Recipe: Hopped Out IPA...

350gms worth of hops! That's one hoppy beer! w00t

 

A very interesting mix of hops too. Some English' date=' some American, some NZ. . .

 

I hope it all comes together for a terrific beer!

 

Cheers & good brewing,

I noted Bridge Road use EKG a fair bit with the newer hops, hence the purchase of that.

Have not drunk something brewed with it in that way yet but I am confident it will be good.

Yeah the EKG has some nice aromas.

 

I'm led to believe EKG was (at one point) the bittering hop for Little Creatures Pale Ale/Rogers. unsure

A friend brewed an EKG / Galaxy IPA which he said was fantastic. Not a combination I would have come up with, but looks like the EKG / fruity new world hop combo can work great!

 

Ben10, did you just throw in the 40g EKG @FWH, or the whole 200g hop bill? If just the EKG I reckon it should still be alright, the rye and wheat malt will help to reign in the extra bitterness with a bit of body.

 

Cheers,

 

John

I threw in 100g FWH. 20g of each hop.

biggrin some decent AA% ones in there too ... good way to test IBU saturation theories. Be interested to see how it turns out! You could always add enough DME / LME to bring it up to say an 1.100+ OG and turn it into a hoppy Barleywine to bring it somewhat back into balance.

Brew day! happy

 

A beer for my father. Except for a bit of dried wheat malt, it is the Coopers DIY recipe: Nelson's Light.

 

Light Dry Malt Extract 1.35kg

Wheat Dry Malt 150gms

CaraMunich III 250gms

Centennial 25gms @ 30mins

Nelson Sauvin 20gms (steeped)

Nelson Sauvin 25gms dry hopped

Coopers kit yeast

Brewed to 21 litres

 

I had planned to make a midstrength beer using the new Thomas Coopers Golden Crown Lager kit, but I already had all the ingredients on hand for the Nelson's Light, so thought I'd save a few bucks this week. wink

 

My Saison is down another 10-12 points since pitching the Belle Saison, but does seem a bit sluggish. The taste is certainly there though.

 

Cheers & good brewing,

 

Lusty.

Thought I'd have a go at an ESB/English Pale Ale with a Kiwi twist:

 

A 24 litre partial mash based on a Coopers Draught can:

 

1 x Coopers OS Draught

2kg Maris Otter (46%)

300g Gladfields Biscuit Malt (6.9%)

300g Gladfields Med. Crystal Malt (6.9%)

50g Caraaroma (1.1%)

20g NZ Fuggles (20 min)

20g NZ Fuggles (flameout steep 15min)

and then ...

20g NZ Goldings (dry)

 

Will use kit yeast for this one.

 

Target IBU=30.5. Mashed at 66-67ºC, 60 mins. OG=1.042

Another APA in the kettle today. Having a double brew weekend. I feel like a hit of Citra and Galaxy.

The zero minute steep/whirlpool additions will follow up the 15 min steep flameout additions for a 15 min steep prior to chilling. Copying Ben10s recent IPA procedure in that respect. Thought I'd give that a whirl Ben.

Hi Ben.

Ben10' date=' did you just throw in the 40g EKG @FWH, or the whole 200g hop bill? [/quote']

 

I threw in 100g FWH. 20g of each hop.

 

I'll have to make the beer again but will still ferment it.

Sorry I missed this one. innocent

 

If it ever happens again, just quickly crunch some numbers & shorten the boil. wink

 

That's unless you fear the never sited/often spoken about DMS issue. whistling

 

Cheers,

 

Lusty.
