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:

Belgian bottle with extra carbonation - pours 3 fingers of foam, dark orange in color. Aroma is centennial hops and sweet tea. Flavor is an orange and grapefruit citrus along with dank hop, but more fruit than hop. I would say that the flavor has aspects of sweet tea to it. Body is medium and soft. Overall I really like this beer as it has great flavor and aroma. As a pale ale, I would give this 5 stars. The age on this has allowed the hop hash to mellow and remove the unpleasant overhopped notes.

Notes:

Pours one finger of foam in a hazy, dark orange. Aroma is fruity Centennial hops with candy malt sweetness and an air of bread yeast. Flavor is lacking compared to the aroma, starting with a bitter orange flavor and then morphing into a sweetee orange at the end, more due to the bitterness dying off. The body is thin, too thin actually, given how watery it tastes, otherwise it is quite soft. Overall, I don't really like this beer as it is watery in mouth feel and too bitter. The centennial hops add a nice flavor, but the negatives outweigh the positives. Next time, I won't use the amylase enzyme to address the thin body, and then I'd whirlpool the hop hash at a lower temperature than 180F to reduce the bitterness contribution. 2 atars.
