In this episode of Can You Brew It, Jamil and Tasty attempt to clone Citra Double IPA from Kern River Brewing Company in Kernville, CA. This wonderful craft beer took gold at the Great American Beer Festival in 2011 and has racked up many other awards as one of the best double IPA’s on earth. Tune in and find out if Tasty was able to homebrew this hop monster of a beer.

Needs a 2L Starter using 200g of DME

https://shop.theelectricbrewery.com/pages/kern-river-citra-double-ipa

add 500mg potassium metabisulphite to 20 gallons water to remove chlorine / chloramine (if required).
Water treated with brewing salts to our Hoppy flavour profile: Ca=110, Mg=18, Na=16, Cl=50, SO4=275 (Basically Randy Mosher's ideal Pale Ale numbers with slightly less Sulphate). For complete details on how to adjust your water, refer to our step by step Water Adjustment guide.
1.25 qt/lb mash thickness.
Single infusion mash at 148F for 120 mins.
Raise to 168F mashout temperature and hold for 10 mins.
~90 min fly sparge with ~5.6-5.8 pH water (measured at mash temperature). Collect 13.9 gallons.
Milwaukee MW102 pH meter
MORE INFOBoil for 60 minutes, adding Whirlfloc and hops per schedule.
After boil steep / whirlpool for 20 minutes with the lid on. (No need to stir, steeping is fine. Hop oil extraction is a function of contact time and temperature, not motion).
With the lid still on, cool the wort quickly to 67F (we use a one-pass convoluted counterflow chiller to quickly lock in hop flavour and aroma) and transfer to fermenter.
Aerate well. Pure oxygen from a tank may be used at a rate of 1 litre per minute for 120 seconds per 5 gallons.
Pitch yeast and ferment at 67F (wort temperature). We use modified stainless fermenting buckets in wine fridges.
Due to the high hopping rates and quadruple dry hopping the beer is very susceptible to oxidation. You have to be very careful to minimize all exposure to oxygen in order to preserve the hop flavours and aromas. Even hops themselves can have oxygen caught in their anatomy. Some hints:
If a vessel needs to be opened, purge the headspace with CO2 before closing.
Before adding hops to beer, place them in a tall container and flush with CO2.
Flush target vessels with CO2 before transferring beer. If hops are to be added at the same time (i.e. dry hop #2), add them to the vessel first.
Don't be stingy with CO2! CO2 is cheap. To flush vessels, growlers, kegs we have a separate bare gas line off one of our manifolds with its own shutoff.
Add dry hops #1 once fermentation is nearing completion (i.e. 5 points from terminal gravity) and raise the temperature to 70-72F. We simply turn off the fermenting fridges and allow the beer to naturally rise to room temperature. Steep dry hops #1 for 3 days while fermentation finishes. Assume fermentation is done if the gravity does not change over ~3 days.
Add dry hops #2 to brite tank (we use 5 gallon glass carboys), purge with CO2 to avoid oxygen pickup, then carefully rack in the beer on top of the hops. Allow to steep for 3 days at 70-72F room temperature, gently swirling a few times a day. We do not recommend using hop sacks or other containers as you'll get the best flavour extraction from the hops if you let them roam free. For beers such as this that require multiple dry hop additions, some will dry hop in kegs using stainless steel dry hoppers, tying a piece of unflavoured / unwaxed dental floss to the lid to make it easy to remove (the floss is thin and doesn't impede the seal between the keg and keg lid). We don't recommend this approach as we find that the hops tend to clump together which in turn reduces oil extraction, requiring far too many hops to be used (and more beer lost to absorption).
After 3 days in the brite tank add dry hops #3. Leave previous hops in. Swirl gently a few times a day.
After 6 days in the brite tank add dry hops #4. Leave previous hops in. Swirl gently a few times a day.
After 9 days in the brite tank package as you would normally. We rack to kegs that have first been purged with CO2, and then carbonate on the low side (around 2 volumes of CO2) to minimize carbonic bite and let the hop and malt flavours shine through. We chill the kegs to near freezing while carbonating at the same time in a 6-keg conditioning fridge. After ~1-2 weeks at serving pressure the kegs will be carbonated and ready to serve. Like all hop forward beers this Double IPA is best consumed fresh so feel free to raise the CO2 pressure temporarily to 30-40 PSI to carbonate fast over a 24 period, and then turn back down to serving pressure. Some hop bits will have invariably made their way into the keg during transfer so we use a Hop Stopper Keg Edition filter to ensure that hops do not clog the dip tube and/or end up in the glass. Force carbonating at high pressure and using a Hop Stopper filter allows us to serve this beer 24 hours after kegging. There's no need to wait a few days for any hop bits that made their way into the keg to first settle out.
We do not recommend using finings such as unflavoured gelatin as it may "round off" hop flavours / aromas.

