oz dry
White Labs 001 CA Ale
Possible hop choices include:
Chinook, Columbus, Liberty, Magnum, Nugget, Target, Tettnanger
