I have a pound of Michigan Copper hops coming so would really like to make a “copper colored” IPA. Looking at the charts I’m thinking that about SRM 16-18 is what I’m after. Here’s the grain bill I came up with for the beer. Although the amount in the beer is minimal, I am concerned the Blackprinz malt will add a roasty flavor I don’t want. I’ve not had real experience using it so thought I’d throw this out there and see if way off base here. Thanks!
Thanks, I think I’ll sub that in instead. I plan to single hop this with .75 at 60 and then late additions of .5 oz. every 5 minutes from 20 thru FO. Haven’t thought much about a DH but will probably do an oz. at 5 days. Total IBU about 50-55. Thanks again!
The 12 of pale is good… Could even sub Marris Otter
the crystal 120 could go as high as a pound… I’d skip the Mel.
Skip the Flaky oats
Just because… 1/4 up to 1/2 Mid night wheat… ( thats mouth feel, head retention and pH lowering capabilities)
Use like, northern brew hops… an ounce… Bittering
Now I haven’t a clue about copper hops…
Aromatics Find a nice combo for dry hopping to finish… Citra, Cascades… Centennial, Amarillo… And theres more…
