12.5 oz. in whirlpool


This was for 11 gallons though..

I recently read somewhere that if you introduce too many late addition hops, you get too much of a grassy/muddled flavor.


In my experience, a large variety of hops in late additions can give you an indistinguishable/muddled hop profile more so than the actual amount (weight) of hop used.

My last IPA I used three citrus/tropical hops in the WP/DH and it was a one dimensional fruit bomb, which was expected.

The DIPA I brewed for Brew at the Zoo I used 5 varieties at WP/DH and while it's extremely hoppy, it's difficult to pick out a dominate characteristic.

Ah, true. My numbers aren't so far off as before. Still got me by 3 oz. But the dry hop amounts stay the same, for his bill.

So it looks more like a 1.5 to 1 ratio of whirlpool to dry hop.

I feel like this guy lives in my brain. I've often had most of these questions.
