Gravity Estimates

Based on boiling {{CalculateBoilVolumeDisplay}} gallonsliters at {{CalculatePreBoilGravityDisplay}} for {{CalculateBoilTimeDisplay}} minutes, this will decrease your wort by {{CalculateBoilLoss}} gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to {{CalculateFinalGravityFromPreBoilGravity}}.

You were planning on an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}} so you are right on track. Nice job! You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be over. You wanted an OG of {{RecipeSummary.Og}}. It looks like it will be under.

Notes:

Everything is the same as before except the strange bitterness at the tail end has subsided to allow the malt to be more present. This is a much better beer now. Perhaps the dry hopping imparted some bad bittering qualities that, normally, a maltier beer is able to mask. I would give this 3.5/5 were more star levels available. The maltiness can definitely stand to be improved and I think incorporating a Vienna or Munich malt, even a Victory if color is not an issue, would make this beer much better. The aromatic malt can't carry this.

Notes:

Pours light yellow with half a finger of foam that lingers. Aroma is light Citra hops and slight bready yeast. Flavor starts with Citra hops and then develops into a bready malt with a nondescript bitterness, nothing is too profound though. Body is a little dense, just fine, and some nucleation sharpness. Not a bad beer but I don't care too much for the flavor, needs more hop presence and malt. More hops is easy to correct but I'll have to think about what malt I'd use to strengthen that characteristic. It tastes bigger than 3%, so I feel successful there, but I would like a beer that I care for more; I wouldn't buy more than a pint of this at a bar.
