JUICY WC IPA: Grain To Glass (Strata & El Dorado)
Vložit
- čas přidán 13. 07. 2024
- Hands down the most JUICY IPA i've every made. The perfect hybrid between the things I love most about WC style IPA's(Crisp, dry, drinkable) & the some of the qualities I love about Hazy IPA's(Intense aroma and fruity, delicious flavor) with a dash of dank/pine.

Any specific water adjustments on this...or what kind of starting water did you use?
I am going to brew this recipe shared on Yakima Valley Hops. The Hop Syndicate. I was wandering about water profile. I am going to use RO water.
Sulfate - 150ppm / Chloride - 75ppm / Calcium - 55ppm / Magnesium- 8ppm
I'm gonna brew this today ..I scaled it down for my 35l brewzilla but I'm wondering what to use for water additions or profile ?
Nice! I should for 150 Sulfates & 75 chlorides on my WC IPAS.
I always use RO water so I build up the minerals with Gypsum, Calcium Chloride & epsom salt
Thanks for the video! I found this because im planning a similar beer. Have a question. I was planning to do an equal amount of strata and eldorado in the dry hop. Is there a reason why you are doing twice as much strata? Also I was thinking of trying 85% pale ale malt and 15% munich I. Thoughts?
I used more strata to have that hop come out more in the aroma and flavor, love them both though.
I would dial the Munich back to 5%, for my personal taste buds. That would still add some malt character to the beer and allow the hops to shine. But, I’m a big fan in my West coast IPA’s to let the hops be the stars so I keep my malt simple and if I do add anything other than base malt, I keep it below 10% max.
@@HopKillerBrewery Awesome, thanks for the advice. I will consider doing that.
@@edbercaw5833 let me know what you end up doing and how it turned out!
Hey Bud. Good video, what was your water profile?
Thank you, normally for IPA’s I’ll use a 2:1 sulfates/chloride ratio
Absolutely my favorite style, west coast is the best coast! Curious though, what is your dosage rate of bio fine when you keg per gallon? Cheers!
I’m doing roughly 15mL per 5 gallons!
sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Lincoln Trent Instablaster =)
Sounds like a great beer! How much biofine do you typically use?
I usually use 1oz per 10 gallons. It has worked well for me, the beer is pretty clear now!
Thanks! I have just started experimenting with it and have been kind of guessing and adding a little bit at a time. But it works very well!
Really would like to talk about fermentors and temp control for 10-15 gallon batches !!
Like what options we have for 10-15 gallon batches?
@@HopKillerBrewery yes. And what you’re currently using
In some European countries wc is an abbreviation for toilet (water closet)🙂
This would have been an awkward video if I was in Europe!
Wont adding biofine strip some of the hop flavor and aroma?
It’s debatable I’m pretty sure.
I made a mistake and mashed it at 155. Primary finished at 1.018. How much hop creep did you get? Enough to drop it to at least 1.012?
I think if it finishes a little higher, it shouldn’t affect it too much. Whatever it ends up at, if it’s not to your liking, next time shoot for it to be drier.
Let me know how it comes out.
Regarding the hop creep, if you dry hop warm and on the yeast, it should bring it down some
What were the Dry Hop quantities you used?
4oz Strata & 2oz El Dorado, I did this twice for a total of 8oz Strata & 4oz ED.
Recipe please? Brewfather link if you can. Thanks Hop Killer!
