Double IPA Stone Enjoy By IPA

[RMPriest]

This recipe looks great.

I have a question though. With the huge amount of hops, how much actual beer do you end up with? If it is a 6 gallon batch do you have to start with a lot more water to make up for the trub loss? I haven't brewed a big ipa yet so this is new to me!

I'm new to this myself but from what little experience I have, I would say.
It really depends on how much beer you want to have at the end of the process. Accounting for all loss at every stage of production. This can only be accurately calculated by knowing your equipment and ingredients then adjusting the recipe size so at the end you have the volume of beer you're shooting for.
If you look at some recipes that require large dry hop additions the volume of beer absorbed by the hops is subtracted to get the final quantity.
Hope that made sense. Cheers!

You definitely lose at least 1/2 gallon to dry hop sludge.

FYI, my batch with WLP090 settled out at 1.010 for an ABV of 9.4%. It's dry hopping right now. I'll post some updates once it's in the keg

Hi everyone.

I'm still a bit of a newbie to home brewing. Stone IPA is one of my favorites for sure! Does anyone know an extract recipe for this? I haven't gotten into all grain brewing yet.

Thanks!

 

[RMPriest]

You totally could, as there isn't a complicated grain bill. I'd say just use enough straight extra light DME to get you to 1.080-1.081

My only concern would be how fermentable of a wort that would create. So with that said, I'd use more dextrose to compensate. Say 1.5-1.75lbs. Just adjust your extract accordingly to hit an OG of 1.081

Also, if you really wanted to get fancy, you could use 50/50 extra light DME and Marris otter extract. I'm not sure how much of a difference it would make, so I doubt it's critical.

I'd say it's worth trying, this beer is amazing.

Here's your answer.

This is for Stone's "Enjoy By" IPA (really a double IPA) and not the regular IPA. Here's a recipe for the regular Stone IPA

Substitute .6# light DME for each pound of pale malt (so 6.3# in this recipe) and steep the grains as you normally would for an extract w/ specialty grains recipe.

Thank you!

Going on my "to brew" list

 

[hogwash]

Any thoughts on good substitutes for the Delta and Calypso hops? I found a vendor that has everything that I don't already have (Motueka, Citra, Nelson, Target, & Galaxy) but they don't have Delta or Calypso. I have plenty of the following: Cascade (thinking this one for the Delta maybe?), Columbus, Simcoe, Amarillo, Centennial, and Apollo. Going to use Apollo for the bittering hop.

 

[GrowlerMonkey]

What vendor were you able to find all those hops from?

Also, does anyone know when hop vendors typically get their new supplies? It seems like everyone is low...I know they typically harvest in September, but just wondering when the new harvest will usually hit the market.

 

[hogwash]

Labelpeelers.com. They are pretty well stocked still on most stuff. I think amarillo is about the only one they are completely sold out of. I want to say they started taking pre-orders for the 2012 crop late last fall or it may have even been december. I may be mis-remembering that though. The 2013 southern hemisphere crop (nelson, galaxy, motueka) just became available in the last month or so.

 

[hogwash]

I got everything for this brew, with a few substitutions, and will be brewing hopefully tomorrow. I couldn't find WLP007 yeast locally so I have 2 packets of S04. Also, I'll be substituting Apollo for the mash hop and the hop extract and will substitute Cascade for the Delta. I'll let you know how it goes!

I brewed this today using 10 lbs of American and 7 lbs of English 2 row. I had to adjust the hops a bit based on my inventory.

One thing to note...
I had to mash overnight because kids. I got great efficiency, probably close to 80%. I do biab.

I'll oxygenate and pitch a huge amount if 05 tomorrow (I finish the cooling in the fermenter).

I will keep you posted!

