I have been doing my most recent IPAs with a Grain bill consisting of some Munich as follows: 89% 2 row pale, 8% Munich, 3% Crystal 45. So kindalike an English IPA malt bill.
My wife and I got a hold of some Pliney and liked it quite a bit. She wanted to see if I could brew our IPA with the dry Pliney bill (great wife)-- which I found to be 87% 2 row, 4% Crystal 45, 4% carapills, and 5% dextrose.
Question is, my IPA is only about 1.065 OG and usually ends up with a final gravity around 1.010-1.011 anyway. So I was thinking to ignore the dextrose and do 92% 2 row, 4% Crystal 45, and 4% carapills to go for a similar taste without having to use dextrose. Any opinions? Also add what OG to most people need/use dextrose to dry it out.
Thanks
