    Significantly increases foam/head retention and body of the beer.

  • 4 lbs Dry Light Extract

    Dry Light Extract

    White color, mild flavor. Will produce lagers and Pilseners and can also be used to produce darker beers when used in conjunction with colored malts. Made of pale malt.

  • .5 oz Chinook - 13.0 AA% whole; boiled 60 min

    Chinook

    Spicy, Medium to Heavy.Very strong bittering ability used in all American ales and lagers. Aroma is very floral.

  • .5 oz Centennial - 10.0 AA% whole; boiled 30 min

    Centennial

    Aromatic but acceptable for bittering. Medium aroma with floral and citrus tones. Good in medium to dark ales.

  • 1.5 oz Cascade - 5.5 AA% whole; boiled 5 min

    Cascade

    Spicy with citrus notes. Slightly grapefruity.

  • Danstar Nottingham

    Danstar Nottingham

    The Nottingham strain was selected for its highly flocculant & relatively full attenuation properties. It produces low concentrations of fruity and estery aromas and has been described as neutral for ale yeast, allowing the full natural flavor of malt & hops to develop. The recommended fermentation temperature range of this strain is 14° to 21°C (57° to 70°F) with good tolerance to low fermentation temperatures (12°C/54°F) that allow this strain to be used in lager-style beer. With a relatively high alcohol tolerance, Nottingham is a great choice for creation of higher-alcohol specialty beers!

Just curious why you chose Danstar Nottingham for an American IPA? Also, without any late-additions of Cascade how much hop aroma or flavor did you get with this recipe?

Chose Danstar because it is what's cheap and available. Better yeast, better beer. As far as the cascade hops, I should probably change that to add at last 5 min. I have not tryed the recipe yet but reworked it from an all grain recipe. I guess it was goog to post it cause your observation about the hops is right on. Of course dry hopping is an option also.
