Notes

If doing IPA similar to here: http://scottjanish.com/rva-manchester-ale-vs-london-ale-iii-neipas/

The bittering addition in his hop schedule is about 45-50 IBUs, this equates to 4-5mL of hopshot extract. Will use all 3mL of what I have, equates to about 30 IBUs.

Mill wheat separately from 2 Row, and mill the wheat at least twice.

Filter wort after boil to separate out hops.

Do dry hop in secondary.

Original from here:http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=568046&page=14

In case anyone is interested - this is the blonde ale I make:
OG = 1.042

45% 2 row
45% golden promise
2.5% each of Wheat, honey malt, cara 20 and flaked barley

Hops = 1oz. of liberty at 30 minutes, 1 oz. liberty at 5 minutes

PH = 5.35

Ca = 65
Sulfate = 75
Chloride = 65

I go 75% RO, 25 % Hard tap water. Lactic acid to hit 5.35-5.40

Mash = 152

** Something like Centennial Blonde recipe would be a great one too probably.

Just looking for a light, easy drinking beer that takes no dry hop and makes a nice pile of clean yeast for harvesting. People drink the hell out of this beer though - I can never keep it on tap. I like it myself, wife likes it and guests tend to demolish it.
