hi new at brewing we made up this recipe and are having a little problem with the alcohol percentage, the taste and aroma seem like they will be very good. here is the recipe.
10 lbs 2 row pale malt
3 lbs munich malt
1/2 lbs cyrstal malt
1/2 lbs caramel malt
1 oz amarillo gold fwh
1 oz warrior 90 min
1 oz magnum 60 min
1 oz centennial 10 min
1 oz amarillo gold 5 min
2 oz cascade dryhop
california ale yeast made starter
2 oz gypsum
we did a 90 min boil at 150 used 6.5 gallons of water
starting gravity 1.035 after boil 1.0538 one week in first fermenter at transfer to secondary fermenter 1.011
so we have a very weak ipa any suggestions to help us out i hope i gave enough info we are going to leave the beer in the secondary for about 3 weeks. we only shook it up when adding to the first fermenter so maybe not enough 02 and we did not add any sugar maybe that would help or i could be way off
