Stone Ruination IPA

[BJCPeter]

I didnt get his name but someone was asking about this recipe.
This is a modified version from a BYO article

( 5 gal. extract w grains)
6.6 lbs pale malt extract.
2 lbs dried Pale malt extract.
1 lb 2 row malt briess
1 lb crystal 15
116.8 IBU  Magnum @ 60 min 2. oz of 14 % alpha acids
21.3  IBU  Centennial 1. oz   @ 30 min
2 oz Centennial last 5 min
Make starter of WL 007 (said to be closest to house strain)
When done dry hop 2 oz centennial

Seep crushed grains in 3 gal water @ 149 for 30 min.. add liquid extract , bring to boil.. add 60 min hops.
 Remove from heat so you dont  burn the extract. Brew as usual.. add whirlfloc last 15 min.
Cool wort  pitch yeast and ferment @ 67 /68 deg . Once fermentation starts to slow let temp rise to 70 to help complete fermentation.  Dry hop for 3 to 5 days going by taste.  All grain replace extract with 14.6 lbs 2 row.. mash @ 149 .. boil 90 min.. adding hops as needed..

Additional notes.....
You might consider depending on your water profile adding some gypsum to harden it up. Mitch Steel talks about this on the  Can You Brew It podcast.
Think of this as a starting point. Adjust as needed to suit your brew system. Pitch plenty of healthy yeast and make sure you start on the cool side.. If you pitch above 67 deg you will develop hot alcohols . never a good thing unless you like headache.   
 Extract you should hit your target gravity.. If all grain remember to adjust or compensate.
When using high alpha hops you have to be closer on your measurements. 
Hope this helps.

Not too bad of a brew day. Was off FG by about 2 plato but besides that went smooth.

Beer smells great. So much hops.

[Jason the Brewer]

My bathroom smells of hops and it is awesome.

I'm transferring it into a secondary on Friday, as well as pulling out the hop bag.

[Jason the Brewer]

Gelatin dropped, will keg on friday.

I finally got my city's water report so next time I am going to make the water a little harder.

[Brickhouse]

Please post your city's water specs.  Someone may be looking for it.

[Jason the Brewer]

Will do.

I believe it includes Modesto, Waterford, and a few other areas. I found a waterford only one online but it didn't include very much, just toxic stuff.

[Jason the Brewer]

Kegged.

Need harder water next time for sure. The nose isn't popping like it should.
