After buying some supplies, changing my mind a bit, and brewing, I have some ingredients left and wanted to make a black IPA. I'm just going to do a 2.5 gallon batch, BIAB with 3.5 gallons of water, with US-05. What I have is:
-2 lb Crystal 20L
-2 oz Black Patent
-6 oz Chocolate Malt
-3 lb Pale Liquid Extract
My beer calculator estimate puts that at around 1.066 OG, SRM of 36.7. I'm happy with both of those numbers. Being fairly new to brewing I'm still trying to wrap my head around diastatic power, maltiness/sweetness of grain, etc. So since this isn't a kit, does this sound like a decent grain bill?
If you feel really generous, what should a hop schedule be for 1 oz each/pelletized of:
Nugget
Centennial
Magnum
Cascade
Hopefully I can make a great 1/2 batch with some leftover ingredients. Would you suggest any additions or changes?
