Hi guys,
Just planning out a near future brew in which I'm planning on using a TC's IPA kit as base. Was after some thoughts / advise on the additional hops I'm planning on using as I don't have a ton of experience yet with hop combinations.
I haven't used this kit before but I'm working on the assumption that it will pretty much have the bittering and some of the hop flavour I need, but not a great deal in the way of aroma??
I've currently got some leftover Cascade hop pallets in the freezer (approx 30g) which I'm planning on using up, and I was wondering what other late hop additions I can pair with Cascade which will go well and produce something along the lines of a big American IPA. At this stage I've selected Amarillo and only boil for a max of 15 mins, something like this:
Amarillo 40G @ 15mins
Cascade 15g @ 10mins
Amarillo / Cascade 15g of each Dry hopped
Just wondring what peoples experience pairing these two hops in late additions, or is there a hop that goes better with Cascade that I should be looking for?
Thanks.
