Help with hop additions
Posted: Saturday Sep 22, 2007 7:24 pm
I just finished putting Pale Ales Sparkling Golden Ale in the fermenter and was thinking about my next brew.
I have a Sparkling Ale can, a can of Morgans Pale Liquid Malt but want to use my Nelson Sauvin and Hallertau hops. I read on here somewhere they used these hops for the first of the J.S Hop Thief and thought i would try to make something along those lines. I dont like my beers real bitter, so can anyone help me with any recipe for my hop additions for this brew. And while i am at it what is the best way to learn about hop combinations, how much to add and so on. Is it just a matter of experimenting or is there any good reading on the subject??
Thanks in advance for any help!
