Notes

From (Andy Mitchell @ NB)

Bittering: Nugget (very very small amount)
Whirlpool: 50% Crystal, 25% Azzaca, 25% Centennial…total >90% of the hops used in the boil
Dry Hop: Simcoe, Galaxy, Mandarina Bavaria, Cascade, Citra, Chinook, tangerine peel

That dry hop is crazy, the largest portions are Cascade and Citra

If it were me, I would split the late kettle hop addition between a 10 min addition and a flameout / whirlpool addition. I think that would replicate what we do better because of how our process works. Even though we use the peel in dry hop (it’s a powder) you may have better luck using it at flameout if it’s fresh zest…or maybe both dry hop and flame out.
