First of many I hope... :)

What size batch is it? 2.5Kg of DME, so... 15L? Consider upping the dry hop - IPAs are the hop aroma round house kick of beers. Most of my IPAs get dry hopped at 4g/L, the lucky ones get up to 8.

If you've got some spare simcoe, that would go really nicely with the cascade as a dry hop. :icon_drool2:

Yeh it's 19L. Good guess! I recently got the beer smith app and have been playing around with that for quantities and such. My first time using grain, I've been exclusively an extract in a can kinda guy (coz I'm a bit lazy!).

The IBUs are calculated to be 44.2 and EBC 19.2. Est ABV 4.8%.

Dya reckon chuck the same amount of simcoe and cascade for the dry hop?

That's going to be a decently bitter IPA flave , have you calculated the ibu yet ?

I'm thinking it maybe just as bitter as the IIPA brewing atm , if it's only 15 liters it's defiantly going to be just as bitter if not more bitter

Kind of makes me thirsty looking at your recipe

Edit : 30 grams of chinook at 60mins comes up around 55 ibu by itself in brewmate , think it maybe higher then what you have worked out

Using the formula ibu=[weight in mg x aa x hop utilization] / volume in liters ...it works out to be 51 ibu for just your 60 minute addition

amber
pride of ringwood @ 60 to 30 ibu
WLP013

get in my mouth.

my first brew since moving. finally.

ps. moving is the biggest pain in the ass in the history of life.
 
I am fermenting this now.

BIAB

90% M/O
5% Simpson Dark Crystal
5% Raw Sugar (@ 15 mins to go).

EKG to ~14IBU @ 60 mins
EKG in Cubes No Chill to ~12 IBU

OG ~1.050 target OG Actual 1.056

Currently fermenting
Nottingham in One batch, Thames Valley in the Other.

ABV est 5.6-5.8% (bit high, but.....)

Fridge smells AWESOME!!

Cheers,
D80
 
Brett IPA

93.5% gladfield pils
6.5% flaked triticale

Willamette @ 60
Cascade flowers @ flameout @80c
Cascade flowers dry hopped a week before bottling

Wyeast 3031 saison Brett blend

1058
34 Ibu

Mashing high to give Brett something to chew on. Will probably leave it for 8-10 weeks before bottling.

Thinking it might be more bitter then that , I've been wrong many times before but haha
Fair enough! [emoji38] like I said first time using the software hoping it doesn't let me down but if it does it's just an excuse to brew another batch!

"Yeh this one isn't quite right luv, gonna have to brew another version" *brews 3 different beers that aren't IPAs*
 
American IPA

OG 1063
FG 1013
ABV 6.5%
IBU 72
EBC 12
Vol 20L
Eff 70%

45% Maris Otter
45% Pilsner
4% Light Crystal (35L)
6% Dextrose

Mashed @ 66c/60m

90min Boil

Magnum @ 60m = 34ibu

Amarillo / Chinook / Citra @ 15m, 5m & WP for 10mins

Fermented @ 18c with BRY97 - 2 packets rehydrtaed.

Dry Hopped - Amarillo / Citra @ 4g/L for 5 days @ 21c

With the 6% sugarz and using Bry97 it may attenuate a little lower than 1.013, likely to get 1010, making it a 7% abv

[SIZE=11pt]I used brewing salts, but they're specific to the water. [/SIZE]
 
How does less than 4 kg of malt get 1.052 gravity ?

18 liters .... not much malt to final volume and awesome efficiency maybe
 
Assorted NZ Pale Ales (different hopping each cube)

40% Pale Malt
40% Pilsner
20% Wheat

Gladfield malts

Ridiculously complex step mash just for S&G (which may get abandoned in the interest of simplicity)
Shooting for very dry but soft flavor/mouthfeel

Magnum to bitter to 10 IBU

Hop bills chosen from:
NZ Cascade
Sticklebract
Motueka
Southern Cross

Idzy and I are using his big system (400l) to pump out 10 cubes for myself and assorted expecting fathers :D. Happy Father's Day br0s!

The mash efficiency was over 90%. I used a thick mash at 63 and pH 5.3 and a thin mash at 70, and then dunk sparged using water at similar pH. As for brewhouse efficiency I used hop sacks and very lightly squeezed on removal all but the last one, which was in wort too cool for that. I filtered rather than whirpooled, so there was very little loss to trub. Some trub (break. and very small hop particles) passed the filter and was part of the 18L pre-fermentation volume.
