Just A Quick Thought

In comparing some recipes, I realized that very few batches use the same amount of hops for bitterring as they do for flavor and aroma.  As a matter of fact, many actually use the same amount for bitterring as they do for flavoring and finishing combined.  I will have to take this into consideration when I start mixing the hops and trying to bring together the results.

I was also thinking of maybe, after I am done trying the American varieties, putting together my favorites in each category (bitterring, flavoring, and aroma) using this formula.  I have a way to go yet, but we''ll see.

The fermenter is bubbling big-time with the Columbus.
