I harvested my chinook hops a month ago and plan on brewing an APA this week.

I usually use 100g of cascade added to the boil at 25g every 15 mins. I'ev at times added Amarillo to with 50g less of the cascade - a great beer BTW!

Anyone got a good mix using Cascade, Amarillo and utilising my Chinook as either a dry hop or added during the boil?

I've never used chinook before, but i've been led to believe it's a great APA hop, akin to cascade.

Cheers.

Ended up with >800g (dry) off my chinook plant this year (as well as enough from the POR, Cascade, Golding and Victoria to so a single hop batch of each)

Made a chinook ale last year using a neutral bittering hop.

Its nothing like US chinook, or at least, mine wasn't/isn't.

A lot more like B Saaz - the kiwi hop (now called Riwaka IIRC).

Very very nice. If you have enough to do a single hop beer i would suggest trying that as you get a better understanding of what the hop does in a beer.

Otherwise, blend it with cascade for something akin to LCBA - Link
