Now that New Zealand hops have arrived at my fav hop store I wanted to make a Master Batch of wort (based loosely off the Mikkeller Hop Series) and split it into 4 2.5Gal batches to compare/contrast with Cascade.
I went through Beersmith to figure the IBUs to get them close at 60 and 20 minutes.
As I added the identical amounts for each 0 min and dry hop addition I thought maybe I should look again at the amounts at 20 min.
How much difference in flavor influence will I have with the following?
Should I just rework the recipes to have the same amounts at 20, 0 and dry?
IBUs for each batch are right around 68
OG ~ 1.070
