This turned out deep golden in color, with a smooth bitterness, and a huge grapefruity hop flavor and aroma. I really love this brew.
My favorite American IPA so far, crisp, clean, and refreshing, with lots of citrus-pine hops. If you want more of an East Coast IPA hop balance, you might want to add an extra pound or two of plain light dry malt extract to this.

Looks like a hop schedule on a 60 minute clone to me!
Actually a take off of Pliny The Elder, from Russian River in Cal.
BTW, if you want a true clone of this, you would be better served by using domestic 2 row and American ale yeast!

I brewed this 2 weeks ago and transfered to the 2ndry this weekend. After 2 weeks in the primary this thing is ready to drink. Smooth and crystal clear, it's a bit out of style, but it tastes great! (I've drank the 1/2 gallon that I had left over in the primary).

I also threw 2 oz of Goldings in the keg as dryhops.
I'm a little curious about some of the hop schedules I've seen here, specifically additions 1/2-way through the boil (e.g., at 30 minutes in a 60 min. boil, or at 45 min. in a 90 min. boil). I know this is in keeping with British tradition but I don't quite see the point given that max. bitterness is acheived between 60 - 90 min. and max. flavor is at <15 min (even <10 depending on who you ask. Why not just:
- at start of boil.
- with 15/10 min remaining.
- at flame-out
- optional DH
Seems to me that 1/2 way does is inefficient whether its for bitterness or flavor. Thoughts?

I was always told that in the last 30 to the last 10 will mostly be for flavor and it will give some aroma and increase aroma as you get closer to the last 10 minutes, then from 10 minutes on it is mostly aroma and very little flavor. Plus, I'd rather get a little aerobic exersize rather than risk getting a hernia.

I believe that the greatest flavor contribution occurs with 10 minutes remaining. Anything longer and it is more bitterness than flavor. Anything less and it is more aroma than flavor.
Further, I believe that the maximum aroma contribution occurs when hops are added at flame-out or post-boil during the whirlpool.
Anyone else?

Someone posted a graph here recently that had a graph outlining the bitterness, flavor, and aroma contributions, but I don't remember enough about it to post a link and I am not about to search for it. If you remember it post it.
But, Derek, your numbers were in line with that graph. From what I have read all the flavor is boiled away after 40 minutes and all of the aroma after 10. So if you wanted just a hint of hop flavor or aroma, I guess there might be some usefulness. I follow the 60/15/0 minutes schedule myself. I don't feel like paying that much attention nor will the wee ones allow me the ability to pay that much attention.
