First IPA Attempt

I noticed that about Dex/Malto when playing around in the spreadsheet. Thanks for the explination.

I would definitely go with the dextrose over maltodextrin in this beer. I also don't think 500g dextrose is too much.

An all extract beer (especially a big one) will finish too high for me so I would go with the dextrose to boost OG without increasing the FG. That beer will handle 500g of dextrose easily without producing a thin, cidery beer.

Good Day Gents: doing my first Coopers and its IPA....wish to confirm that you suggest 500g Dextrose to 23L kit?

Hopefully last Revised Recipe, based on a beer I tasted over the weekend with Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. Swapping out the Galaxy for Mosaic and Simcoe. Dropped teh LDME to 1KG, bumped the Dextrose and added the Malto in

Question, would it hurt in throwing the US05 and the Tin yeast in together? I was planning on using US05 either way, but not sure if I'd get any funky flavours using both, or should I use 2 x US05?

One rehydrated US05 could handle that OG

I'd throw both in, you won't get any funky flavours. They're similar strains of yeast.
