Hi guys, I put a brew down a few days ago and it's fermenting nicely.
I have an extra 100g of Kohatu, and 15g of Centennial left over. Do you guys think I should up the dry hop? From what I've read Kohatu is fairly mild. This is my first recipe from scratch. I normally just copy recipes I find online and maybe tweak the odd thing here and there so hopefully it turns out alright.
