Hi all, I've recently brewed myself a simple SMaSH just using marris otter, simcoe and some dry hopped cascade (after 5 days). When I tried it prior to bottling it tasted great (much better than the kits i had done!) so am now thinking about experimenting with the recipe...
I am really into the "juicier" NEIPA style beers, not necessarily the high ABV ones though. I've got some mosaic, idaho 7, simcoe and cascade hops and just wondering if I can adapt my original recipe and add the mosaic and/or idaho 7 to make it more like a NEIPA (as you can tell I am a complete beginner at the AG so any tips welcome!). For what it's worth I really like the tiny rebel bang bang NEIPA which is simcoe/idaho 7 hopped. My first AG brew was probably a bit "thin" from a texture perspective and really like the thicker texture of a NEIPA if that makes sense
I'm also wondering how much hops to add? My previous recipe was 50g simcoe during late boil and 15g dry hopped cascade (for a 10L batch). My new batch is going to be 23L so I was thinking of just scaling up the quantities but then also adding a TBD amount of mosaic and/or idaho 7
Any tips/comments would be much appreciated
Cheers
Tom
