Missing the dry hops

I just noticed that this recipe is missing the 1 oz of Cascade Pellets added to the secondary for 2 weeks that I have in the recipe in my saved recipes. Odd, but make sure you add them!!

to the ripe old age of 2 months. I rebrewed this as an all grain recipe, 9lbs of 2row 1 lbs of the crystal 120*, the rest remains the same. This beer is by far my favorite homebrew yet.
