October 16 first place.
Ok first a big thanks to DoctorMick and the other forum members for setting this up.
I'm really pleased with the results as the method of my brewing is very simple and it shows that good beer can be made by all with out tons of kit.
So the recipe is tweaked Greg Hughes black ipa malt bill and my hop bill.
BIAB and no chill(I recently read an article on the web that said you cant no chill IPA's)
23L
pale malt 6k
choc malt .225
roast barley .170
70 min boil
citra 20g FWH
cascade 20g FWH
Apollo 30g @ 50 min
irish moss tspn @15 min
citra 10g in cube @80c
cascade 10g in cube @80c
citra 30g dry hop day 5
cascade 30g dry hop day 5
simcoe 30g dry hop day 5
mashed @ 65c for 50 mins then dunk sparged @74c for 15 mins
OG 1056 FG 1012 5.7 abv
Ferment at 18c with mangrove jacks m44 yeast
The beer was drunk six weeks after bottling which is lucky as early on the roast barley was quite harsh! but seemed to mellow out with the hops as time went on.
