Brewing Ingredients

Method

Brewing Directions

  1. 1

    Mashing

    In a large pot, heat 5 liters of water to 165°F (74°C). Add the Pale Malt and Crystal Malt to the water, maintaining the temperature for 60 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sparging

    After mashing, sparge the grains with hot water until you collect around 6 liters of wort.

  3. 3

    Boiling

    Bring the wort to a boil, then add Cascade and Centennial Hops. Boil for 60 minutes. Add Simcoe Hops in the last 15 minutes of the boil.

  4. 4

    Cooling

    After the boil, cool the wort quickly using a wort chiller or ice bath until it reaches 70°F (21°C).

  5. 5

    Fermentation

    Transfer the cooled wort to a sanitized fermenter and pitch the yeast. Seal with an airlock and ferment for 1-2 weeks at room temperature.

  6. 6

    Bottling

    Once fermentation is complete, dissolve the priming sugar in boiling water and add it to the beer while bottling. Fill the bottles and cap them.

  7. 7

    Conditioning

    Allow the bottles to condition at room temperature for 1-2 weeks before chilling and enjoying your West Coast IPA.
