    Vic Secret, Falconers + Chinook = Good / bad idea?

    You mean the one with the Chinook all in @ 30, and split the vic and falconers between the late addition and the dry hop? Thinking about it would give a pinny base, with grapefruit overtones and medium gf / pine aroma.

    Vic Secret, Falconers + Chinook = Good / bad idea?

    Yep. Foil sealed and gel cooled in transit all the way from FNQ brew shop... I was using the prepacked 15g tea bags before this and thought 20g would be plenty!! Then I began boiling.... Im guessing get the flavours I like and then begin the bulk purchases... Sugers too are going to be cheaper...

    So the 30mins should render out most of its flavour then? Dr Smurto stated Vic had lots of grapfruit too... Maybe just make it, see what happens, get drunk and adjust as needed! LOL

    I also have 20g packs of Centennial and Citra tucked away too... Damm this HB stuff, too many variables, not enough time to drink it all! Based on that, sub out the Vic for the Citra and keep it for another day, possible order another 50 / 100g to use it as a single hop ;-)

    Hrmm, so dump the chinook in @ 30 for bitterness and make the Vic Secret and Falconers in later then? Eg : Chinook 20g @ 30mins Vic Secret 10g @ 5min Falconers Flight 10g @ 5min Vic / Falconer 10g each dry hop 3/4 days before bottle Should give approx 30 ish IBU using Thomas Cooper Lager...

    What's the deal with the timestamps on posts being AM and the quotes being the correct PM time? Or have I potted one too many brews tonight?

    Vic Secret, Falconers + Chinook = Good / bad idea?

    I know, but I bumped em to 20 to get extra bitterness as I was using the Brewtoad recipe maker and it had a sliding scale : I adjust the hops times up until it changed from sweet -> blanced. And the extra 5 mins was from accidentally dropping the sieve into the FV and having to decant, wash and...

    Vic Secret, Falconers + Chinook = Good / bad idea?

    No worries, I was hoping for someone who had tried them or reports on grassiness etc. I do have a batch with the JSPA schedule someone posted about ready to bottle. It was Amarillo, Cascade and Nelson Sauvin 10g @ 20min, 5g @ 12min and 5g @ 5mins.... but the amount of time I fluffed around...

    Vic Secret, Falconers + Chinook = Good / bad idea?

    Afternoon all, I have 20g's of Vic Secret, Chinook and Falconers Flight in the freezer and was wondering if they would work together. I know the Falconers flight is a blend of citra, galaxy and others and chinook / vic secret are similar. The only thing would be the timing as Vic secret...
