I'm working on my next recipe. It's going to be an American Amber using Nugget and Williamette as the hops. I'm looking for a nice smooth bittering targeting a BU/GU of around 0.70. There seems to be two competing methods to achieve this. The first is first wart hopping and the other is to late load all the hops.
Hop schedule with FWH:
Hop schedule with all late additions:
Does anyone have any comments about either choice?
