FLIPA-Florida IPA

FLIPA-Florida IPA

Imperial IPA • All Grain • 5.5 gal

Iflingpoo

60 minute boil. follow hop schedule to keep more aroma but still hit your IBU's. Ferment cool at 62 degrees till gravity hits 1.020. Move to secondary and add fresh cut eastern red cedar (type of Juniper)or humidor cedar to secondary for 4-7 days and rise temperature to 72 to let yeast wrap up rest of sugars. Last batch got to 1.013. I have also done batch using Simcoe and Liberty instead of Chinook and Amarillo. Tasted great as well.

  • Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    The most famous ale yeast strain found across America, now available as a ready-to-pitch dry yeast. Produces well balanced beers with low diacetyl and a very clean, crisp end palate. Sedimentation: low to medium. Final gravity: medium. Pitching instructions: Re-hydrate the dry yeast into yeast cream in a stirred vessel prior to pitching. Sprinkle the dry yeast in 10 times its own weight of sterile water or wort at 27C± 3C(80F ±6F). Once the expected weight of dry yeast is reconstituted into cream by this method (this takes about 15 to 30 minutes), maintain a gentle stirring for another 30 minutes. Then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Alternatively, pitch dry yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20C(68F). Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes and then mix the wort e.g. using aeration.

Tried it this weekend.

I just brewed this recipe this past saturday, and my OG was pretty low. I only ended up with a 1.073, and I'm trying to figure out where it went wrong. I was wondering if you know what your pre-boil gravity was?

Pre boil was 1.048. OG 1.090. Beertools calculates 1.096. It's hard to calculate extraction from this amount of specialty malts and the efficiency of your system. I have mine at 73% but I think it was not this much the last time I brewed it. Malt crush can also effect your efficiency. Also I would cut the cedar aging to about 4-7 days for 8oz. of cedar. Cedar can be very strong. If you can get the cedar from a humidor, that is the best. A freind of mine had cut down some Eastern Red Cedar (which is a type of Juniper)and that's what I used last. Please let me know how it turned out.