Notes: Yeast
Safale S-04 English Ale. No need to aerate with the dry yeast. FG usually comes in around 1.014, but has ranged from 1.013 to 1.018 over the years (not always with the current yeast).
Used Safale US-05 for JUICY 16.

Malt
Use a mix of pale ale malt, munich malt and vienna malt. No acid malt. Leave it out, but be ready to adjust if pH ends up too high.
Try Golden Promise next time! Just to see if you like it. I used the local craft malt for JUICY 16.

Small amounts of any of the following should also be included:
Rye malt: 250g
Cara-rye: I've tried it once but I'm still not sure what it gives to the brew. However there 100g in FOOL 13 so I'm keeping it that way.
Smoked malt: has become essential! Minimum 100g. Has gradually crept to 250g. Seems about right.

Mash

Dough in when HLT = 170F, expect to hit about 155F or so, let stand for an hour, dropping gradually, then conduct normal mash-out.

====
Hops

BF reported values:
IBU: 118
AAU: 44 [ounces * AA%, so this is 4 ounces @ 11 AA for 60 min]

Here's my advice from the 2019 Planner: "Generally boil first hop for about 70 minutes, and drop in about 20 aa pts worth of something for 30 minutes. No finishing hop. Dry hop at least an ounce of something nice per keg. Don’t leave it in contact with the beer for more than a week."

The Challenger/Sovereign hops were great. I've used various hops but I'm looking for an English-feeling ale, so it makes sense to use traddish English hops.

Notes: Started with the Can You Brew It recipe for Union Jack: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=188929

Supposedly, Double Jack is at least the same grain bill but with a higher gravity.

They also suggested Cara Stan as a substitute for Cara Malt.

The hop schedule is taken/adapted from: http://www.bertusbrewery.com/2012/11/ipa-clone-series-firestone-walker.html I actually made this recipe but found that I likely messed up by switching the yeast to US-04. It wasn't good, but the guy who provided that recipe was so thrilled with his result, I thought it was worth keeping.

My biggest complaint having made that beer was that the malt flavor wasn't right (not sweet enough) and that the aroma had a lot of yeast quality I wasn't expecting. Both can be corrected by just using WLP002. But I do like the idea of tweaking the malt bill a bit as well.

Notes: Mix all of the crushed grains with 4.75 gallons (18 L) of 173°F (78 °C) water to stabilize at 157ºF (69 ºC) for 90 minutes. Slowly sparge with 175 ºF (79 ºC) water. Collect approximately 6.5 gallons (23 L) of wort runoff to boil for 90 minutes.

Mash keeping the tempature as close to 157 degrees as possible.

Add the Cascade hops 1/2 oz when it reaches a boil and another 1/2 oz one hour later. Use pellet hops. If you use whole leaf, you will need to use more. Add 1 tsp Irish Moss 15 minutes before the end of the boil. Drop to 69 degrees as quickly as possible after the boil and pitch the yeast
