I'm looking to brew a version of a Chinook APA/IPA that seems to be popular at NB.
I'm trying to determine what's the best choice of grains to use. Would it be best to go with 2Row or use a mix of 2 Row and Pilsner or even MO? Would Golden Promise be a good choice to use as a compliment?
Here's what I have come up with:
5.75 gal to fermenter
OG: 1.055-1.060
FG: 1.010-1.012
IBU: 65
SRM: 7.5-8
ABV: 6
80% 2Row
8% Munich 10L
8% C20 or a combination of C20 & C40 (target SRM is 7.5-8)
4% Carapils
**Not set on the above. Would going 50/50 2Row & MO work better and eliminating Munich or leave Munich in?
HOPS:
1 oz Chinook added at beginning of mash
.75 oz Chinook @ 45
1 oz Chinook @ 15
1 oz Chinook @ 0
1 oz Chinook & 1 oz Amarillo DH for 5 days. Not sure if 2 oz DH will be sufficient.
yeast: Notty, US05 or S04
Thoughts/critique appreciated.
