Quickie IPA recipe.

Wed Aug 05, 2009 7:38 pm

I'm trying to put together a quickie, hopbursted IPA, based on Jamil's "Secret to big hop flavor" the he mentioned way back in the very first session. http://www.mrmalty.com/late_hopping.htm

Really I want something I can bang out in an hour or two to fill a tap handle during gaps in my regular all-grain schedule. Aside from the hop expense, is there anything that I'm missing? I've never done a 10 minute boil before. Will this end up being a pale, flavorful, balanced IPA, or something less desirable? Am I totally off base? A complete idiot? I'm flying a bit blind here. All input welcome.
Well...most input welcome. :unicornrainbow:

I may have missed something in the article as it is blocked at my work space.
Even though all hop additions are 10 minutes and down, I believe you woud still do a 60 minute boil. Of course being Captain Short Bus, I could be wrong. :?
The hops schedule sounds awesome. I am not too familiar with Aromatic, so I would go with a 1.0 to 1.5 lbs of Crystal 15 to balance it out.
But it sounds great, keep us posted how it comes out.
Cheers.

If you want a really big hop nose in your IPA, I would lose the 4 oz of cascade at the 1 minute mark. I would opt for 3-4 oz of cascade/Columbus, dry hopped with pellets. Do this in the primary after the krausen has follow down. 3-5 days ought to do it. Crash cool it to settle everything out and you're good to go.

No, you're not wrong. DMS doesn't care about the hop schedule and an all grain batch would need a full boil. Extract has already been through a full boil, so it's unnecessary. Back in my extract days, I would utilize the "extract late" method and add 80% of the extract at 10 minutes to avoid malliard reactions and maintain a lighter color.

I had considered that, but for some peverse reason I want to do this with all kettle hops, a 'la Jamil's article.
