This is a JUICY HAZY IPA that uses a new yeast strain from Imperial Yeast called "Capri". After about 1-2 weeks below 38°F/3°C, the clarity becomes bright with minimal haziness.
SPECIFICATIONS
The grain and hop amounts will vary depending on your batch size. I recommend using BeerSmith for scaling, calculating, and planning beer recipes.
*Note that hop bitterness does not scale linearly.

RECIPE
GRAIN | % OF TOTAL BILL |
2-row | 86% |
Maris Otter | 14% |
HOPS | AMOUNT | SCHEDULE |
Cascade | 13 IBU | Boil for 60 mins |
Citra | 15 IBU | Boil for last 30 mins |
Mosaic | 7 IBU | Boil for last 30 mins |
Citra (LupoMax) | 6 IBU | Whirlpool for 15 mins at 190°F/88°C |
Cascade (LupoMax) | 5 IBU | Whirlpool for 15 mins at 190°F/88°C |
