i have some spare summit hops here would they do? are they a good bittering hop? is summit ok to use as a bittering hop in an IPA?
I would like to use the least amount of water I possibly can so would 1L be the very least you would recommend or could i get away with less?
Also what amount of summit would need to be added to say 1L to give it some decent bittering? I think I have around 60g's
I will purchase some isomerized hop extract for next batch to try it but I really need to get this beer into my keg asap.
I am already well behind.
So for example how does this sound?
Boil 1L of water and add my summit hop pellets (what amount do you suggest?)
Let water cool till FV temp. (do i just leave the hops in the boiling water or do I stir them?)
Strain it through a sieve or muslin bag and taste before adding to brew.
Does that sound about right?
