For the hops, there is no option for 'dried cones', so what I have done is select pellets, but decrease the utilisation. Therefore, the weight it shows should be correct for your dried hops. To calculate the utilisation I consider that one needs roughly 5 times more wet hops compared to pellets. Then I also note that after drying your 1kg of wet hops came to ~300g of dried hops. Therefore, your utilisation is 1 / 5 * 1000 / 300 ~ 66%.

Note the LME is split in an early and late addition. Sugar is late addition. Late addition should go in with roughly 10 mins left in boil.

If you don't have any yeast nutrient or irish moss on hand, don't worry too much, they can be omitted.

Ferment is the key for this bad boy. You wanna start it around 20C, then let it naturally increase temp while its fermenting. Try and put somewhere in the house where it will stay relatively warm, and maybe wrap it in a blanket. It will probably get down to about 1.010 within the first week, then it should slowly make it's way down to ~1.005 over the next couple of weeks. Just be patient. Maybe don't chuck your tilt in this batch if you want it for others in the meantime.

I chose a dry yeast cos it's easier. I haven't used it before, but its meant to be pretty damn good. I'd rehydrate it before pitching if you can be bothered. These instructions are pretty good: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/how-to-brew/rehydrating-dry-yeast/. If you wanted to go liquid, I'd suggest Wyeast 3711 (French Saison).