 

[hogwash]

Brewed this yesterday. I guess I was short on my strike water volume as I ended up a good gallon short post-boil. But my OG was over 1.090 so I ended up diluting with a gallon of boiled & cooled water. What a pain in the a$$ but I bet I'll pay closer attention to my water amounts next time. Pitched 2 packets of S-04 and it's humming along nicely this morning. Hopefully my screw up didn't affect the beer too badly. Of all the batches to screw up on, it had to be THIS one.:smack:

UPDATE: Blowing off like a mofo now, just about 24hrs after pitching.

Quick update. I it took a sample. It's down to 1.012. I had it fermenting at about 64 (bucket temp). I just raised it to 70 t get it to finish up. It' smells great, hazy, a big but not boozy, quit bitter. Hop flavor reflects the blend that I used which I clouded citra, Amarillo, centennial, and calypso (a bit of the juicy fruit).

Lets see where this goes...

Any update on this with WLP090? I have some I could use or else I'd have to buy WLP007. Which would you recommend?

 

[scottland]

Check my blog in my signature, it's like 1 or two posts down. It turns out fantastic with American yeast. WLp007 gets it a little closer, but 090 I think makes a better beer.

Try it with 090, you won't be disappointed.

 

[mtnagel]

Awesome! I was open to buying a new strain, but I love using what I already have on hand. Thanks!

 

[mtnagel]

Glad you beer was a hit at your wedding. Congrats!

I think the only hops I didn't see at my LHBS were Calypso and Delta (or your sub, Belma). Any subs I can use if I can't get those?

And I just finished reading the comments and I see you say you don't think the wort hops really did anything, so could I omit them or put in some left over hops I have? I have about a half pound of centennial I could use (don't really want to "waste" those, but I got them cheaper by buying a pound) and some random < 1 oz packets. I'm not opposed to buying more, but that's ~$7 in hop in the wort which I'd rather not waste money on if I don't half to.

 

[itsratso]

i haven't had all the top IIPA's but i think the best beer i have ever had was enjoy. i am going freaking crazy that they didn't put it out in chicago this time around (why would you want to put out a beer in the SECOND BIGGEST CITY IN AMERICA???). so glad you put out this recipe, it's coming very soon on my list of to do's.

 

[m3n00b]

This is next on my list

 

[scottland]

Centennial would be fine to sub for Belma. Just something fruity. The only hops you really can't sub are galaxy and Nelson Sauvin.

 

[mtnagel]

Thanks for the info.

I got the Galaxy and Nelson at my LHBS. I was there for other stuff and they had them so I bought them and will probably make the Enjoy in a month or so.

 

[mtnagel]

I start with R/O. I then add gypsum and calcium chloride, and finally use some acid malt to get the pH where it needs to be.

At the end of the day my water is what you would consider middle of the road. I only start with RO because our water here in Phoneix is hard enough to walk on most of the year.

Can you post what your resulting water profile is for this?

 

[m3n00b]

I got all of my ingredients. They were out of galaxy and belma though. Still should be good

 

[m3n00b]

Thoughts on doing an extract with no specialty grains? I've got some extra pale lme that is really fermentable. I'm worried about head retention.

Brewed this past weekend, 1/2 oz Fuggle and 1/2 oz Cascade to sub for the Delma... the crazy thing is, my LHBS was out of Centennial & Simcoe... luckily I had just enough in my freezer to get all the hops right minus the Delma. Will sample and post back after 12/7 (three weeks bottle conditioned).

 

[mtnagel]

Are you talking about Listermann's? I was hoping to brew this in a month or so. I have the centennial and I bought the galaxy and nelson when I saw it there last time I was there because I knew I was brewing this soon. I can't remember if I have enough simcoe though.

Yeah, though that was 10/19, I would hope they've since gotten more Simcoe and Centennial, since i thought they were fairly common. Just a hint, if you're on Facebook send Listermann's a message if you're looking for a particular hop; I asked them prior to going down on the 19th if they had galaxy and they replied back within an hour confirming they did. When i got there they had what appeared to be 100 oz, lol.
