Hey there. Brewed an IPA this weekend that went very smooth. I've brewed 6-7 batches but still feel like a beginner when it comes to recipe details. Wondering if this thing is going to be too hoppy. Brewtoad has it at 86 IBU and wondering if there is anything to do after fermentation? No big deal... still looking forward to trying it and seeing what needs to happen next time, but just thought I'd get thoughts on this and if any opinions on things to do before bottling. I do like hoppy IPAs, but wondering if my malt bill was too low. Thoughts?
