Citra Forward West Coast IPA Recipe?

[Donoroto]

I did 3.5oz of both citra and mosaic in the whirlpool and then I dry hopped with 4oz of citra hash and 2oz of mosaic pellets.

I guess that was a 1/2 gallon batch of Wayner’s? I used well over a pound in my batch.

Haha yeah, I scaled it down to roughly a 6 gallon batch. Honestly meant to only do 3oz’s in the whirlpool but I don’t think it’s gonna be a bad mistake.

It is not a bad mistake.

I cold crashed for 3 days and popped on CO2 this AM at 35psi. Going to let that go for 2-2.5 days. Question though is if I'm burst carbonating it and do the roll technique, doesn't that defeat the purpose of the cold crash letting everything fall and clear out or am I missing something else?

High PSI is to serve it quickly. If you wanted a beer to settle for a week, set at 12 or so and leave it there.

A bit. I only do the shake/roll when first kegged, then let it be (at 35-40 psi) for 2-3 days

If you are fermenting and serving in the same vessel then I do the high psi CO2 & roll method, as soon as fermentation is done. Then start the cold crash.

Note that CO2 dissolves into water better at 38 F than at 68F. But in any case it’ll end up the same.

I cold crashed it at 33 for 3 days then bumped it up to serving temp 37-38. I’ve had it at 35psi for the last 1.5 days with a couple rolls in there. I’ll turn it down to 12psi tomorrow and hopefully have some good pours this weekend.
