Quicksilver's Falling Down IPA 3
Imperial IPA • All Grain • 10 gal
I didn't have enough grains to make a regular batch so I adjusted the Victory and Caramunich. I was trying for 11 gallons but did a 90 minute boil and ended up with 10 Gallons. Mashed at 153F for 60 minutes in my HERMS and sparged at 168F for 60 minutes.

- 2 tsp
Irish Moss - (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.

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.

Wyeast 1450 Denny’s Favorite 50
This terrific all-round yeast can be used for almost any beer style, and is a mainstay of one of our local homebrewers, Mr. Denny Conn. It is unique in that it produces a big mouthfeel and accentuates the malt, caramel, or fruit character of a beer without being sweet or under-attenuated.
Notes
Brewed12/7/13 I'm I'm trying Wyeast Denny's Favorite 50 on this batch on one carboy and Fermentis US-05 Ale on the other. Mashed at 153F for 60 minutes sparged for 60 minutes at 170F. Boiled for 90 minutes adding hops per schedule. Cooled to 75F and added yeast which from smack pack to each carboy.

Discussion
Kegged both carboys and clairfied with Knox geletain

Racked both IPA's to their kegs, chilled to 35-40F and clairified with Knox gelatin. You bloom the gelatin at room temperature water for 30 minutes. I used a whole pack in 2 cups of water. Then I heated the mix in the microwave just until the gelatin cleared. This should be about 150F. Poured 1 cup over a spoon into each keg and purged with CO2 then pressurized at 30 PSI overnight. The first glass of so will be cloudy but after that you'll have crystal clear beer.
