WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Ferment in the primary for 7 days, or until fermentation slows, then rack onto hops for dry hopping schedule for 5 days, or until fermentation stops. Add Gelatin to secondary 3 days prior to bottling and cold crash in fridge at 32-40 degrees to clarify beer (optional step).

This IPA sports deep gold in the glass with a creamy beige foam cap. The nose takes in a pleasing blend of floral hops along with citrus. It's a light to medium-bodied IPA with a well balanced palate that is not too bitter, consisting of citrusy hops and malt.

The finish aroma and flavor is a combination of hops and malt.

Lagunitas IPA is a MOST WORTHY West Coast IPA. This clone recipe will get you right there!!
