Hi All,
In HBD #5736 Jeff Walls asked about brewing classes other than Seibel and
UC Davis.
The American Brewers Guild may have something that interest you
(http://www.abgbrew.com/). They are in VT but they do a "distance learning"
program.

Subject: Imperial IPA IBU?
So I'm getting ready to brew an Imperial IPA this coming weekend.
I did one a year ago with an OG of 82 and 196 IBU based on some
recommendations that I couldn't go high enough. In the end I don't
think I went too high, but it was mostly bitterness and not much
aroma or distinctive hop flavor. I did EKG at 5 minutes left in the boil
and it wasn't enough.
So, for this one, I'm shooting right now for an OG of 80 and IBU of
114. Main bitterness is planned from from whole leaf Zeus hops. I've
got a bit of Fuggle, then finishing with Cascade. My thought is to put
20 g of Cascade at 5 minutes out and another 20 g at flame out.
Without getting into dry hopping or a hop back, what do you think?
thanks,
Paul
