Malt:
- lowered rye by 1 pound and added to 2 row
- lowered wheat by 1.5 pounds and added to 2 row
Hops:
- lowered Simcoe at 10 minutes by .25
- increased Amarillo and Citra at 10 minutes by 0.5 each
- removed Simcoe from dry hop and put .75 of it in Citra and .75 of it in Amarillo
This should all give a more pronounced hop flavor and less spice. Removing the earthiness from some of the Simcoe additions will also help direct attention away from the rye and bitterness
- The judges said it was way too much rye (even though it was between the 15-20 percent recommended. Lowered to 14% rye (1 pound less) and increased 2-row to make up for the lost OG (1 pound)
- They didn't get a lot of "aroma" on the nose. Both recommended "more hops" --- if you were to do this, I'd recommend at the LAST hop additional + slightly more on the dry hop. You need to taste test to validate this BEFORE you change anything (nothing changed now).
- Scores: 26/50 (brewer from 105 W.) and 30/50 (BJCP cert judge).
- Stuart's Impression: We can lower the rye, but it is a RYE IPA... when it comes to flavor/aroma, it may be because they were tasting a beer straight out of the fridge, which probably affected the nose and taste. Other than that. I probably won't change much because most ppl say they really like it!

Efficiency was pretty crappy. Mash was super tight which may have been the problem (1.25 pounds per quart). Mash tun just didn't have the room
Extra nice bag to hold hops for dry hops
