I am relatively new to extract brewing. And I do a single hop IPA extract kit. My question is, When should remove each of the following hop additions (e.g. 60 minute boil followed by 30 minute ice bath)? 60 mins - 1 oz Citra 50 mins - 1 oz Citra 55 mins - 1 oz Citra 58 mins - 1 oz Citra 60 mins - 1 oz Citra Day 5: 2 oz Citra (dry hop) This time (previously left everything in kettle until I moved cooled wort into fermenter, topped off with water, and added dry yeast), I removed additions prior to flameout at flameout/pre-ice bath; and then removed flameout hop addition within 5 mins of ice bath. Dry hops remain until bottling at 2 weeks. Thank you for any advice/guidance in advance.
I don't understand your hop schedule (it seems to be stuck in a time loop), but I remove all my kettle hops when transferring the cooled wort from the kettle to the fermenter.
Looks like hes going for 60, 10, 5 ,2, FO, DH. Took me a little while to figure that one out here too... to OP all hops come out somewhere between FO and transferring to fermenter.
Thank you. I probably read it 4 times before posting it, and never noticed that. Yes: 60, 10, 5, 2, FO, DH is what I intended to write. Anyway, does a hop addition at 10 continue to move away from flavor/aroma towards bitterness as the wort cools (with the hops) in the ice bath for 30 mins?
The longer the hops are in the wort, the more bitterness you'll get. But the amount of bitterness you'll get during cooling is minimal. And it will in not reduce the flavor/aroma being extracted (during the boil and during cooling).
