I tried a Founders Centennial IPA from a can after a service job at the local Pub, it motivated me to brew a batch the same week. Will be in the keg this weekend, samples are as good as I have done.brzt6060 said:Hop Hog is good but if you want the same but better try and find founders all day session IPA.
Glad the beer is drinkable... I just want to check and see as you said it was really sweet that you did have a stable gravity for 3 days before botterlig didn't you? Don't want any bottle bombs.
Hey Paulyman, I just put your hop bill into Brewmate and it came up with an IBU of 32. I'm beginning to think Brewmate might be a little out.paulyman said:I put the second batch down yesterday. Had to make some changes as craft brewer were out of magnum when I ordered.
Not too different to Natsta's recipe.
Went with:
2.5 kg LDME
450 g medium Crystal
300 g caramunich 2
30 g roasted barley
100 g dextrose (to get to 5% ABV)
10 g Simcoe @ 20
25 g Columbus @ 20
10 g Simcoe @ 5
5 g Columbus @ 5
25 g Simcoe @ 0
15 g Columbus @ 0
Made up to 23 L @ 18 degrees.
US05 pitched and fermenting at 18 degrees.
SG 1048 expecting FG of 1012 and ABV of 5.1%. Ian's spreadsheet predicts an EBC of 29 and IBU of 41.
Will dry hop on day 8 or there abouts depending on how fermentation goes.
