Batch Size (Gallons): 5.5
Original Gravity: 1.067
Final Gravity: 1.010
IBU: 64.1
Boiling Time 60 Minutes
Color: 5.9 SRM
Primary Fermentation: at least 3 weeks at 62-65 F
10 lbs pale malt(2 row)

It's is as close to the original as I have ever had, the later hop additions simulate the burst hopping technique used by Bells.
A very nicely balanced beer, a classic example of an American IPA.Jesus didn't wear pants -
I love this beer. Surprisingly simple."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants

Really though. I'm surprised at the simplicity of this recipe. Simple grain bill and one hop."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants

More often than not, I find the best beers often are the simpler recipes, strange but often just how it turns outJesus didn't wear pants -

I suppose this makes them much more repeatable also.

I've got a half pound of Centennial leaf hops. Is this recipe built for leaf or pellets? And if not leaf how do I convert? I think this is on deck for the number two slot for the IPA."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants -
Weird. I doubled everything and Hopville gives me 47 IBUs..."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants

what AA did you use?
what AA did scoob use?The only thing between me and a train wreck is blind luck..... - Kenny -

Nice catch. The Centennial I have is 11.2% AA, Hopville defaults to 5%AA...
What AA% is this recipe based on scoob?
My gravity is 1.066, but that is with 6lbs of late boil DME."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants -
I believe mine was 10.9%, I will need to rustle through the brew sheets that I have been meaning to put into an organized notebook, or add my notes to the files on the computer...Jesus didn't wear pants

I had both 10.5 and 10.9 around that time, need to see what I used...Jesus didn't wear pants

it's a pretty useful bit of informationThe only thing between me and a train wreck is blind luck..... - Kenny

I used the 10.5%AA hops in this, found my paperwork from brewdayJesus didn't wear pants
