Notes: This is a transcript from Kristen England's blogpost.

Another very short explanation. What the Youngers logs have in extraordinary details for their brewing, all of the beers are very very simple. So, on to this awesome double IPA thing. A wee heavy little beastie indeed!

Ingredients
Grist – I haven’t used Golden Promise in quite a long time so I decided it was about time. You can absolutely use Maris Otter or really any other wonderful Englishy malt you’d like. I have come to really like two very different types of pale malts. My very favorite is the MFB pale malt. I’ve found that if you had to have one single malt to do really absolutely anything in the realm of beer, this would be more than adequate. Bitter, IPA, Pils, etc. On the other end of the spectrum, my other favorite malt for different reasons (mostly cost and its ability to play second fiddle extremely well) is Great Western pale malt. You’ll find a massive amount of American breweries use it for everything. I think it is very nice and does a great job, just not as good at everything that the MFB pale malt.

Hops – This beer, as can be seen, is about 3:1 or 4:1 Czech: English hops. The English ones can really be anything but I’d stay with a low alpha variety for the amount of greenery you need to add in. As for the Czech, I used 100% Saaz. Czech Saaz at that. Pivní Filosof, Evan Rail, Alistair Reece and I had a great conversation just a week or so ago about the ability to make a big hoppy beer using 100% Czech Saaz. This is pretty much that beer. The thought is/was that one can’t do it. You just can’t get that bitterness. This, is entirely untrue. What you will find is that the bitterness is very different. Its much less harsh. Additionally, I find the aroma is much much higher on this beer (all low AA% hop IPAs even) simply due to the fact of the vast amount of hop that goes in. More essential oils and such. If you need another reason to make this beer, do so for that fact. A big, crisp, dry IPA thingy with a butte tonne of low alpha hops.

Yeast – I really like the dry Nottingham for this beer. It dries out extremely well. Finishes quick. Its cheap! That being said, use what you like. A yeast cake would be good for those of you that don’t do starters well. Its very important you get enough yeast into this bugger to dry it out.

Notes: BREW NOTES
First brewed 30/08/2015. Want to try push mash temp up and see whether improves mash efficiency.

MASH NOTES.
Only getting around 60-63% efficiency. Have tried all manner of things to bump up. Looked through old notes and remembered that even with a pre Tun heat up, I still need an extra 2 deg C on top of brewers friend calcs. Last 3 brews all around 64-65 deg C mash temp on purpose.(wanted drier beers then but efficiency suffered) This time have bumped up mash temp extra 2 deg aiming for 67-68 deg C over 90 mins. Extra 2 deg C last thing to test before changing to smaller esky cooler Tun.
Ambient temp 18 deg C (end of winter) 30/08/2015
I have tun insulated with cardboard and wrapped in blanket.
Single Infusion.
Grain temp 13 deg C
2.5 L/1kg grain
Strike (brewers Friend) 21L @ 77deg C.
Actual Strike 79.5 Deg C. Adjust for your equipment.
After 30 mins sitting on 67-68 Deg C. Stirred
After 60 mins sitting on 66 Deg C. Added 2L boiling water. No noticeable temp changed.
After 90 mins finished at
Mash Out
Raised temp to 68-69 deg C stir and mash for 10 more minutes = 4 liters @ boiling (adjust for your equipment)
Took first running's and Re-circ'd added
12 litres @ boiling to reach 77 deg C sacc
Lauter to desired wort volume (if needed)
34 L in brew pot (adjust for your equipment) this is a 25L batch. See above.
Pre Boil OG 10.30

BOIL NOTES
See hop schedule above. Adjust AA for IBU's in your area.
90 min boil
Whirl-flock 10 min to go
Add Immersion chiller 10 min to go
Cool to desired ferm temp

FERM NOTES
Nottingham yeast (Danstar) re-hydration 1.064 slightly high for 1 packet. I re-hydrated only.
Original Gravity 1.076 way higher but 22L
Final Gravity
ABV %

After BREW Notes
Mash temp rise to 68deg C haven't worked. Hit 1.076 but 22L. This is 63% which is my standard efficiency. I added 2L of fresh water to bring it down to 1.070 may add another 1L to make 1.067. Brewer's Friend calcs at 63% efficiency. Had my usual 34 liter to start boil. Left a bit more in pot so not as much trube went in, but still 6L off. Not sure why the extra boil off today.
The extra 2L of water isn't something I like to do, but ABV would be too high for 1 packet of dry yeast. Extra water will bring with some oxygen to aid yeast. Should it attenuate as per all my other brews 80%+ 1.010 i'll end up with an imperial-ish 7.8% 1.012 finish 7.6% down side is I wanted a hoppy plain-ish IPA lucky the extra IBU's are in it as it will still be a balanced beer with a 1.012+ finish.

FG 1.016 added extra water.ABV 6.69%
