Notes

Well this is a 'user upper' recipe seeing as I never got to repeat my original lovely tasting IPA thanks to a lack of ingredients/delivery.

  1. Ferment out (check SG after a week)
  2. Add 200g dry hop pellets
  3. Leave for 10 days
  4. Chill to 5°C for two days
  5. Bottle

    This is the plan anyway.....
