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

I really enjoyed this in a citra combo so decided to solo it in it's own IPA.

The solo Meridian ale had a Juicy Fruit Gum smell to it when it finished.

Mash temp 148f-150f should result in a more complete conversion to simple sugars for fermentation so its not such a heavy IPA.

Let it Hopstand (I used whirlpool for lack of option)

After fermentation (give it 2 weeks) dry hop with Meridian for another 5 days.

Transfer to secondary and cold crash in the fridge (if you can fit it) for 2 days or more before priming and bottling.
