I am experimenting with a Red Ale recipe. The original recipe calls for 1.5 oz chinook at 60 min and 2 oz cascade at 2 min. I brew in an AIOB with an IC and I can chill the wort to 110 deg within 8-10 minutes. I prefer a malty... ish flavor and this recipe is a pinch too bitter, imo. The finish is lacking in hops flavor and what flavor I do get is pretty one dimensional with very little aroma. I carb with DME and bottle age 2-3 weeks. I would like to change the hops addition to the following... 1 oz chinook @ 45min, 2 oz cascade at 20 min, and 1 oz mosaic at 15 min with a dry hop addition of 1 oz mosaic at SG 1.020... I am trying to achieve a multi dimensional hops finish while maintaining a malty brew. What do you think??? Your wisdom is much appreciated.
