English IPA • All Grain • 19.50 L
Another batch to consume old hops in my freezer. The Citra hop is new, but all other hops are old, products of 2008. AA's of these old hops are supposed to be significantly lower than the default values of BeerTool.

- 1 tsp
Irish Moss - Boil for 10 min. (omitted from calculations)
Irish Moss
A dried red-brown marine algae. Fining agent to remove large proteins. Negatively charged polymer attracts positively charged protein-tannin complexes (extracted from grain husks and hops) during the boil. This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.

Well-rounded IPA

Bottled on 1/29/13. Easy to drink, as hoppy as you imagine, and the malt characteristic is perfect. Pretty good as an IPA. Citra and Challenger seems to be a good match for the aloma. They also provide enough bitterness, so that in the future I would like to use these two to brew a citrusy IPA. Seems to me a good couple of American and British.
