I'd go with a decent amount of Citra for an initial bittering charge at FWH/60 mins but then you need to radically increase the amounts and move everything else to 5mins/flameout and whirlpool, go big on the dry hop as well. I just made an all grain DIPA (8.4%) but I think I skimped on the whirlpool and dry hop (in my defence I was also using fresh hops which were hard to gauge their contribution). I'm having to keg-hop this one now as the bitterness is bang on but it's lacking some flavour and aroma which is because I didn't dose it high enough. Aim for around 8-10g/L..

[QUOTE="Schikitar, post: 1533920, member: 70543"] I'd go with a decent amount of Citra for an initial bittering charge at FWH/60 mins but then you need to radically increase the amounts and move everything else to 5mins/flameout and whirlpool, go big on the dry hop as well.
